  • Summary

  • The provided text is an article by Jamin Bradley, a pastor and theologian, that critiques the concept of political nostalgia, specifically using the slogan "Make America Great Again" as an example. Bradley argues that this type of rhetoric often overlooks the historical context of the "greatness" being referenced, which may have only benefited certain groups at the expense of others. He uses biblical examples and the ideology of Nazi Germany to illustrate how a yearning for a romanticized past can be harmful, as it ignores the complexities of history and the evolution of society.
