Inspired by some of the discussion in this thread. I don't think it's appropriate place for that discussion there, but hey why not have a separate thread for it

If I think religion is not good in general, am I Reddit and cringe and basically Richard Dawkins?

Nah, because this is a perfect description of me during my edgy atheist phase. Going from that last type of reddit atheist, with the islamophobia included, to converting to Islam after a lot of looking into it trying to "debate-bro".

So you weren't on reddit while an atheist but were acting similarly to what I'm describing and that's the reason for why people don't mean that when they talk about reddit atheism? Sorry I am tired and want to understand properly.

Sorry, I was on reddit at the time and your description is perfect for that type of person. The "nah" is a colloquialism for "I can't believe this", expressing shock at the accuracy.

Right that reading makes more sense in context 😄
