yes? Have been told by several queer friends from latin america for example that they've felt alienated from white/global north queer spaces bc of the casual mockery of their beliefs (with the justification that they are only mocking the "bad ones")

you don't get a pass to believe the sun is councious and you can communicate with it just because you're queer

And you don't get a pass to mock people without that having consequences (e.g. POC especially from global south leaving whitedominated spaces time and time again because y'all care more about whining about metaphysics and spreading the gospel of Dawkins than actually getting off your asses and doing shit)

I am a POC from the global south. I am also an atheist. There is no excuse to believe something objectively wrong and which was historically used as part of a system of oppression. Why do you have this idea that POC are helplessly religious (and white people are evil atheists) when there are so many POC leftists who are atheist and so many highly religious white people?

You should be skeptical of "highly religious" white people in the global north. It's just a cultural affectation and a community thing and has nothing to do with actual belief. Even the ones that go to church and profess to believe in god and go on mission trips. It's all kinda bullshit.

I don't have this idea and never said nor implied it. I have repeatedly been saying that this is a thing I have seen occur time and time again, not that it is true for every single person and case. I would appreciate it if you would not misrepresent what I'm saying comrade. It doesn't help anyone

I can assure you the meat-only chud who sells scam supplements isn't a POC from global south.
