Institutional pushback against extremism and conspiracism matters, but it will only accomplish so much. What will make the difference long-term is finding ways to strengthen the faith's community and harness its sense of history in healthy, productive ways. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm reminded of what @robertpjones told me last year: "History and culture matter a lot. Partisanship today is such a strong gravitational pull. I think what we’re seeing with Mormons is that there’s something else pulling on them too.” https://t.co/u9LSR7JSTO — PolitiTweet.org

@DamonLinker QAnon, yes. About 1/5 (though my guess is that there’s a 10-20% slice of US Mormonism that’s always latched onto the RW conspiracy theory du jour). But the stolen election lie has captured a large majority of white evangelicals, whereas with Mormons it’s still (barely) a minority — PolitiTweet.org
