What's the difference between "Reddit" atheism and regular old atheism? (hexbear.net)

Inspired by some of the discussion in this thread. I don't think it's appropriate place for that discussion there, but hey why not have a separate thread for it

If I think religion is not good in general, am I Reddit and cringe and basically Richard Dawkins?

My atheism is just "I don't care"

That is how far it goes.

Sincerely, unironically, I love that for you.

religion had a big impact on my life without my consent so I have strong feelings about it. fortunately it doesn't come up much so I can also just vibe and not care most of the time.

I think it's just that Reddit atheists are annoying and thinking too hard about the philosophy and whatnot just doesn't make sense to me.

that's totally reasonable. thinking about philosophy helped me grow a lot as a person as I unlearned YEC and learned the true history of the world so it's stuck with me shrug-outta-hecks
