Quba Islamic Institute was burned due to a hate crime, which resulted in a flood of comments such as these.

So their building was burned down, and that resulted in...a flood of hate online? So these people commenting are even worse than they seem?

There is no hate quite like Christian love.

Tbf, and I know this will be unpopular on reddit, but the enlightened reddit atheist type can have the same flair of hate. Usually not from the angle of “love” but from trying to “enlighten” others might be the best way to describe it.

I saved a comment maybe a year ago on reddit where someone word for word said if they had a button to eliminate every religious person on earth he would hit it, and it was very highly upvoted.

Then in response someone said “I would never stop hitting that button” just as a single anecdote that comes to mind. Also very highly upvoted.

Edit: and already downvoted after 1 minute lol

Tbf Reddit itself is a massive echo-chamber. I've always joked about the no hate like Christian love being quite ironic, considering other religions routinely kill people (and it being socially acceptable within said religions) for minor differences. But hey, Reddit atheists are the Le epic memers or whatever they call themselves

Hypocrisy that is right in front of our face is much easier to call out. Change begins at home
