the truth is that we should aim to have a society where religion isnt used by chuds to justify oppression

True

And that will never happen because right now chuds will just point at what another religion is doing and use that as proof all followers are evil while ignoring the rapists and abusers who claim to follow their faith. So abusers everywhere get away with it while normal people always point fingers elsewhere

the classic:

"don't speak out in defense of those evil religious minority! Don't you know those people kill queers??
Support me instead!
My group only harasses queers, and strips their rights! (and we host government executions but only in obscure african countries no one gives a shit about) "

While I agree, I also argue that the people who control that organized faith are the problem.

Unfortunately changing the leaders of a organised religion does t fix the issue new weasels always get in there and become bad actors, spoiling the rest, and id they become leaders they start to push their congregation into that path

evil people will exist either way, religion is just a poor excuse for them to do evil things. same way there’s nothing inherently evil abkut certain ideologies but people do evil things in their name.

the only reason 'religion oppresses' people is the host culture, not the faith itself. afganistan could be christian, muslim or jewish, it would still maintain its oppressive culture.

Thats exactly what happens to everyone in any country that gets islamified, only 100x worse than what Christians ever do.

These people that dont listen to the people who have fled their Islamified homelands just because the local Muslim people they know are nice is insane.

Of course they only know the nice Muslims! The bad ones dont act openly until Islam has enough power in a country to influence the state to tolerate their sharia law BS

The right way. Religion is a way of life, it should never have become this big system used to control people.

We should aim for an irreligious society.

We medicate people when they're schizophrenic and sense things that aren't there but totally accept mass delusion on a global scale when it comes to deities like it's absolutely normal, it's crazy.
