Get real. Every single group that lives outside the heteronormative, christian nationalist banner has fit-throwers. Saying that there aren’t those atheists but certainly are those vegans is as dumb as any other half-baked argument out there.
Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

Can you name any atheist protests?

Every action by the Satanic Temple?
Though they are kind of amusing trolls about it.

I wouldn’t call them highlighting the hypocrisy of Christians the same as protesting out in the streets. The satanic temple is reactionary.

It’s a form of targeted religious fairness testing for sure, but I wouldn’t call TST a protest org. Nobody really stands outside and holds a banner as much as just filing lawsuits.

Opposition to religious monuments on public grounds. They are low key and the only violence, vandalism, or public disturbances come from religious folks.

You make it sounds like the heteronormative, christian nationalist s don’t throw fits all the time.

Why has heteronormative become an insult?
Behole@lemmy.ml 5 months ago
How do I make it sound like that. All they do is cry and moan! They are the absolute worst of the fit-throwers. But way to dig deep into my comment for a complete nothing burger.

That’s ALL they do. I say this as an atheist that avoids atheism on the internet like it’s a disease.

if you think internet atheists can’t be just as obnoxious as internet vegans you clearly haven’t been around enough of them.
JovialSodium@lemmy.sdf.org 5 months ago
Speaking as an aethist, can confirm.

The common denominator is the internet part though. The last obnoxious atheist I saw was 14, and I have yet to see an obnoxious vegan IRL

To be pendantic, the vocal atheists are more specifically antitheists as in they are opposed to theism, not just someone who doesn’t believe.

Give me one example.

Don’t remember when /r/atheism was a default on the other site?
riplin@lemm.ee 5 months ago
That’s your example? A sub being the default on Reddit? That’s equal to protests in the streets by vegans to you?
