Patheos blog post. It's specifically about "higher education," as in evangelical educational institutions, but the general concept may be more broadly relevant.
Faction 1: Conservative culture warriors -- Trumpy "Christian Nationalists." Complementarian. (My summary)
Faction 2: Color-blind (but anti-nationalist) conservatives -- Never Trumper conservatives. Complementarian. (My summary)
Faction 3: Racially progressive complementarians -- From this point on, I have so far barely skimmed, so can't summarize
Faction 4: Gender egalitarians
Faction 5: LGBTQ+ advocates
Here are the comments I posted there, to which as yet there have been no replies:
So where do those of us who are two-time Trump voters who believe Scripture teaches gender egalitarianism fit in? I have quite a few friends in this camp.
I'm a two-time Trump voter, and will vote for him again if he's on the ballot. I think the Never-Trumpers are dolts. I am willing to accept the views of people like Shelby Steele and Carol Swain regarding CRT. I do not believe Scripture is "affirming" of LGBT practices.
But I am persuaded Scripture teaches full equality of men and women, with equal authority and responsibility in the home, and no distinction in permissible "roles" in the Church.

Also, if someone thinks there would be value in moving or copying this topic to a venue open to participation by unbelievers, I have no objection.
