    Social media pushing people to adopt disingenuous positions in order to make the haters upset + people confusing that with an actual belief system and seeking out similar people in the last public gathering place that isn’t a Walmart. Reddit atheism died and was replaced with algorithms that prefer trad lifestyle influencers.

    Or religion is the fentanyl of the masses.

      Yeah I know a terminally online elderly man who simultaneously believes a bunch of heinous racist shit about everyone who isn’t German like he is, LOVES the Orthodox Church, but also won’t go to one because he can’t coexist with Serbs. People are picking up weird shit from their online spaces.
