Yes and no really. Not everyone that considers themselves a christian nationalist wants to see their beliefs imposed on others.


This is a gross oversimplification. Or to be less combative, you're making a digital issue out of one that's inherently analog. Everybody (sans anarchists) wants SOME of their morality enforced via a central governing body. Atheists, theists, Jainists, Hindus; everybody.

Almost nobody wants ALL of their morality enforced via a central governing authority. Outside of a few Jim Jones types that's a fictional boogyman.

Some want more than others. When I look at publications like Project 2025 and see stuff like arguments to ban all pornography and House speaker Johnson noting that “I try to do every day what my constituents want. But sometimes what your constituents want does not line up with the principles God gave us for government. And you have to have conviction enough to stand up to your own people”
....
lets just say it gives me pause. And he certainly is not alone in his pov. I fear a right wing backlash to all the wokeism from the left that is just as shitty and authoritarian in nature. We dont have to freak out about it..but be aware of it.
