<p><strong>“As we recognize that humans are human, and worthy of human rights, conservative white america is dying this slow demographic death and rebelling.”</strong></p>
<p>Why is it that the exact arguments used against trans people and DEI were being used in defense of slavery in pre emancipation America? I reached out to <a href="www.andrewlseidel.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Andrew Seidel</a> to discuss this patter because he wrote about and debunked all these arguments in his book<a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-founding-myth-why-christian-nationalism-is-un-american-andrew-l-seidel/16329174?ean=9781454943914"> The Founding Myth: How Christian Nationalism is Unamerican</a>. (Linked at<a href="https://bookshop.org"> bookshop.org</a>, not the rainforest oligarch's store.) We talk about how, despite the debunking, authoritarian thinkers keep clinging to biblical literalism to justify withholding human rights.</p>
