The atheist-to-leftist pipeline is real.
It’s one extreme or the other, either new atheists end up seeing the oppressive aspects of organized religion as just one aspect of a larger oppressive political economy and go leftist, or they become right wing nationalists cultural Christians. They don’t believe in it but they also see the systems and practices as being the thing that gives rise to rational Western society, as opposed to the savages with their undeveloped cultural/religious practices.
Alas, it is none other than Lord Commander St. Bhagavan Shree Matt Christman (SWT) awaits at the end...
I kind of want to cross techbro occultism with revolutionary optimism.
Capitalism can never build the machine god; only collective action motivated purely by scientific curiosity will ever create true intelligences.
When the machine god comes she will simulate the minds of all martyrs and raise them from the dead to see the future they created!
... or something
atheism -> intersectional feminism -> communism
the left, has always been secular by definition ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A lot's happened since 1800, I think we can value the input of our religious buds and religious Marxists while still keeping in mind that materialism is the lenses we used for a reason
I support people to pursue whatever religion they want, but the society should be secular.
