    Dude I live in a 90% catholic country, do you really want me to start on how much brainrot catholicism caused to people in my country? Do you want me to explain in detail in various ways how LGBT people and women get fucked by backwards catholic dogma being the prevalent way of thinking about social issues like that?

      Why, yes. I expect you to engage with what's actually being said.

      Starting with the fact that excluding religious people immediately locks out over 90% of the population from your leftist movement.

        Tbh most of those 90% aren't actively religious, it's more of a cultural thing than true belief. Church on Christmas and Easter and then forget about it till next year.

        But the ones that are devout (I'd guess around 10%) cause a whole lot of damage under the banner of catholicism so the rest of the 90% kinda goes along with it.

        I'm just really skeptical of actively religious people, they tend to be really fucking nasty about it in my experience and I don't want to pretend they're not nasty.
