This fake cover was not intended to reinforce the stereotype you describe, and it doesnt in my opinion.
It persiflages a segment of the atheoskeptic movement which (according to its critics) cultivates an attitude of smg superiority, harmful ideas about relationships (such as the pick up artist approach to courting women), is unduly critical of socially progressive ideas such as feminism, and tends to brush concerns about social justice issues aside by using an inadequate approach to problems which fetishizes disinterested "logic", treating real life problems as philosophical games where values should be upheld and the priority should be with human concerns. A closely related facet of the worldview which is criticised by the creators of the fake cover is a allegedly naive approach to politics which embraces varieties of randian libertarianism.
