I think "Easter Worshiper" is oversold as an evasion. I take the point, that it is one step less blunt than "Christian," and that may make it attractive to some who are religiously skittish. But it's not a big deal.

In fact, if it reminds people that worship is part of Easter, even in other countries with no Easter Bunny, that's a plus. "Killed while worshiping" may have more impact.

I think the intent is to avoid a clear connection between 'Christian' and 'terrorism victim' because The Narrative is that Christians are terrorists.

It's not an evasion, it's an outright lie. Christians CELEBRATE Easter; they do NOT worship it. We worship God in the Trinity, though it should be noted that our prayers are to God through Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost.

Late to the fair but this is not an evasion, it is a deliberate mischaracterization of Christians: we do not worship Easter; we celebrate the same as the day of Christ's resurrection. To state otherwise, as the former President and Secretary of State both did, is - at the minimum - disinformation. However, given their histories, this is more probably yet another in their anti-Christian comments.

I don't know if "we" have the stomach for ending capitalism but given that reverting to some sort of hunter/gatherer society as these people seem intent on would require the elimination of a large part of the human race, I'm pretty sure history will show that "they" do indeed have the stomach for it. For all that socialism lags capitalism, they got us beat hands down in the mass murder department.

NYC: No Skyscrapers. Blow them up and tear them down! Damned business phallic symbols!!! Run off some capitalists and their tax money! NYC don't need them!!

The collusion dream is dead. But the stink of it lingers on. And on. And on. And On. It's just the Dem's water-wings keeping them from drowning. Now me, I can't drown in this ocean of Shadenfreude.
