History nerds, was there every a time in history where the native population of a country fought their own police force on behalf of foreigners after said foreigners stole massive amounts of money from the country’s treasury?

primordial sin of racism
heretics (replace that with ism and phobe and makes perfect sense)
hates apostates the most
magical words
worship
destruction of other religions
afterlife to aspire to ("the right side of history")

It is missing a divinity and proper religious texts. You can make a point that White Fragility it's kind of a religious text but it's more the word of a priest rather then divinity since they have no divinity.

edit: I think "science" is closest they get to religious "texts". Climate change, social books on gender or sex etc. you can't oppose or make fun of "settled science" so I guess it fits.

Yes "Science!" Is their religious set of texts. You're not allowed to question, criticize, or otherwise go against it. The only people allowed to read it or interpret it must be part of the Priesthood (a scientist) and even then any deviations from the norm are heresy.
