I don’t see anything wrong with any of it. Why is thinking or speaking of any of those things being framed as a negative?

Exactly, thinking and talking about these things is perfectly alright and at 20 they are all quite new to you, so it’s very reasonable to be excited about them.

How dare young people not appreciate the intricacies and nuance of the world? Harrumph! I say.

None of those things are negatives, this is just anti-intellectualism. Maybe OP has been corrected by douches in the past. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks OP is trying to normalize shaming critical thinking while finding like-minded individuals.

Or this is an attempt at even more critical thinking, i.e. “These are fine concepts, but if you don’t reckon with the context of what you’re talking about before throwing one of these out because it kinda fits you actually bring conversations down and keep people from exchanging more pertinent ideas and information.”

They probably could have communicated that better if that was their intent, but that’d probably kill any humor potential which was probably more of a priority here.

I think you’re being extremely generous to OP.

You must be fun at parties. Maybe it’s just self-deprecating humour?

I mean, I don’t talk propaganda at parties, do you?

Yeah I’ve noticed an uptick in atheists on lemmy recently, I don’t support religon at all because of dogma but I also will never support atheism either

What does any of that have to do with atheism?

He’s stereotyping atheists as the kind of people to act the way the character in the meme does.

The athiest Community particularly on reddit liked to frame things negatively and mock and attack people through generalisations

This image shares that and that’s what I noticed and decided to make my comment on that

I probably should have mentioned in my previous comment that I noticed the similarities

These topics mentioned in the image have no reason to be framed in a negative light because they are not inherently negative

Anyone can use them for any intention, good or bad

And some of them can be used in discussion about scientific topics

I’ve noticed that athiests claim they support science but they still mock and attack anyone using science to constructively criticise them or scientific claims they support

Science needs to have criticism, praise and discussion from all sides, not just one
