YOU WILL USE THE OPIUM OF THE PEOPLE
YOU WILL CALL ELO~N THE MEME MAESTRO
YOU WILL DAYDREAM ABOUT WHETHER YOU WILL GET A WINDOW SEAT ON THE MAGIC METAL DICK TO MARTIAN PARADISE
“And so” said he, the divorced man
"I have, at last, a master plan.
To purchase things to woo a woman
Buy her spices, silks, and linens
Perhaps a horse for her to ride
Will keep her loyal by my side."
To the market he did hurry
Moving quick and slightly worried
He found the clothier had closed
The flower shop had not a rose
He asked about and found out, too
The horses had been sold for glue
He pulled his scalp as he despaired
Unplugging all his plugged-in hair
"I cannot buy the things I need,
To get a girl to marry me!"
He stopped a moment to reflect
On what thing he would try next
He called up all the fortune tellers
Sayers-sooth and potion sellers
Wizards, mystics, learn’ed men
By bribe or threat he beckoned them
He told them all (straight up of course)
“You must make me un-divorced!”
He drank the brews, said incantations
Real stuff - no imitations!
He fasted til he was delirious
And said “At last!” (and he was serious)
Proclaiming that he’d had a vision
“It’s not me, they need religion!”
Amazing.
Religion is not it
To cover up your bullshit
Now please do not make a fit
Time to get in the god damn pit
I’d like to know what these fascists call “secular religion”? Do they mean some nebulous thing like “woke”? Or various leftist ideology (chuds tend to mean this)?
4ch!n greentext seems to imply that “secular religion” means having political or philosophal ideology that cares about other people and wants to improve society somewhat.
Fever dream power fantasies of robot gods of the future? That’s just science and applied Bayesianism
It’s one of those things left intentionally vague so that the audiences can fill in the blank. It echoes MAGA not saying when America was last great or what made it great then. So one person fills in brand identity, another fills in wokeness, another fills in celebrity worship, another fills in big government, etc. The point isn’t coherency, it’s about getting people with wildly different views to think the solution is to turn the clock back.
It is implying that people don’t actually become atheist, but rather that humans fundamentally need religion and that the need cannot be otherwise fulfilled.
It’s a common argument from applied “scientists” in culturally religious nations.
In this perspective, “wokeness” is a pathology that arises from being lost and misdirected due to a lack of religiosity, as religiosity is considered by them as a primal human need.
Often, this is a self-directed criticism by the culturally religious: They see a gaping wound where religion in society and history has taken from them, but they see this wound as a void which must be filled with more of the same. And they are unhappy that they have been unable to fill it. They don’t understand that it doesn’t need filled, but healed. They assume that this void exists in all people and that atheists and agnostics are deficient human beings as a result.
I’m going to be honest, the existence of potterheads/disney adults and a not insignificant amount of leftists makes me think it’s true.
disney folk definitely make me second guess everything I think I know about the world lol
They don’t understand that it doesn’t need filled, but healed.
Beautifully put.
I think when reactionary
gate style Reddit New Atheists wander back into religion, be it tradcath shit or the like, it’s from an unhealed sort of “cultural Christianity” that they never fully examined and just assumed should be there with or without the deity.Fuck Dawkins btw.

This doesn’t even scan. “Childless hedononism sans all care” keeps the meter much better. At least read your shitty poetry out loud for fuck’s sake.
Secular religion? Like nationalism?
The would-be god king of le simulation (you know, the known universe) sees everything but his own delusions of grandeur as some kind of religion.
looked up his religious beliefs and it seems he’s an atheist/agnostic who subscribes to christianity solely for the vibes and his western world fetish
Elon Musk announced that he’s a “big believer in the principles of Christianity” and “a cultural Christian”. Musk’s reasons are moral and political – he believes Christianity can boost both happiness and birthrates.

Maybe he seek to live like Jesus Christ.
Give all his shit to the poor and acquire some lice.
Eat only rice.
Treat sex workers nice.
You know Elon’s the type to get blacklisted from brothels because of that one time he tried to brand someone with the
SpaceXTesla logo
Elon is literally a samurai warrior poet and you loony leftoids are so jealous, what have YOU done with your life?
I too dabble in the occasional Dynasty Warriors game, much like our lord and savior Elong
is it better to be dope or be fire?
Dont you typically light dope on fire and inhale it?
sound like something I would write in 1st grade
This obsession with other people breeding he has is legitmiately disgusting And hes got like 10 kids but still tries to fill his emptiness looking for others approval on a Nazi site. Wind ya neck in mate
Capitalists have begun realising that if they want to make conditions considerably worse for people then they need ways to offset that.
Musk is too stupid to be subtle about it.
ew
putting the “emetic” in “memetic”
Maybe religion’s not so bad
