Inspired by some of the discussion in this thread. I don't think it's appropriate place for that discussion there, but hey why not have a separate thread for it
If I think religion is not good in general, am I Reddit and cringe and basically Richard Dawkins?
There's a lot of answers here, but I think this is the most useful.
There's lots of different ways to be atheist, but Reddit Atheism is a specifically Christian phenomenon; (typically) people who were raised in Protestant Christian culture, and stopped believing in God without really examining any of the other beliefs and underlying assumptions that came with it.
Being ex-religious in general seems to have some association with being especially toxic about religion. The most stereotypical New Atheist in this thread is declared to be ex-Muslim, for example.
and it's never from any sort of principled stance or understanding of Islam, it's just because for the last twenty years Muslims have been a socially accepted punching-bag in the english-speaking world.
