The editor-in-chief of the far-left "Mother Jones" publication declared on Friday that it was an example of "creeping Christian nationalism" when a flight attendant on an airline wished her and others to have a "blessed" evening.
Clara Jeffery, the EIC of the left-wing outlet, wrote about her apparent experience in a post: "Creeping Christian nationalism alert: Alaska Airlines flight attendant just wished us a 'blessed' night as we landed in SFO (!) to groans. Other adjectives that would have sufficed: great, awesome, fabulous, amazing, fantastic."
As of Saturday morning, the post had over 2 million views on X, with many, even those on the left, roundly criticizing the editor's remark about her apparent experience with the flight attendant.
In the replies, YIMBYs for Harris cofounder Armand Domalewski wrote "Respectfully, I’m a pretty left leaning guy and I wish folks a blessed day fairly often. It’s just a nice thing to say."
Jeffery shot back, arguing that, "It’s a matter of respect for the audience before you. Respecting their space and norms and wishes. Dominant cultures always feel they have a right to enforce their norms and intents. And…way off Alaska Airlines' brand."
Kyle Mann, the editor-in-chief at the Babylon Bee mocked the comment from Jeffery, writing, "Bless your heart." British rapper Zuby simply wrote, "lol."
User Peter Henlein wrote, "What do you say to a person when they sneeze around you?" to poke fun at was widely seen as an overreaction.
Jeffery's most recent article on Mother Jones is titled, "Michelle Obama’s Speech Was the Best. Doug Emhoff’s Was the Most Groundbreaking.” She has written in her X bio that she plans on "migrating to Threads.”
