I get that we all miss our heady preadolescent days of watching The Colbert Report and blaming everything on the religious right in the most tumultuous moments of the Dubya administration, but these sorts of cultural critiques have gone quite stale and just aren't nearly as useful in the current sociopolitical environment.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation, whose membership is over 95% Christian, estimates that between 28 and 34 percent of non-commisoned officers in the US Military are Christian Nationalists and Dominionists. These are the people who stormed the Capitol and are subscribing to QAnon theology. They will happily undermine our national interests if they think it will bring about the rapture.

I don't know why the left is now so adamant that the religious right no longer exists as a threat. The de-secularization of the left as a former of backlash against New Atheism is one of the worst developments to happen on the left over the past decade. The religious right is still out there in high numbers with significant power in the GOP and in the military, and they haven't gotten any better.

The left is still convinced that the religious right is a threat.  The only thing I've seen change compared to 2010 (when I began arguing about politics on the internet) is that there has been a shift from attacking religion to claiming that Progressive Christianity is the real Christianity.
