      Honestly, I was an atheist for a while before I went back to Catholicism and my biggest gripe with my attitude back then, and what I hear now is that very little has changed in refocusing the struggle of “religious” oppression (from primarily Atheist ideologues) to the systems of capital that allow for religion to be used as an expression of oppression. You destroy Capitalist White Supremacist Patriarchy and purge the right-wing ideologues and you’d have a defanged religious system.

      Conservative/Fascist ideology use religion as one of its many cloaks, but as we’ve seen with the neofascists and pagan fascist that float all over the internet, Christianity is not their primary interest. Resurrecting violent white supremacist as a modus operandis in totality is what they are most interested in. They often use Christianity as a way to ignore materially important and sounder ideological arguments.
