The guy used to be an independent thinker and now he's a dyed in the wool NPC captured by the mind virus!
He's (or was) a Regime Libertarian:
It's easy to be a "free thinker" when you're making fun of Christians from "flyover country", because they'll generally keep going to your shows and have no leverage in getting your contract terminated. Not so easy when it comes to making fun of blacks screaming "racism"
Unless he's changed he used to defend Christians. It's one of the reasons some liberals considered him different. He would say the vast majority are good people and misunderstood by Hollywood.
I remember him being a mainstay in New Atheism in the early 00s. Think he even did a Bullshit episode on Christianity.
Yeah he's an atheist but he wasn't edgelord atheist.
