    can't we just laugh at all of these groups at once? redditors finding new and even less cool cults doesn't make religion any better

      I actually argue that it kind of does, if indirectly.

      Atheism is no guarantee that someone is a comrade and being religious in and of itself is no guarantee that that person deserves to be mocked and shunned. Well fine, maybe some religions really have it coming.

          No. Not even on average. In fact in my experience someone being an atheist has almost no direct influence on where they stand on a right/left axis. I'd even argue in my local area there are more right wing atheists than right wing religious people, though that may be a weird Bay Area thing.

              It is, it is. Police robots with lethal fucking weapons almost got legalized locally, and still might be very soon. :no-mouth-must-scream:
