Frankly I haven't seen that with Christians since...

Jerry Falwell and his moral majority stopped being on television 24/7. That was over 20 years ago...maybe 30.

Most Christians are very quiet, even while being persecuted by Hollywood, politicians, etc. And that persecution happens on a daily basis. Part of that may be the success of labeling anyone espousing Christian values as practicing "hate speech," but I have a feeling there's going to be some push back.
