So I need to ask. Is this what this community is about? I am atheist, and I empathize with your frustrations on the theocracy.

But these low effort memes and hate posting. I mean come on man. Surley we can do better then this.

What do you mean "low effort"?

I’ve blocked the community now because of this guys memes. They’re annoying and just dunking on religion because this dude thinks he’s better. It’s pathetic

Wait, are you implying that the entire world population is religious? There are 8 billion, not 7 billion people now.

In 2018, 84% of people were religious. I have no idea how they reconcile atheism in China either since like 75% of their population has none.

who are the 25% of China who are supposedly religious? muslims? Uyghurs? the oppressed?

Tbh that's capitalism which sorta extended from religion but is no longer dependent on it, interestingly.
