Isn't the phrase "anti-Christian bigotry"

Advertisements [?]

basically just a rightwing buzz phrase created to perpetuate misogyny and homophobia?

Since Christians have quasi-institutional privilege in our country, isn't the phrase "anti-Christian bigot" just tossed at people to silence criticism of rightwing Christians who seek to maintain a kind of political and cultural hegemony here in the US?
