Well, no, my position is that gods could be real but none of them are worth worshiping.
Then, additionally, if there’s some kind of omnipotent and omniscient Creator then it’s evil and I hate it.
/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

That premise is the premise of the christian, islamic, jewish, and all other self appointed omnipotent creating entities.
Well, yeah, those are the gods I hate. I used the term “almighty” as a shorthand for “god that created literally everything.” They created everything including non-physical concepts like good and evil. You’re basically just describing a Big Bang with a personality, which isn’t really in the category of gods I hate. That god just made cool stars and rocks and stuff, it didn’t really make everything. Rather, the rocks spontaneously came to life and started suffering without input.
I think you’re in trouble if you swallow or inhale any batteries.
Biology, genetics and environmental causes.
And… who made those?
I guess… physics, primordially?
And who made that!?
We’re owed nothing for existing.
We are, actually. We didn’t ask to exist. It was forced onto us by a cruel god that thought it would be neat to make humans.
If we think back to the dumpster baby, god created a child and threw them in a dumpster. For fun. It doesn’t get to wash its hands and say “I don’t owe them anything, it’s up to them to survive.” It’s still responsible for creation and it is derelict in its duty.
Who is responsible for birth defects? For natural disaster? For sickness? These things aren’t choices and we aren’t responsible for them, they happen because god created a cruel world for us to suffer and die in. God created the dumpster and threw us in.
I think you misunderstood - God is the one throwing the baby in a dumpster.
Imagine you intentionally become pregnant, give birth to a child, and then throw them in a dumpster. That’s the god you described.
Except multiply that by billions of lives.
I think more broadly you could say I’m anti-demiurge, I guess I don’t particularly hate the other gods but they’re just jumped up elementals/spirits. Like, whatever, some guy demands to be worshipped in exchange for boons or to bestow curses or whatever. I think he’s an asshole for lording his cool lightning powers over us, but I don’t think he needs to be destroyed for it per se.
Antitheist.
If there is some kind of almighty God that created and rules everything then it must be the most evil being to ever exist and we must destroy it. It created evil, it created suffering, it created loss, it created death, and for what? Fun?
There’s no karma, why would bots farm upvotes?
Socks? Check. Skirt? Check. Vape pen? Check.
It’s study time.
Impossible. A dog would immediately eat the ham. QED
Dried beans (lima, black-eyed peas, navy)
Why would dried beans be better than fresh or canned beans?
Didn’t they float plans to buy armored Teslas?
Forget about Russia or Saudi Arabia, he basically has the backing of the US government. The government won’t allow any of his businesses to fail and his business interests will only be helped by his doggy department.
As if Google isn’t already crammed with Israeli spies. In fact, that’s probably why an Israeli company just got a sweetheart buy out from Google! This is just a continuation of a pre-existing issue Google already had.
Ever play as a level 1 adventurer in a tabletop game?
Getting gored by a pig is just how the game goes sometimes.
Right, it doesn’t matter if automation is less productive if it’s cheaper. Sure, the robots keep causing damage, but they don’t ask for wages.
There are limits to growth, so eventually the individuals who are rewarded with immense power will find that they can’t keep accumulating more power without fucking up society.
