@mattsheffield Agreed. The ongoing joke amongst certain religions is that atheism is a religion, which I disagree with, but certain forms of atheism do feel cultlike, which I suspect leads to eager adherence to anything with even a veneer of "empowering the self"

Add to this the kind of "immature atheism" (I've been there) which is really just "I'm angry at religion and my former deity and need to prove it" and you have a potent combo.

@mattsheffield Seems like a foreseeable outcome for ego-driven atheism.

@eniko I’d like to especially call out the people who said putting that shit in systemd was nbd and who mocked people who called it obeying in advance.
