It’s not the atheist part that sucks, just that a community for people who don’t believe in something’s (as opposed to a community for people who believe in something) lowest common denominator is basically hating something else, so you get a lot of condescending posts.
Doesn’t help that a lot of posts are also very edgy, because atheism tends to skew towards the younger generation. I cringe every time, but at least it’s not as bad as people taking the opportunity to be racist in the name of atheism.
I think all communities can be annoying in this exact way if they resort to virtue signaling / dunking / repeating the classic lines, as opposed to working to form new arguments.
i’m not religious, but anti-religious enlightened atheist garbage is some of the worst content out there
are you sure you didn’t catch religion off someone who was contagious at the time?

Atheism is the rejection of thiest’s arguments. You’ll have to get the ball rolling over there before we can do anything.
Really? Pedantry is as bad as fatwas and religiously motivated killings?
How quaint.
