It’s “controversial” for one reason and one reason only, because it’s a White male with an opinion that isn’t left leaning.

It wouldn’t matter if the opinion was far right or center right, in 2024 the media, entertainment industry, etc. wants to silence all White male opinions that aren’t left leaning. That is 100% all this is about.

I'm going to disagree a little and say this is more about anti-Christianity.

I enjoyed the debate with Nawlins, and he seemed to move a little bit, but his opinion is essentially "You can have religion, but don't really talk about it. Talking about your beliefs is zealotry. Pretty please. Don't tell anyone that something is diabolical, or that anything perceived as good could actually be morally or spiritually complex. That's dangerous. Just keep it to yourself."

It's the same frame of mind as the oft-misused separation of church and state, which most of the Left will interpret as "You can have your religion, but you can't really use it to defend/vote/promote political change." Which is a ludicrous position.
