Talarico’s big bombshell: Talking about Christianity. The “Christian Nationalists” don’t want him doing that. He’s talking about the wrong kind of Christianity.
“Deep State Censors Texas Christian” would be the headline we need to reach the people who could benefit from his message.
Former Catholic, now atheist. In my fundamental years growing up as a Catholic and being a member of our Catholic school and church, we were entirely service based and helped do those things Jesus was all about: feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, visiting the sick (hospice, nursing homes), etc. We never crammed our religion down someone’s throats. Today, I still live Christ-like even though I’m not christian.
I’m not in Texas, but one of my favorite videos of Talarico is his sermon to explain the difference between Christianity and Christian Nationalism. This sermon isn’t cramming religion down your throat - it goes through the dangers of Christian Nationalism and presents it in such a digestible manner. It made me angry on behalf of Christians (given that I’m a former one who strived to do good for others and serve my community like Jesus in the bible did) since Trump and his cronies co-opted Christianity.

Long video, but it’s really good. Video hits harder since it was before Trump was re-elected.
“They have co-opted the Son of God. They’ve turned this humble rabbi into a gun-toting, gay-bashing, science-denying, money-loving, fear-mongering fascist. And it is incumbent upon all Christians to confront it and denounce it.” - James Talarico.

Precisely. Talarico is a Christian who actually takes the part about looking after the needy and the sick, and having empathy for other human beings, seriously. We can’t have that in Texas!
