Tim Whitaker, creator of the nonprofit The New Evangelicals who runs the organization’s hugely popular TikTok account, said part of @EndChristianNationalism’s success on the platform can be attributed to its focus on giving people verifiable facts.

“What I like about their account is that they’re giving a lot of just data. You know, hey, here’s what this person said, here’s what this person did,” said Whitaker. Simply reporting instances of Christian nationalism, he added, is critical in a time when the average American is likely unaware of the extent to which Christian nationalism is fueling national politics.

“I think it’s really important going into 2024 more than ever, that there are Christians who are loud about resisting such an ideology and movement for the sake of all their neighbors,” said Whitaker.
