During the recent podcast in which Stephen Wolfe, author of the book, "The Case for Christian Nationalism," voiced his hopes that a united right-wing movement will be able to exploit the murder of Charlie Kirk to get the government to suppress the left and impose its Christian nationalist worldview on the nation, he also declared that right-wing Christians must "habituate ourselves into disgust" for left-wing causes, particularly when it comes to LGBTQ issues.
"We have grown up in a time where homosexuality became normal," Wolfe lamented. "I don't think transgenderism has become normal because I think it's so disgusting by appearance, but I think we have to habituate ourselves into disgust for the left-wing causes, particularly the social issues."
"When we see a rainbow flag or we see a transgender flag, that seems so normal to us because we grew up in that, we were kind of habituated into accepting that," he continued. "Even if intellectually we say, 'That's evil,' we don't actually feel it."
"What the left has done to most older generations of the right is [condition them to] look at the Confederate flag and feel disgust," Wolfe claimed. "If there's a Confederate flag at a restaurant or bookshop or whatever it is, you probably wouldn't go into it. You're like, 'I don't want to be seen in there.' ... But if someone is nowadays, they're waving a trans flag, if you look at it and don't feel repulsed by it in the same way you'd feel repulsed about a right-wing sin, then something's wrong with you."
"Something's wrong with you and you ought to tell yourself, 'I need to feel disgusted at that,'" Wolfe proclaimed. "You need to habituate yourself; you need to get into the habit of looking upon left-wing degeneracy and feeling disgust. That has to happen."
"Why has the so-called racist right, been suppressed in this country?" Wolfe asked. "Because people were trained to feel disgusted at racism. The same thing has to happen with the left and with left-wing causes as well. We have to think like that. We have to feel that disgust."
As we noted previously, Wolfe's book on Christian nationalism was published by Canon Press, an imprint founded by Christian nationalist pastor Doug Wilson, who recently established a church in Washington, DC to "calibrate the Christians" in the Trump administration into his theocratic worldview. Wilson already has a foothold in the Trump administration thanks to the fact that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is an open admirer of Wilson and a member of a church within Wilson's Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches.
