Thank you for this deep and sobering exposé. Your framing of the convergence between technocracy, anti-democratic philosophy, and pseudo-religious nationalism is among the most important analyses I’ve seen. I just want to offer one key clarification that may strengthen your thesis even further.

What you’re describing in the “TheoBro” movement—this merger of authoritarianism, tech supremacy, and a theocratic mandate—is not authentic historic Christianity, but a heresy known as Dominionism. This distortion of the faith teaches that Christians are called to take over earthly governments and “rule in Christ’s name” before His return. It’s a spiritual counterfeit that aligns disturbingly well with technocratic control structures, especially when fused with Network State ideologies.

It’s important to note, however, that biblical Calvinism—in its truest historical and theological form—is not synonymous with Dominionism. The doctrines of grace and the high view of God’s sovereignty in Reformed theology are foundational to biblical Christianity itself. While some who promote Dominionism wear a Calvinist aesthetic (e.g., quoting Kuyper or invoking "sphere sovereignty"), they often misapply those teachings to justify an unbiblical mandate for conquest. The danger here isn’t Calvinism—it’s the hijacking of Christian language and authority to legitimize authoritarian political agendas.

Ultimately, true biblical Christianity—not Dominionist revisionism—is the real obstacle to the globalist project, because it proclaims Christ alone as King, warns of deception, and resists the merger of Church and State into a synthetic, compliant world religion.

Appreciate your work exposing this dialectical convergence. The more we expose the counterfeits, the more clearly we can defend the genuine.

Thank you so much!! Your clarification is on target and well articulated! I greatly appreciate the time you took to flesh that incredibly important distinction out so eloquently! The counterfeit veil of Christianity used to justify authoritarianism is one of the most insidious aspects, of this authoritarian endroachment.

You're so very welcome! Very happy to share as it's something I've been writing on too on Substack, happy to collaborate and/or help in any way I can. To start, you could grab this booklet called "Dominionism. Kingdom Now- and what does the Bible say" by Mike Oppenheimer. It's a great little pamphlet you could read in 20 minutes to give you the power of identifying language for historical grounding- and distinctions that are key to honing the argument. God bless you! -Summer
