Evangelism doesn’t only apply to those who push the story of that West Bank-ian born guy with the Mexican name… but I did wonder whether to wordswap before posting.
Thanks. Now I’m having an existential crisis about whether an Encyclopaedia of Deities would be filed under Reference or Fiction. Animism is something I don’t know about; but each to their own I suppose. I remember one girl saying it was tantamount to paganism but the reception she got suggested the room didn’t agree with her. I can’t really comment.

“Paganism” carries a lot of political and theological baggage, particularly among Christian Evangelicals, such that calling something “pagan” can be seen as derogatory rather than explanatory.
Ok, this guy sounds like a right wing moron, but he’s got a point. Among a lot of Leftists, ideology is fairly religious, especially the ones waiting for some revolution to broadly remake society. Or the accelerationists pushing for a purifying apocalypse.
Yeah. It’s got purity tests to separate the faithful from the nonfaithful. It has vicious infighting about heretics/apostates. It’s got a series of myths about a revolution and then a promised land.
The Left as a single monolith is the work of fiction.
True. But it needs to be one to be an effective boogeyman in a speech like this.
As is The Right?
Authoritarians fall in line. Anarchists fall in love.
Yeah, authoritarians from either extreme. Big up to you, for your Anachro-evangelism once again.
Feel like I know more Anarchists who are pagan, but I’ve never stopped to count.

The Animist Evangelical showing up with an encyclopedia of deities?

I don’t understand what you’re talking about.
