It seems like liberals blaming 'religion' is what happens when they are either forced to confront material reality or throw up their hands and pretend things are too complicated to understand.
It's a way to deal with cognitive dissonance. If they consult the material reality behind these conflicts they'd have to face up against the fact their countries are supporting a supremacist ethnostate that is committing genocide. They'd rather pretend that both sides are equally blinded by religion than see the imbalance.
Aside from this, my acceptance that lower‐class Christians can be just as revolutionary as proletarian atheists is the most important reason why I quit being a stereotypical atheist snob. No doubt the Church tried repeatedly to teach peasants that their lot in life was divinely ordained, but a great deal of Christian peasants revolted against their masters anyway.
More recently, there is liberation theology, normally understood as a Catholic phenomenon, but by a loose definition it can include other Abrahamists. I don’t believe that these are forced attempts at reconciliation; I think that these people are being perfectly sincere when they say that belief in God feels natural to them but submitting to the status quo does not.
Theism may not make sense to me, but I don’t see the point in arguing about it with others either; deconverting them to atheism wouldn’t make a big difference. Personally I’d rather be in the company of Christian socialists than atheist anticommunists (and there are plenty of the latter around).
Or they'd get called antisemitic by all their lib friends and are afraid of that
A religious war is when you respond to another country flattening your embassy.

I hope this guy gets hit by a car and is injured bad enough that he starts inserting the real life event into his fantasy series, absolutely ruining the narrative by having the lives of his fictional characters revolving around a car accident involving real world author Steven King.
i hope he's only able to depict himself as a coked up narcissist who gets split into three
Probably my least favorite part of the whole series.
All work and no play makes Steven something something.

You pay for a blue check on Twitter after saying you wouldn't.
Although E ~ L ~ O ~ N may have given it to him for free during the desperate early times of Twitter Blue, idk.
twitter re-added pre-elon verification recently, restoring verified to a lot of accounts that lost it when it became a paid thing
