@matrix being anti abortion isnt really libertarian lol but sure
@matrix it's full of people who oppose authority. Left or right doesnt really matter here in my opinion. Esp for a european to be what americans understand under "libertarian". German gov is tied to the church. I you dont like church tax you have to leave it officially. All believers are taxed or thrown out.

@igelsQTs
Not necessarily. Atheism is just the lack of belief in the supernatural. The opposition to authority part is there because in most places throughout history it was the church imposing itself. That's why a lot of atheists are communists especially in the US, in Europe it's much less. Because the right wing government and population they hate is mostly Christian.
Libertarians don't oppose authority itself, they oppose authority imposed by someone else, but don't have issue with willingly submitting yourself. Religion and libertarianism don't inherently contradict.
Roe V Wade cancelation is a win for libertarians because it was mandate from the outside imposed onto the states.

@matrix @igelsQTs
Accurate description of atheism. You really can't make any other supposition about them other then a disbelief in gods, because as a whole (as a community if you will) they really aren't consistent about anything else. Recent years have made it pretty clear to me that they're not even consistent about opposing religious thinking. They just mostly oppose the religious thinking that they got brought up with.
You even see some flinch and stumble when you point out that they're defending Islam, because on one hand they should hate it for being an Abrahamic religion, but at the same time the woke religion tells them they must defend the muslims. Atheists are as flawed and prone to irrational thinking as anyone else.

As for the libertarian/authoritarian thing, they'll rightly attack the authoritarian imposition of Christianity, but then they fail no notice their own increasing authoritarian imposition on Christians. So any intersection with Libertarians is purely coincidental.

But that would leave her pregnant! And a fetus in her womb is literally violating her! (literal argument I've heard certain atheists repeatedly make).

@alyx @matrix I would sue her if she wouldn't get pregnant

Clearly her not carrying your child is violating your rights to procreate!

Well, I don't think she's made in EU, so don't know if you get that mandatory 2 year warranty on her.

@alyx @matrix the brussel effect gets to everyone someway
