Will be interesting to see how it plays out. And, for that matter, if The Cult™ will be considered among the faithful or not.

Who needs democracy when you have Christian fascism?

We need to buy each of the Q-15 a white horse. IYKYK.

Has anyone defined what exactly anti Christian bias is and where it displayed?

like "blonde extinction" fear.

It's self-imagined victimhood.

Some fundie EVs think that everyone is "against them."

This gets worse if they believe that God "commands" them to hate people, i.e. " I don't hate gays, I'm just obeying the will of God," etc. and people push back against such hate.

Another example:

"Let's put up a Nativity scene on the town square instead of a generic secular Santa Claus or 'Happy Holidays' sign."

'OK, fine, but to be fair to everyone, we'll also put up a Hanukkah menorah and a Kwanzaa display too.'

'No! You hate Christianity! You are trying to erase my religion!"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_persecution_complex

21st century

The September 11 attacks boosted its development.[13] The concept that Christianity is being oppressed has been popular among conservative politicians in contemporary politics in the United States, who use this idea to address issues concerning LGBT people or the Affordable Care Act's contraceptive mandate, which they perceive as an attack on Christianity.[14] The application of the contraceptive mandate to closely held corporations with religious objections was struck down by the Supreme Court in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.

Hornback noted that the Christian persecution complex is widespread among nationalists in Europe, who feel that they are defending the continent from a new Islamic invasion.[3] In 2013 and 2019, journalists have pointed out that "American Christians have a persecution complex", while noting that the persecution of Christians is real in the Middle East.[15][16]

As of 2017, Christian persecution complex has had an impact on popular culture, with films which "imagine embattled Christians prevailing against entrenched secularist opposition".[17] In 2018, David Ehrlich, a film critic, described how the persecution complex is fueled by films and media such as the God's Not Dead saga.[18]

As of 2019, some nationalistic dispensationalists have promoted a narrative of Western persecution of Christians, in order to claim a position of marginalization and disadvantage.[19]

I imagine it's items such as not wanting the 10 Commandments posted in public schools, not having preachers as quasi-"counselors" in the public schools, not allowing for (Christian) prayer in the schools, etc. The Christian Nationalists want to promote their religion and trample over other people's rights in the process.

While Anybody's answer is essentially correct, the short answer would be any bad press that (supposedly) good Christian people get for non-Christian statements or behaviors. What I think you're going to see from this are legal challenges to the Sullivan vs. New York Times U.S. Supreme Court decision that gives the media, both secular and Christian, the flexibility to hold public officials accountable for their actions.

I'm guessing they mostly mean violence or desecration of Christian churches, kentish.

If they actually left it at that, it would seem OK but why single out only Christian protection?

Knowing the agenda of the people behind this initiative from their other actions and comments, I think it opens the door for anything they don't like.

Where is their outrage and protection for anti-non Christian groups?

I was just reading of religiously-motivated attacks in the past year, 8 were against Christians, 60 against Jews, and 12 against Muslims.

Yeah. We know what this is really about.

Merry Xmas y'all

Just wait until the appointment of White for the role kicks in. She is hardly mainstream in her views
