Why are all atheists liberals?

[Cephus]

You've never heard of Atheism+? Seriously?

I've heard of the name, because someone on one of these boards asked if it is dead. But this is the first time I've heard a glimmer of what it might be about.

Not my fault you don't do research. Atheism+ and it's associated groups hold that you can't be an atheist unless you're also a social justice warrior and a radical feminist. It and it's supporters have gotten plenty of mainstream media attention. It is the group that came up with the atheist blockbot on Twitter. While I have no idea if that particular group is still all that active, the ideas that it represented are still widely associated with Internet atheism.

I have. Never heard them say that if you're not a "Social Justice Warrior", you're not an atheist. They also don't meet the criteria for being liberals.

Then you haven't listened very clearly, they have, or had, a very "you're either with us or you're shit" philosophy, perhaps best characterized by historian Richard Carrier when he said: "There is a new atheism brewing, and it’s the rift we need, to cut free the dead weight so we can kick the C.H.U.D.’s back into the sewers and finally disown them, once and for all."

And whether you consider them liberals or not, they most certainly consider themselves liberals. I consider them assholes.
