When I called someone out for being “delusional” and “a problem”, I was perma-banned from the r/atheism. Have I missed something? Are atheists at literal war with theists? Is it the common belief that theists are willing members of “murderous organizations”? What propaganda is being passed around atheist circles that I’ve been missing out on?

More directly, I guess, is today’s Atheism strictly about anti-Christianity? Cause that’s not where I’m coming from nor interested in going.

For added context of the conversation I was attempting to have - “everybody or nobody”; if a pride flag alone fails to represent everyone (which it inherently does), wouldn’t the proposed argument prevent hanging the flag? I thought it was a reasonable reply to the idea and was shocked by “murderous organizations” coming into play.

(I mean, people have been hanging American flags and singing the National Anthem too.)

    The argument, which was not posed by me, was that either all groups be represented or none be represented. My “devil’s argument” was then would that mean the exclusion of the pride flag (because this had something to do with a comment that’s since been deleted).

    That’s the discussion.
