I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.
Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.
The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as “we’ll just handle it”) plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.
Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
They do have a dogma. Their dogma is “God’s not real”. A lot of them would love to shove that down their throat and act as if you are a scourge on the earth and are “irrational”
That’s not dogma. Dogma is laid down by a central authority for a group, of which there is none for atheists.
Yea there are some shitheads out there, but they’re the exception not the rule.
Stop trying to make it seem like atheists are some organized monolith of people when they’re not.
Christians aren’t inherently organised either. There are large churches like the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican communion, but you don’t need to be a part of these to be Christian.
The Bible isn’t a unifying document then?
It is, but Athiesm has unifying beliefs as well. Albeit not structured.
Atheism, by definition, has no beliefs. A lack of belief is not a belief.
That’s agnosticism.
