Bad Faith: Christian Nationalism's Unholy War on Democracy

Absolutely sick. Especially the end when Jan 6 occurred and the mother of Ashli Babbitt insurrectionist had the gall to say that Capitol Police murdered her. These were not peaceful protestors. They were armed and were threatening any government official attending an official government ceremony. Instead of mounting legal attacks, MAGA chose lethal attacks. Now we are stuck with an absolutist president. Absolutely sick, that Republican leaders chose to reject all common sense and glorify in the attack on Capitol Police and government employees who may never overcome their physical or mental injuries. Absolutely sick for Republican leaders and influencers to parrot the foul-mouthed cheeto puff who just conned people out of money, just so he can proclaim that he is rich. Trump squandered his father's money, like any other self-important, hedonistic rich kid. And Trump's "blessed" appointed government officials are just that. There is not a shred of decency or Christian piety that can be recognized. They lie behind the Cross, claiming that Republican morality is better than Democrat morality. I am expecting a sequel, especially on Pete Hegseth.

Before you vote, you should watch this. The key to a functioning democracy is education and critical thinking skills. This video at least gives the viewer somewhere to start when preparing the basis for their electoral choices in the coming and all subsequent elections. While this movie may not replace what good Economics and Civics classes should be taught, it still provides enough information to allow the viewer what is afoot from certain quarters. I encourage EVERYONE to engage your curiosity to see what this is all about. I apologize for any and all redundancy in this review but the character minimum is driving that well after my point was made.

Bad Faith has garnered praise for its insightful analysis and timely subject matter. Owen Gleiberman of Variety described it as "one of the scariest films" he's seen in recent years, noting its effective portrayal of how Christian nationalism undermines both constitutional freedoms and the concept of free will . David Reinbold of The Humanist commended the film for being "informative, sobering, chilling, frightening, but always with vestiges of hope," emphasizing its educational value and call to civic engagement .

While I am one of the people who already knew a lot of this stuff (and the reels and reels of information they had to cut I guess for brevity's sake like Barry Goldwater's role in The Southern Strategy and how Reagan expanded it) this documentary needs to be seen by everyone.

In fact I found it strange that they also didn't mention Project 2025 which is widespread and available for everyone to see, just go to the website to witness the Christian Nationalist terror OPENLY afoot. As of today mainstream media is talking about how Trump Republicans want complete control of the government which is not how our US government is meant to work. We have established checks and balances for a reason, every 10th grader who passed World Civ should know that.

There's no conspiracy theories here just for information on just how far back this stretches with the Moral Majority in the 70s and 80s. If anything, pertinent information is missing.

And that is where the problem lies. Reasoning skills and critical thought. The American education system needs an overhaul of full thought intervention. Children need to learn empathy, reasoning skills, and how to detect lie from truth.

This documentary sheds a lot of light on the Christian Nationalist infiltration of the republican party. How it continues to mold those who cannot/will not pull themselves back and view the world in a different lens.

I especially enjoyed seeing the Christians of our country truely following the word of Jesus condemn and shame those with manipulative intent to gain power and suppression through their very own religion.

This documentary is one that should be spoken and watched with family members and friends who are stuck in that right wing thought tunnel.
