GNON: Causality is "God determines success/merit via Capital (material conditions reflect merit)" SJW: Inverse-- "Capital determines evil/sin via *success/merit* (material conditions reflect inverted merit) From "the rich are holy" to "the rich are unholy"

I think they're more orthogonal, SJW is agnostic on the correlation between capital and merit, but usually defaults to "white people bad" for historical reasons; consider how SJW overlooks poor whites, almost like it's a feature

They think "white people bad" because "the material conditions of *whiteness* force people to become bad because of privilege/incentives etc which, if left unchallenged, are DETERMINED to produce genocide"

yeah but that's ad hoc, their premise is completely historical, and if they took a longer view they would just condemn humanity and/or nature itself

It's less "historical" than you say, I think. It's pure myth. The history would be "found" to support the myth with or without its existence.

a myth is still dynamic, the "sense" of their perspective is entirely embedded within their worldview that only takes the last 500 years as context

To clarify, for me, History is only ever a Myth.

ah, in that case I would adjust it to say their myth is without grandeur (peasant, folk, ignorant, superstitious), in the sense of lacking appreciation for the thousands of years that actually make up human history

They specifically choose the protagonists of black Americans because they "had their history stolen from them"-- this is the Original Sin.

which happened roughly only 500 years ago - it's a very protestant disease

A very Protestant slab of Divine Providence.
