Kinda cringe. American evangelicals are bad enough to not have to point to some Arabs and be like “this is so bad it’s like my country’s geopolitical enemies.” The Taliban successfully defeated the US military, US Christians traumatized LGBT+ folk among many others, not the same.
Not to mention that the US (and therefore, at least to a considerable extent, Evangelical Christians) have propped up extremist Islamism in the Middle East and Central Asia. Taliban have emerged out of that.

Exactly, US evangelicals are so bad making a comparison would downplay their badness.
