antitheism spitball
Sep. 16th, 2026 10:08 amwhen people say that antitheism is only correct solution , that even self-made religion is awful , because religions can become tools of control ... just have to wonder what those people think about psychiatry and medicine . these fields have lots to criticise and answer for , and that include forms of mass control , torture , and death . body and brain only have one " correct " mode , and everything else must be bent and broken to fit or erased entirely - society is not what need change , people is .
kossai almost always see such people treat psychiatry and medicine as true defaults of world , but would dare say there is no less harm , both potential and already-acted , in these fields than in religions . but never see any of these people then say that all of psychiatry and medicine should also cease to exist and fall out of records , only ever say this about religions . funny , huh ? almost like this is just excuse to never think about cultures other than one's own ( usually ) white western voidspace .
full truth of matter is that people who want to control will use anything as tool of control - divine , scientific , form is not important , would not solve anything to just whittle away parts of world . people can control each other with emotions , so people should not have emotions . with words , so people should not have language . with actions , so people should not have bodies ! ridiculous . can not help but feel sorry for these people in some sense , but also angry that seem to think answer to mass violence of persecutors is mass violence of persecuted .
