Universities and Nazi Christian Nationalism
To paraphrase JD Vance’s attack on universities and upper education, “the government should honestly and aggressively look to destroy the university system of higher education because it is the enemy to American Christian values” (November 2021) This is fundamental to the Christian Nationalist(CN) movement currently propagated by the Nazi regime in the White House and is the fundamental pinning of the regime’s attack on Harvard university
What is one of the essentials of the CN propaganda is born out of American societal’s longstanding debate(since 1740) about the haves and have nots with respect to education according to historian Heather Cox Richarson in her Letters from an American Substack column The have nots have argued that higher education threatens Christian values and even goes so far as to relate government and universities in cahoots with each other to decimate the Christian fabric of society But among other issues under this cloak of being a proponent of Christian values is the elimination of the boundaries of Church and State thereby attacking the First Amendment’s freedom of religion
In Nazi Germany the CN movement led to book burning and the regime’s tolerance of Universities that touted the Nazi way of thinking(“We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity. Our movement is Christian.” Adolph Hitler 1928)
