Hegseth and His Tatoos
Religion scholar Matthew Taylor offers helpful analysis
Pete Hegseth is a deluded religious extremist who stands in the tradition of The Crusades, The Spanish Inquisition, Settler Colonialism and the genocide of First Nations. “Unchristian Nationalism” is Christian heresy and part of the playbook of contemporary US fascists. Hegseth is NOT an authentic representative of Jesus Christ and his Gospel of love.
This NPR segment is instructive and illuminating. Especially about Hegseth’s tattoos, NOT just the Crusader Cross, and connections to White Supremacy. Religion scholar Matthew Taylor offers helpful analysis.
