    The evangelical movement’s outsized influence in the US is rooted in the Republican’s “southern strategy” to make a big umbrella of the fringiest racist, chauvinist and fundamentalists, and use them to elect shitty hate-bait politicians.

    They aren’t actually powerful, someone just handed them a really big megaphone.
