Capitalism turned religion into a brand identity. Look at JD Vance: trad Catholic convert because he “just really liked that the church was just really old.” For many, it’s just another in-group to exclude ‘undesirables’ from and legitimize bigotry.

The Hyper-Individuality that comes with unchecked capitalism is inherently incompatible with the teachings of Jesus and because of that they are actively ruining the religion to make it fit the ideology. They did it to most types of American Protestantism, now they’re doing it to Catholicism.

His wife is conveniently “agnostic” and only “culturally Hindu” now, which is interesting too. I wonder what that conversation was like. “Honey you have to give up your religion for the voters”
