Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Lemmy atheists --> hexbear/lemmygrad atheists
Honestly, I was an atheist for a while before I went back to Catholicism and my biggest gripe with my attitude back then, and what I hear now is that very little has changed in refocusing the struggle of "religious" oppression (from primarily Atheist ideologues) to the systems of capital that allow for religion to be used as an expression of oppression. You destroy Capitalist White Supremacist Patriarchy and purge the right-wing ideologues and you'd have a defanged religious system.
Conservative/Fascist ideology use religion as one of its many cloaks, but as we've seen with the neofascists and pagan fascist that float all over the internet, Christianity is not their primary interest. Resurrecting violent white supremacist as a modus operandis in totality is what they are most interested in. They often use Christianity as a way to ignore materially important and sounder ideological arguments.
