Totally misrepresented me. I didn't say that atheists promote it. Dawkins is a big critic of a lot of the modern social justice activism that he sees as going down the rabbit hole of quasi-religion. The so called 'woke folk' of social media aren't actually big fans of Dawkins anymore. Perhaps because he dissed their new 'religion'. Or it could just be his irredeemable 'original sin' of being an older white, heterosexual male with an opinion that they detest him. Maybe a combination of both.
I said that the idea promoted by some outspoken atheists, that if we remove legacy religion, suddenly the world is a type of post god utopia ruled by rational, reasoned thought and logic - disappointingly - doesn't appear to be eventuating. People find belief systems that manifest into quasi-religion to fill the void.
Totalitarian states replace religion with cult like veneration of dictators and their close associates. Khmer Rouge Cambodia, Stalin's Soviet Union, North Korea for example. And in so called 'woke culture,' the veneration and reverence of victim status, that is at the heart of a lot of modern social justice activism, is along this same lines.
Nothing wrong with the concepts of social justice per se. Any decent person would tell you that. It's when it delves into the realms of irrational veneration, creating it's own unquestionable dogma and in turn, instituting it's own secular blasphemy laws you are delving into insane quackery.
