Many people are hesitant to identify as atheists because of the social stigma they may face, making it hard to pinpoint connections and differences among this group.
Maybe if the (blacks/gays/women/etc) weren’t so loud and in your face, we could accept them as equals.
Go fuck yourself with the horse you rode in on. This some high level ignorant shit for someone that claims to be so spiritually enlightened. You need to reexamine your biases.
It’s pretty cringe to compare the circumstances of atheism to the kinds of oppression black people, women, and lgbtq+ have. Atheism has been a source of oppression as much as atheists have been oppressed.
It is ‘cringe’ to blame any oppressed group of people for being oppressed, that’s the whole point.
Does South African persecution of whites suddenly undo what black people in America have suffered through? Of fucking course not, that’s idiocy.
The fact that a very few atheist states were established in the last century, and a few of them have been oppressive to the religious in that state, does not magically undo thousands of years of persecution. Especially when Atheists are still persecuted and put to death. There are nearly as many countries today that still criminalize atheism (13 total) as there have been atheist states throughout all of recorded history (~20 depending on how picky you want to be).
