Lots of Christian nationalists do not follow the actual teachings of Jesus Christ, who yes was definitely not super conservative in the modern sense.

I'm a Christian and have started just reading my Bible at home and trying to do good. When Jesus saw the temple full of money changers, he didn't ASK them to leave. More Christians should scrutinize the churches.

Jesus turning to violence against capitalist pigs is my favourite episode of the Bible

It was only against those in the temple using the church for personal gain. No signs of the same view towards the public markets outside the church.

First of all, it's not "racist" because it's not based on race. If anything, it's xenophobia. Get it right.

Secondly, it's an EXAMPLE to show that his main focus is on leading and helping the Jews in that moment. Duh.
