It’s not really a meme.

I mean it’s probably a meme in the most literal sense, just it’s not funny. It’s a basic motivational quote.
Nearly cut myself on that title.
Cool edgy atheist meme, how’s the 8th grade going?
Signed, 9th grader

Not a meme, just an opinion over a picture.
Memes are just political propaganda if you boil them down to their essence.

Let’s put the blame where it belongs. Asshole narcissists who want to control everyone by any means, whether it be force, deception, or a twisted interpretation of religion.
Well sure, but you have to also remember that there is an entire country that bases its existence on the fact that their god gave them the right to that land, even if it means that nobody else can live there.
I can agree with that, but a certain set of religions with thousands of years of history behind them certainly give a large number of these people a huge thing to hide behind and call it “religious persecution” when you point out their bigotry.
In other words, they certainly don’t help the situation.
Do you genuinely think this is a good meme?
No, but I do think the anger over it is silly. If you don’t like it either don’t upvote it or downvote and move on. I haven’t upvoted it, to be clear.
The only person expressing any anger is you getting upset that other people don’t like a meme that you also don’t like. Edgey atheism is a phase most young people who leave religion go through and grow out of.
I’m not really sure how you’re reading that as me being angry, but okay. You do you.
Not parent poster, but I downloaded it and sent it to my wife, lol. We both thought it was depressingly true; funny in a dark comedy way.
So, I enjoyed it. Not sure if that makes it a “good meme” or not, particularly as the image doesn’t really add anything. Maybe the GOP or Fox News logo would be better? idk
Very philosophical

Whether you agree with the sentiment or not, this kind of meme just isn’t original enough to be funny imo. Fedora tipping edgelords bash religion all over the internet like it’s their jobs.
Nothing to see here. It’s just a way for sad people to feel superior.
If it was removed then why are you reposting it?
Idk man. I rather see the opposite in my area. Where my ex was atheist and had severe NPD and constantly gaslighted me into believing her perspective. (Explaining thay headache is caused by wheather and shit meanwhile I tried to explain that this is not scientific and she needs to have some small or even big issues underlining after she complains a year long straight. Seems that she outed herself that she didnt drink water and only sleep 4 hours.)
But I guess I am not really that religious myself except I ride myself into heavy issues (like the breakup) which made me get a new and better girlfriend who actually understands how life works.
My problem with a lot of atheist arguments, is that it’s just theology oversimplified and out of context, when literally ANYTHING sounds stupid out of context and oversimplified.
Like what arguments? I thought most atheist arguments essentially boil down to the burden of proof and falsifiability, or they take an anthropological approach to the origins of religion. Essentially, they don’t depend on theological arguments at all.
Like, “religion cannot provide any falsifiable evidence of its existence, hence it should not be believed” doesn’t involve theology at all, and “religion was invented by a priest class to control the population and maintain power” similarly doesn’t depend on theology. Neither are related to a specific religion, even.
To clarify, I’m not trying to start a theological argument here. I just literally don’t understand your perspective, but clearly I’m missing something based on both you posting it and others upvoting you. Am I just out of the loop about what people on the Internet argue about? (Granted, that’s quite possible; I haven’t been subscribed to /r/atheism in well over a decade.)
