Fascism and Christian Nationalism with Billie Hoard, Part II

Today, we have Part 2 of my conversation with Billie Hoard about fascism and Christian Nationalism. We bring queerness into the conversation and talk about how queerness and fascism use each other, how fascism and fascistic ideas have roots in the early US (and even before), fascism in different countries, how the Weimar Republic was friendly to queer people, and there are pop culture references to Babylon 5 and Battlestar Galactica. It is a longer conversation (about 72 and a half minutes!) but I think it is well worth listening to, especially because we talk about the beyond scary similiarties between fascism in Nazi Germany and the MAGA movement. After this episode, the show will go on hiatus for an undetermined period of time until I can figure out a way to make the show sustainable. I have been tossing ideas around and if anyone has ideas, please feel free to let me know. As always, please rate and review the podcast on whatever platform you listen to it on.
