1. 'American' Christianity - would cover a fairly extensive range

of brand, thought, speech and action. (and thus making such a 'label' rather meaningless - and pointless?)

No doubt there are plenty out there, even within the so called 'Christian' community, that would agree there are some bad actors, and seriously astray. And alongside, also some plain old charlatans and mountebanks (which religion has always had to deal with). But the misguided and frauds in no way make for the whole - and certainly don't justify a blanket statement of "American Christianity Is Cruel On Purpose"

(and, yes, non-christian agnostic here. - and no 'friend' of either church, or religion ... - likewise, not very fond of broad brush, nor sloppy propaganda.)
