It is very suspicious of freedom, uncomfortable with diversity hostile to science, unfriendly to reason, contemptuous of personal autonomy. It sees America as a religious nation.

Despite our constitution, despite the legacy of the Enlightenment, it appeals to millions of Americans and threatens our freedom.
