 religion is dangerous because it disconnects morality from reality

fools believe we need religion because without fear of G-d there will be no incentive for anybody to do good

what they fail to realize is only the powerless victims of religion actually believe in G-d.

belief in G-d ( right-wing ) is ultimately as misguided as belief in government ( left-wing ).

it is a pathetic belief based purely on fear and feeling tiny and powerless yet still needing to cling to hope that "we are all going to make it"

retards on Fediverse literally and unironically tell each other " we are all going to make it " and " Jesus loves you " and " It's all part of G-d's plan " and so on EVERY SINGLE DAY because of how small and weak they are.

as for leftists Government is their G-d, along with its various branches such as "education" and "health care" and so on.  

leftists believe Government is solution to everything and right-wingers believe G-d is the solution.

NEWSFLASH BITCHNES: neither G-d nor Government ever solved any problems and never will.  nobody is coming to save you. 

but the average person can't handle that truth.
