I think a lot of people were tempted to atheism in their youth because it was the edgy cool thing to do. I can remember back in the early days of 4 Chan that was actually the OG definition of “alt-right.” It was atheist right wing people who didn’t want to be associated with the “cringe” evangelical right. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people are turning back to religion (Christianity) because they think it’s the new cool edgy thing to do. “Nah bro fuck those leftist atheists with their science, we’re gonna be white Christian nationalists because that’s the cool new edgy thing to b. Have you heard of this guy Nick Fuentes?!?” I’ll stick to my atheism.
