    Oh I still hear libs repeat it a lot. I just think it misunderstands evangelicals in the present day. IMO as someone who was deep into evangelical culture for 30 years, it's not their religion that drives their politics, it's that they tend to be massive racists, classists, bigots, etc and they launder their views through their religion. Not all evangelicals at all but a majority, I firmly believe.

      Sure, sure. The New Atheist shitheads who do the Logic And Reason sociopathic dance are as prone to fascism as any American. And they're as eager to chant the refrain.

      I'm just saying Sinclair Lewis can't be blamed for failing to predict this precise moment in history.
