On the nature of the modern Christianity
The endgame of campaigns like Collective Shout’s, which pressure payment processors to censor adult and LGBTQ+ content, isn’t about converting the broader population but about mobilizing a loyal, ideologically committed minority—likely conservative Christians—for further objectives. By framing issues like pornography or LGBTQ+ visibility as moral threats, these campaigns strengthen the resolve of their core supporters, who are driven by a Manichean (good vs. evil) worldview. Alienating large swaths of the population (e.g., youth, secular groups) is a calculated trade-off, as each loyalist, motivated by this binary ideology, is far more valuable than a neutral or unconverted person. These loyalists can be directed toward various goals, unquestioning as long as the cause is cloaked in moral or religious rhetoric.
