    Of all the major organized religions I really think Islam is the most deserving of criticism. But it seems like a lot of “atheists” from the US were raised among Christians from whom they are rebelling. As part of this, they align themselves strongly with left/progressive ideals. Those same ideals are to be inclusive and tolerant of different people and cultures, which includes Islam. So opposing Islam goes against this, and likely aligns with the prejudices of those same Christian’s they hate so much.

      I mean, look what Christians do in the US. I think it really depends on the region you live in. Here in Europe, the most immediate religious threat is probably islam, while in the US it’s definitely christians. And don’t be fooled into thinking they don’t try they shit here as well. A woman in Poland might have a very different opinion than me or you about what’s more immediate threat to her.
