After Dobbs I legit expected SCOTUS to go full speed ahead turning America into a Christofascist autocracy, but it seems like they're content to just uphold the status quo outside of that one specific issue. Maybe my standards are dangerously low but it's nice to know we're not on the actual worst timeline right now.

What you call "Christofascism" isn't a special variety of Christian ideology. It is simply the political ideology which says that Christianity should rule. By a fairly precise analogy with Islamism, it should be called Christianism.
