  • Well we didn’t see that enthusiasm for Hillary so I have no idea what you’re on about.

    Also, and I wasn’t expecting I’d have to say this today, women aren’t horses. Additionally, horses are actually pretty egalitarian with their leadership; that’s why they’re such good allies for humans, they don’t mind being led by a person instead of a horse.

    Tl;Dr: every part of your comment is wrong.

    It’s gotten to the point where incel just means “a guy who believes men and women should be equal”.

    No, that’s not even remotely true, and it’s not what your previous comment was saying either.

    Incels are essentially misogynists with a sexual fixation. Like classical misogynists tend to be more occupied with women having jobs or holding positions of power, while incels tend to be more upset about women’s sexual habits, but both are preoccupied with hating on women they deem to be misbehaving.

    I think the part of your previous comment that gave the most ‘incel vibes’ was the bit about women begging for attention after ‘hitting the wall’ in their 20s. Maybe you intended it as a comment on women who regretted not taking relationships more seriously in their 30s, but it came off as a sort of fantasy where the women who transgressed your model of how ladies should act get their just desserts.






    1. Yes, Islam and Christianity both have a penchant for holy wars.

    2. There are many large organizations that don’t put so much effort into shielding abusers.

    3. Anyone who called out the evils of the Nazi regime was persecuted, including atheists who were often labeled ‘Russian supporters’ due to their lack of faith. ‘Godless’ communists were the first targets of Nazism.

    I think most modern anti-theists aren’t interested in forcibly converting anyone, they see the rise of atheism as inevitable. They want to remove religion from schools and public life, stop posting the ten commandments everywhere, stop putting ‘god’ on money, etc. at least that’s what I hear about.

    I don’t think anti-theists need to be advocates of forcing people to stop being religious, they can simply be opposed to theism. Like I’m opposed to the smoking of tobacco, but I’m not interested in prohibiting it, I just think it’s unhealthy and the world would be a better place if there was less of it. I think that’s how many anti-theists feel about religion. At least that’s the impression that I get from talking with them.
