A transnational religious right seeks to replace democracies with faith-based ethno-states

Evidence

Under President Trump, the United States has become a flashing red beacon of hope for a new, global, religious, right-wing populist movement. It calls itself a “global conservative movement” and claims that it seeks to “defend the natural family.” But it’s really about taking down modern democracy and replacing it with authoritarian, faith-based ethno-states. You could call it a kind of global holy war. — Katherine Stewart, The Power Worshippers, 959
