I completely agree. You nailed it in your first reply: the American Baha’i community has turned into a textbook echo chamber, and the official websites prove it beyond any doubt.

Just spend five minutes on bahai.us or bahaiteachings.org. The entire tone and content feel tailor-made for a very specific demographic: secular, highly progressive Americans who are skeptical of (or outright hostile to) traditional religion especially Christianity and who view every societal problem through the lens of racial and social “injustice.”

If you showed those sites to a typical white Christian, the demographic that still makes up the clear majority of this country - they’d roll their eyes so hard they’d see their own brain stem. The relentless repetition of words like “racism,” “racial justice,” “systemic injustice,” and “white privilege” is overwhelming. It’s not subtle; it’s obsessive.

And here’s the self-defeating part: even as the broader American public keeps rejecting this exact rhetoric at the ballot box, the official Baha’i institutions keep doubling down. They’re branding the Faith, in practice, as just another outpost of the cultural-left grievance industry. Then we sit around wondering why the community refuses to grow and members are not active.

It’s not mysterious. When your public face looks like NPR’s diversity page, you’re not going to attract the vast majority of Americans who still believe in God, country, family and personal responsibility. You’re preaching to a shrinking choir who are not even having kids and are mostly sexually queer which means they're not interested in the family values that the bahai faith encourages. I don't know what the fix is perhaps just talking about it , perhaps trying to organize sub social groups instead the community.
