Really does make me wonder how unrepresentative of reality the various flavors of "extremely online right" really are. I'd wager that right wing Pagans, TradCaths, Orthobros, and Christian Nationalists are each well less than 1% of the US population. Self-identified Pagans as a whole likely aren't even 1%.
What is a little harder to gauge is the degree of representation of random "normie" internet comments, i.e. ordinary people blowing off steam in the comment sections on various social media platforms and older media sites. There I see a lot of generic Christian sentiments expressed.

I totally agree on that last part.
