deep deep hater of any "im an atheist i do not conform to any social dogma about religion" especially when its from some "skeptic" of a particular religious establishment. i dont suck the dick of any church but like... if your whole identity as an atheist is based on that you hate whatever religion you grew up (usually a branch of christianity) the social norms and establishment of this religion have affected you, congrats.

#as an autistic person i hate this sort of black and white thinking that you are UNAFFECTED by these social norms #like sure you might disagree with your upbringing and that's fine #except if you ask a white atheist if a brown person can be an atheist you get a lot of Interesting answers #as an atheist i do believe atheists are part of the ingroup of religion we are brought up in #regardless of how rationally distant you are from practice #yes i see anyone of any religious or ethnic background as capable of atheism except #i do not have any particularly strong opinion on confirmation in protestant and catholic christianity #i dont have any strong opinion on b miztvah in judaism #i have no idea if hindus have birth rituals #and i frankly dont think being too educated in ANY and all world religions is necessary to consider yourself atheism even if its welcomed #but the idea that you are sociologically separated from religion just because you're atheist is laughable and rooted in white supremacy #because only Enlightened White Peole who Hate the Catholic Church TM can be atheists #is ridiculous in my opinion
