None of those things are negatives, this is just anti-intellectualism. Maybe OP has been corrected by douches in the past. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks OP is trying to normalize shaming critical thinking while finding like-minded individuals.
Or this is an attempt at even more critical thinking, i.e. “These are fine concepts, but if you don’t reckon with the context of what you’re talking about before throwing one of these out because it kinda fits you actually bring conversations down and keep people from exchanging more pertinent ideas and information.”
They probably could have communicated that better if that was their intent, but that’d probably kill any humor potential which was probably more of a priority here.
Exactly, thinking and talking about these things is perfectly alright and at 20 they are all quite new to you, so it’s very reasonable to be excited about them.
Yeah I’ve noticed an uptick in atheists on lemmy recently, I don’t support religon at all because of dogma but I also will never support atheism either
I don’t see anything wrong with any of it. Why is thinking or speaking of any of those things being framed as a negative?

I think you’re being extremely generous to OP.
You must be fun at parties. Maybe it’s just self-deprecating humour?
I mean, I don’t talk propaganda at parties, do you?

What does any of that have to do with atheism?
