I think that take is controversial because it's obvious utopian nonsense detached from any material reality, the majority of the working class globally are religious, that's not an endorsement that's just a fact and there's hasn't been any configuration of atheism that would make a convincing dent in it

Obviously nobody actaully gives a fuck about the theology, not even the believers, there's only one real God and one real religion out there and its name is Capital

And in a fundamental way it's already killed these religions and turned them into corpse puppets

What would religion look like without any capital scaffolding it, that's the question commies should be asking, not "hOw cAn wE dEsTrOY iDeAS iN PeOples hEaDs"
