Remember that time he excused a woman getting sexually assaulted in an elevator by an Atheist, and he just shrugged it off as “A Muslim would have done worse” and claimed she was overreacting… haha… Dawkins is a piece of shit.
He has also argued for Non-Local Consciousness and claims to be a “Cultural Christian”, so I wonder if he’s even an Atheist anymore…
True, but the thing, as I don’t base my entire fucking identity around it to the point where I’m openly bragging about it, despite trying to be the figurehead of New Atheism (New Atheism and Atheism are different things)
The whole New Atheist movement and cries of cultural xtianity came about due to the rise of militant Islam. They were appealing to a particular audience.
It was always “religion is bad but Islam is especially bad” from Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris.
Uh oh, what did he do?
He claimed several times that transpeople were just the gender version of “Black Face”, so much so they rescinded one of his humanism awards

If you were raised in “the West” then you are most likely passively “culturally Christian” too.

We have to remember that “New Atheism” was/is largely a response to militant Islam and also demographic shift in western nations.
Relevance?

Disagreed slightly with someone
What a tragedy. Can we dig him up and cancel him?
Edit: Who else was thinking he was dead? Lord hep me!
