About this episode
TENE goes on a field trip to Idaho where they visit the Church of Christ Christian and their militant political wing, the Aryan Nations lead by Richard Girnt Butler, a man who slurs his slurs. Carrying the Christian Identity tradition from the 1970s to the 2000s, Butler created an armed compound in Hayden Lake, Idaho where he developed a complex heraldry and continued the racist theology of his dumb religion. Connected to terrorist groups like the Order and establishing the Aryan World Congress, Butler became a key man in the American White nationalist scene and beyond.
