I always considered myself agnostic leaning atheist. I consider leftism to be antithetical towards religion. All religions have a class structure to them, do priests, rabbis, or imams not exist? And what about marxism, is karl marx not venerated by some leftists in a weird atheist sort of way?

    It's the same shit in America and probably worldwide.
    Like, the good things that come from religion are always outweighed by the bad, the reactionaries always outnumber the rest. The rhetoric that oppresses everyone but white men is consistently backed up by the bible, especially LGBTQ+ these days. People where I live haven't even moved past the "homosexuality is a sin" phase yet, and they talk about it openly without fear of retaliation or opposition. And, I know some people will disagree with me here, but looking at Islamic traditionalists in the Middle East and Indonesia is like looking in a fucking mirror. All Abrahamic religions should be abolished, at the very least.
