Yeah, I wonder if there is a term "boogeyman politics". Politicians who run on promises to save people from imaginary problems, like returning the "merry Christmas" phrase or save people from LGBTQ people or save people from abortions or save people from incoming caravans, etc.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
