- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That may very well apply here, too, but by "Nat-C", I was turning around Christian Nationalism and making it match, phonetically, the party that it most closely resembles.
If people are not already familiar with Christian Nationalism / New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and the plots and schemes of movements like the Seven Mountain Mandate, they should definitely brush up on it.
Marj is associated with Christian Nationalism and the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) by the way.
I find it rather alarming to see that some people seem to be platforming Marj (and Tucker, FFS!) just because she's criticizing PEDOnald on the Epstein thing and things like needless wars. Sure, a broken clock can be right twice a day, but people need to be very, very wary of people like her. Same goes for Tucker. I could see those two forming a ticket, by the way.
ok got it now, wasn’t familiar with the basic terminology yet
It's funny because conservatism isn't an ideology, it's a disposition.
