Also known as the “Xtian Taliban.” Armed “Christians,” most of them being white racists and supremacists hiding under the umbrella of Christian nationalism, who wouldn’t hesitate to use violence or even murder to ensure that their pro-Christian un-Christian ex-president—who lost the 2020 US election to a white pro-abortion and pro-LGBTQ+ “socialist” presidential candidate—continued to be their “anointed” political savior.
Guesstimate how many ultra-MAGA “patriots,” blue-collar “evangelicals,” and January 6 Xtians would be convicted and sentenced to a jail sentence for answering the call of their Pharisee-in-Chief to storm the Capitol so that he’d illegally serve a second-term in office.

Ex-Christian
Frequently a person who was forced to grow up in a "traditional" fundamentalist and/or evangelical church has grown up and become an adult and has been able to leave allowing them to form their own views on the world and have the autonomy to make their own choices.
While some argue that Xtian means a devout follower of christ because of the Greek letter X (chi) and its involvement in translation from greek to english that was used in the past, however, as we no longer live in the 1630s we can recognize that language has significantly evolved to the point where old words frequently have new meanings (ex.A- anything said on tiktok these days) therefore, Xtian no longer reflects its previous meaning.

"ur going backpacking with a boy this summer?! wait you front & side hug?!?!? ur only bringing one tent?? But we learned in,Solid ground super lit bullshit hyped, youth group at church that thats's sinning !!!... don't you wanna save yourself for marriage & go on a missions trip with the rest of us?! We are all going overseas to save needy people then hopefully we can all find a godly man to marry then give them children!! Why aren't you going?!"
"Well Mary-Faithlyn-Charity Smith, as a Xtian, I no longer support purity culture as the concept supports the patriarchal ideology that people who aren't cis-male are inherently inferior & need to base themselves on the male gaze in order to have value. As a human with full bodily autonomy, I choose to go with my equally autonomous partner. As for the sleeping...we only need one tent.
In addition, the idea that my going on a vacation to a country with people you deem 'needy' in hopes of recruiting them to my cult by 'saving them' is gross &is toxic modern-day colonization. Im not gunna pay $$$$$ to get myself into a different country, go undermine their workforce by taking jobs I'm not qualified for then demand they say thankyou. To then push a way of life/beliefs on them as if theirs aren't valid while same time infantilizing them with egotistic clout pics is slow-burn terrorism. I refuse to be part of that and that is one of the many reasons I left the church and am now an ex-christian (xtian for online brevity)."
