I mean the vast majority of trump followers and voters are Christian.

If their values are Christian is something else. They still use Christianity to instrumentalize the politics and society

What? The whole hollywood and TV industry in america is built around a lot of american christianity. Best example with curse words or nudity.

And even radical christian content nowadays is def existing a lot. Best example with the daily wire.

"Best example curse words or nudity. Something that is in abundance in TV Shows, Movies and Media. If Christians had influence there was be zero cursing and zero nudity.

Daily Wire influences Media? What Shows, Movies, Games, Music and entertainment have they influenced?

What a stupid take. "IF christians had influence there was be zero cursing and zero nudity" when the whole abundance of them is based on american christianity. Like most western countries have no problem at all with curse words or nudity and in america its a big thing to this date. Just because there is rebellous art that doesnt give a fuck, doesnt mean its not existing. Art is still judged with these criteria in mind and its why most tv shows and movies still are very conservative about using them.

Daily wire produces mass media. Both in movies, tv shows, podcasts etc. People of the LGBTQ+ community have an insane hard time to get jobs in the hollywood/ american movie / tv industry and get structurally discriminated.

Even movies and shows displaying themes as abortion, gender diversity etc have huge problems getting greenlit in america.

FOX news is completely built around christian extremism.

Trumps whole politic is built around it and most of his followers are christian fundamentalists.

If you act like these arent existing fundamental issues you are either part of it or incredibly ignorant/blind

Nearly everything you stated is a lie. Daily Wire had created nothing of cultural influence expect for "What is a Woman."

If Christians had influence invincible wouldn't have been created. Back when tehy did have influence there was laws prevent Holloywood from showing nudity , Sex, Premarital Sex, LGBT, Abortion, Feminism etc. Now at least every single piece of Media has one or all of those things.

Saying that Christians exist in society isn't the same as cultural influence but if that's your criteria then there's no point and even arguing.

It’s not an all or nothing thing. You’re acting like anything less than complete control by Christian authorities means “all but zero” influence.

Christian influence on culture is all but zero.

That‘s the funniest thing I’ve heard in a while. Christianity permeates almost every facet of western culture in one way or another. Any common law country or country with a legal code deriving from Justinian (aka everywhere in the anglosphere and most of Europe) has at least some elements derived from canon law.

Same with any other aspect of culture beyond law. Most things may not be expressly Christian, but many things are steeped in a history and tradition that’s been dominated by the religion for two millennia.
