Something that’s has irked me for some time now is how many people latched onto the Atheist movement as an edgy teen but now look back on it in reverence and not shame. This seems to be a common theme in academia and is prevalent even in communities like this one. The lamentation of the “golden-age” of atheism is peak hubris. Dawkins, Hitchens, and crew were deconstructionists of the critical theory variety. Their lives were consumed by the need to disprove God and religion. However these were the shortsighted desires of pseudo-intellectuals, they accomplished nothing productive, and if anything, opened the door for the screaming children that replaced them. I don’t think Dawkins, in his wildest dreams, ever saw his fall come from his own hubris. The intellectual argument over dismantling religion somehow disproving the existence of a god is what fueled the SJWS and their own brand of hubris in the early 2000’s. BTW Dawkins, this is what happens when you remove the “tumor” of religion, you hack. As you see today, Dawkins was swallowed by the stupidity he helped bring about, the Maximilien Robespierre of the modern era, begging for trannies to not cut off his head.

This isn't exactly correct, it is certainly the majority but something like 14% of Atheist voters are Conservative (That number is rising.)
I'm one of those, there's a perfect example of how some of us older Atheists just got fed up with a lot of the arbitrary bible thump and shit that just made no sense in the 80's and 90's by pretty much any sect of the bible, forced onto us by our parents at the time.
Atheism really got fucking stolen by these faggots who clung to it and "Re-invented" something that isn't a belief system to begin with, using it as a "Fuck you" to their conservative fathers while they were gagging on cock. I really think that's why it's so heavily leftist infested now-a-days.
You'd have to be fucking braindead though to be an Atheist over being an American. It's clear as fucking day to me that Christians are in fact being persecuted, silenced and even physically attacked by the radical tranny faggots and gays. Fuck the only semi-based alphabet people are the lesbians that are standing up against that bullshit. These idiots are literally trying to take rights away from anyone they disagree with while at the same time screaming they don't have "Rights" that are really privileges.
It is fact at this point that Christians are being persecuted by regressive leftists who love to connect it to fictitious white supremacy because it's considered a white religion, plus they have all that tradcon fear mongering to fall back on if their message gets ignored by the masses, with said fearmongering actually being the tradcon's fault.
In regards to religious reform, Christianity is known to being pliable to it because of the new/old testamate split, unlike Islam where any legitimate religious reform is impossible as it would require both rejecting the core scriptures known as the Quran, and condemning Mohammed because of his atrocities, thus any alleged religious reform is nothing but historical revisionism.
The atheist community should have made efforts to reject the emerging regressive left before the bastards got in and destroyed the community before ultimately moving on when everyone left. Said bastards left a skeleton crew who continue to use the corpses of these communities to pump out regressive leftist propaganda.
It is a well known fact that individuals with left leaning views who do not adapt in response to the threat of the regressive left ultimately go regressive themselves. The only way to shield yourself from the regressive left is to be openly hostile to it.
Oh they do it on a bunch of pro "Woke" bullshit. Not just the White Supremacy stuff but also HEAVILY with the LGBTQ propaganda and they are doing it in a way so as to get people who are more center (What's left of them) to support it. IE: Anything is "XXPHOBIC" so if a Christian very calmy says "Oh yeah, you know I don't really agree with that, I'll pray for you and hope your life is good!" They will get cancelled by the social media platform and potentially doxxed and threatened.
Yes, Christianity is very subjective sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worst. I don't want to make direct comparisons to Islam as I am of the belief Islam is just objectively a violent religion hellbent on conquest which I feel they have proved all throughout history up until modern times and Christianity really does not behave that way unless they are trying to stop the spread of said radical Islam.
See, that right there is the biggest fucking problem. Atheism was never INTENDED to be a "Community" at all period. Atheism was simply an adjective to describe someone who has no belief system. As per usual though, in the leftist linguistic rodeo it was taken, morphed to be what they wanted it to be and then used as a weapon to spite the Christians. The only thing first generation Atheist voters really collectively fought for was clear separation of Church and State which is supported by Christians as well seeing as it's our constitution. I'm not sure at what point exactly the left really dug it's heels into Atheism and made it it's own.
Yeah that's exactly it. "Ultimate Tolerance will then breed intolerance." For every progressive move the ultra progressive make an equal and opposite regression is had until the Overton Window has shifted enough in favor of the progressives to make things like casual racism/discrimination against Whites/Christians socially acceptable and not viewed as regressive despite the history being the same but the roles swapped.
Yep that's exactly it, this radical political correctness and overly progressive society must be opposed at all costs else all is lost.
Not every Atheist out there is the reddit brand Atheist, I just do not have the ability to believe anymore of my own choosing. Make no mistake though, I am absolutely an American and as long as I draw breath I am willing to defend the right of Christians to express themselves and their religious believes as granted to them under the first ammendment.
Fuck the woke!
Agreed. Imagine an old house in the middle of a rainstorm, and the Atheists are tearing it down because they don't like the color of the walls. At the bare minimum, don't do it until after you have another house to stay in, or at least when it's not fucking raining.
