Many hundreds of people read this piece, and whenever we received feedback from people who identified with one of the worldviews, if they believed their views were being misrepresented, we made adjustments in line with their feedback when we felt that the case they made was convincing (but like we acknowledged in the piece, we’re not going to be covering everyone’s perspective here). Your characterization of what the world looks like from the point of view of a Social Justice Advocate seems like something that a Social Justice Advocate would genuinely disagree with.
That process gives you what people believe they should believe and not what they actually believe. The sequences have a lot about the problems of belief in belief.
If faith, piety, humility, and self-sacrifice were the driving values for American Christian Conservatives you wouldn’t see them driving big pickup trucks. Being gun-owning wouldn’t be central either, if those would be the values that people actually used to make decisions.
If you believe that those are the actual values, then you would predict that American Christian Conservatives have a problem with Trump, but they don’t.
If you doubt the importance of loyalty, you can ask Social Justice Advocate “How important do you think it is for white men to be allies?” Allyship is about loyalty and the answer you will get is that it’s very important.
