Why be anti-anti-theism if you are not anti-anti-SJW as well?

2019-08-25 23:38:14 UTC  

Never confuse the 'a' prefix for the 'anti' prefix

2019-08-25 23:38:31 UTC  

I'm not anti-anti-theism, I'm just not anti-theist myself

2019-08-25 23:38:46 UTC  

I'm anti-theist in a tangent sense of being misanthropic.

2019-08-25 23:39:12 UTC  

I've actually been distancing myself from anti-SJW's as well

2019-08-25 23:39:19 UTC  

I don't follow most of the channels anymore that keep speaking about it

2019-08-25 23:39:29 UTC  

It's unhealthy if it goes on for too long

2019-08-25 23:39:38 UTC  

We haven't made progress, it's time to change tactics

2019-08-25 23:39:53 UTC  

Thing is, there has been made a lot of progress.

2019-08-25 23:40:03 UTC  

Yeah ok sure

2019-08-25 23:40:10 UTC  

I guess maybe it's just diminished too much, is what I mean

2019-08-25 23:40:17 UTC  

The return of investment is low now

2019-08-25 23:40:18 UTC  

A lack of progress made so far would be far more harmful if we didn't point out the power they had.

2019-08-25 23:40:49 UTC  

I just believe it's time to start unifying on common ground again

2019-08-25 23:41:06 UTC  

Well. Using the anti-sjw angle to get at having a different moral foundation from the norm that created the sjws is a good way to go.

2019-08-25 23:41:08 UTC  

That's why atheists and Christians have been meeting in the middle, they don't want to be angry at people all the time

2019-08-25 23:41:11 UTC  

Considering human behavior and history, that would require a war

2019-08-25 23:41:13 UTC  

So instead they work on shaking hands

2019-08-25 23:41:24 UTC  

@ETBrooD And what is that common ground to unify around?

2019-08-25 23:41:49 UTC  

The preservation of the west against the radical destruction from communism and similar ideologies like Islam

2019-08-25 23:41:56 UTC  

Space exploration used to be a great unifier, and should still be. But nowadays we seem perfectly happy to burn up with our rock.

2019-08-25 23:42:04 UTC  

The excessively faith-demonstrating christians might be obnoxious, but at least they conform to a moral foundation that you share with them in no small part.

2019-08-25 23:42:13 UTC  

@ETBrooD How do you defend yourself against Islam in USA with it's 1st Amendment?

2019-08-25 23:42:17 UTC  

As opposed to communists and moslems.

2019-08-25 23:42:23 UTC  

The information war

2019-08-25 23:42:37 UTC  

Information war is OK to me.

2019-08-25 23:42:49 UTC  

Just spread the truth about Islam is good.

2019-08-25 23:42:53 UTC  

But that is anti-theistic.

2019-08-25 23:43:01 UTC  

No it's anti-Islam

2019-08-25 23:43:06 UTC  

I'm not spreading anything against Christianity

2019-08-25 23:43:16 UTC  

It is anti-theistic in a sense, but specifically only against Islam.

2019-08-25 23:43:23 UTC  

I would, they don't seem to give a fuck about Jesus that much nowadays

2019-08-25 23:43:37 UTC  

Christianity is a smaller evil, but it does no more harm than good.

2019-08-25 23:43:54 UTC  

I agree somewhat yeah

2019-08-25 23:43:55 UTC  

Well they aren't as much of a military influence anymore

2019-08-25 23:43:56 UTC  

While general anti-theism is just a bunch of passive-aggressive fedora-tippers being assmad about people having something bigger that gives them meaning.

2019-08-25 23:44:09 UTC  

Stem cell research, civil liberties, and them being around you cannot mock Islam either without being hypocritical.

2019-08-25 23:44:17 UTC  

Agreed @Zakhan

2019-08-25 23:44:45 UTC  

This is more relevant to Europe with hatespeech laws and even blasphemy laws (protected by conservatives as well, despite anti-Islamic speech being primary target).

2019-08-25 23:44:57 UTC  

Conservatives are shielding anti-Islamic information war.

2019-08-25 23:45:04 UTC  

My anti-theistic stance is simply: Hey you dumb fucks. There will be hundreds of more lifetimes past yours, and at some point, the planet upon which we stand is gonna be fucked, so stop bitching about your hopeful afterlife, and get to work on fixing the issue of the fact that we're all gonna die.
