I just assumed OR was Kyubey.

It's a Tumblr joke.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-27 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
What a random ass thing to be hostile about

(Anonymous) 2016-06-27 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Who says it's hostile? According to Christianity, Hell is the best after hours party in the universe and it never ends.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-27 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
That's not in line with classical Christian theology, anon. Popular Christian folk-mythology of hell has never really been theologically supported.

Exactly

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
What is that anon talking about with party? So being dumped into a volcanoe of hydrocloric acid is a "party?"

But you're right. The Simpsons-esque and comical interpretations of hell are just jokes. The most the bible says is that hell is a place of burning and misery/death. Not a place where you and the devil are buddies and sitting on beanbags drinking martinis.

I'm more surprised that anyone would fantasize about someone who looks like such utter white trash, with that dumb baseball cap, scruffy facial hair, and jug handle ears, than I am that a Christian has fantasies about an atheist.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Not white trash. That's the skinny white guy with a wifebeater or some obese guy with bad hair. This guy just looks like your typical "can't dress for shit" straight guy who isn't as hot as he thinks he is.

Well, he is one of the few Youtube!famous atheists who isn't also a mouthbreathing misogynist, so you could definitely do worse.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
You mean you don't enjoy the soothing, dulcet tones of The Amazing Atheist screeching his head off about 'duh feminzazi'? :D

(And yes, in case this wasn't incredibly obvious for anyone, this is massive sarcasm. The Amazing Atheist is a whiny, sweaty, banana-in-anus-inserting, hot-oil-on-balls-pouring psychopath, and is the biggest misogynist on Youtube this side of Davis Aurini.)

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
SA

As much as "feminzazi" is fun to say and sounds like an exotic African coffee brew or something, that should be "feminazi". :P

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, some have said "femi-nazi." You see this printed this way in journalist publications sometimes. But either or, we guess.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
One of the few famous atheists ANYWHERE who isn't also a mouthbreathing misogynist. Something seems to happen when people start listening to atheist men that turns them into raving assholes. (I'm atheist myself and it's so frustrating to be represented by dicks like Richard Dawkins.)

And they are suuuuuper salty about Steve, too. Search "steve shives" in youtube and 99% of the hits that aren't his channel are other atheists whining that he's a pussywhipped cuck or something equally erudite.

I'd love to scare him up some more viewers, but I think most feminists (and most women, really) have been quite justifiably turned off the New Atheist movement altogether.

This is such a white athiest thing though

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah there are white male athiests who are normal, but so many of the white ones believe in superiority or being arrogant. Even Bill Nye is guilty of this shit (but he'll also defend women which is kinda surprising). It seems that a lot of athiests who aren't white don't go on giant tangents about hating people, but they never stfu about being "saved."

But there are probably poc athiests who do the arrogant thing too. Who knows. Don't really hear much from them.

I realize this was three years ago, but: http://fandomsecrets.dreamwidth.org/905309.html?thread=695794269#cmt695794269

(I was looking that up because it was a secret I posted involving my dislike of the New Atheism movement. At the time, hardly anyone knew what I meant. Times have changed . . .)

It's still true that atheists are a despised minority, though, and polls still show them as perceived as the least trustworthy, they have no real shot at politics, etc.

But that said, I have no fucking idea why so much of the New Atheism movement is steeped in misogyny. Almost every YouTuber I've seen aside fr Steve Shives has a collection of videos dedicated to how stupid he finds feminism, or even women in general, and it's heavily influenced by evo psych - itself largely pseudoscience, ironically - and the goddamn MRA/PUA crowd.

Why? I got enough misogyny back when I was an evangelical Christian. Feminism is a huge part of why I left the church. So, "organized" atheism thinks it's evil, too?

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
He is my favorite YouTube atheist. (Even though I don't want to bang him because lesbian.)

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Any idea why this is? I mean, you'd think becoming an atheist would wake you up to all the damage that religion has done to womankind throughout history, and perhaps make you more likely to side with feminists. But it doesn't seem like that's the case with the Amazing Atheist (I think I threw up a little typing his name) and his youtube ilk.

[personal profile] ariakas 2016-06-28 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
My guess is that it's simply because those who actively identify as atheist (as opposed to humanist or simply "non-religious") are male. Any group that is disproportionately one thing or another is at risk of turning into an echo chamber.

That and the passive identification with other quasi-political internet movements: the MRM, Anonymous, the alt-right, etc. Feminism might not oppose atheism - if anything, it stands in lock-step with it for reasons you've identified - but it does oppose the other movements New Atheism has aligned with, and therefore must of course be evil and wrongheaded.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-28 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, very good points. It wouldn't surprise me if there was a sharp divide in the aspects of atheism that male atheists and female atheists are enthusiastic about -- for example, the Amazing Atheist was really fixated on scripture's opposition to masturbation for a while. The man really has his priorities in line.

It made me happy to see a black woman atheist on Youtube (AtheistMinority). We need more underrepresented perspectives like that.
