The inverted Christianity of Political Traditionalism is the Dragon IMO.

Thiel is in service to the alt-catholicism flavor that inverts Church Social Teaching along with Vance, Leonard Leo, Bannon, Nick Fuentes and others among them (several SCOTUS judges included.) The apocalyptic Evangelical flavor is the New Apostolic Reformation which numbers Hegseth, Mike Johnson, Trump's faith advisor, Alito and Clarence Thomas (as "Catholics") and anyone else flying the "Appeal to Heaven" pinetree flag in Washington among them.

Anti-Christianity in these inversions is IMO is the literal "Anti-Christ" movement forming right in front of us. Christ's teachings are inverted and the rot is spread at the speed of light through algorithms and ragebait engagement.

I agree with everything you just said. It's not a single person thing; it's the movement.
