But expose or question them and the kind words quickly become guilt, hate, shame and slurs. Slurs like \u201cWhite National Christian\u201d, \u201cBook Banners\u201d, \u201cNazi\u201d or &#8220;Fascist&#8221; are used.

For example: Is the \u201cGood Samaritan\u201d&nbsp; parable about growing the government or helping your neighbor directly?
