Change Type: Update

Change Details: In the original version of this article, the following sentence in the paragraph ‘Limitations’ under the Discussion section contained a typographical error, “The transformation of meaning around some of Americans most sacred civil religious symbols – soldiers and veterans represents a symbolic shift that justifies violence against the government rather than restrains that violence in defense of the nation (Dawson 2019, Gorski 2017)”. The article has been corrected.
