"Christianity revolves around a martyrdom narrative. Many Western socialists have martyrdom narratives. The West is historically Christian. Therefore, there is a direct influential link of Christianity on Western socialist martyr narratives."
The bad-faith argument is making the extraordinary claim that "a background of a certain religion in a region means that even countercultures in that region will act under its cultural hegemony".
It's literally pointing at all of the West and saying "I can use Christianity to explain this". It's a giant leap across a chasm in logic.

Perhaps Christianity-centrism.
