  • Idk why we’ve reached the point where anyone saying they’re anything but an atheist has to specify that they aren’t a bigot

    The main issue is that the cohort of people with megaphones broadcasting their spirituality is virtually entirely comprised of profiteers.

    Like all such parasites they follow the pattern of establishing out groups for you to despise, simply because it drives engagement better. Same reason all major social media now attempts to shape you into a being of hatred and impulse. It keeps you stressed and activated so you jump at the opportunity when they offer to let you spend money to blow off some of the steam.

    Bigotry as a phenomenon has many origins, but wherever it springs from it ultimately doubles as an inherently appealing strategy for those who wish wring dry their community.

    At any rate, as we all sit here dying around the same poisoned watering hole, we see these profiteers dressing just like us while actively dumping the poison in. Ashamed, we feel compelled to proclaim, “I am not them! They only wear my clothes!”

    Spirituality is an incredibly comfortable and practical “clothing” for many people. You’re absolutely correct in drawing attention to how bad it sucks that the people who embrace that comfort now feel pained to differentiate themselves from the abusers who pervert their fashion













  • Yeah solving it without following any method probably actually requires you to be a genius or something lol

    I love the established speedcubing strategies tho, it basically changes it from being a puzzle you’re trying to solve into being similar to a rogue-like video game where you get a new “map” each time. Totally different skillset but also super rewarding in its own way
