And guess what - judgmental, intolerant shitholes *do not feel like that from the inside*. They feel good and virtuous. If you think 'no, this isn't a descent into a judgmental ignorant shithole because it's good and virtuous' then this only INCREASES HOW FREAKED OUT I FEEL

I've been having the conversation that perhaps escaping/recovering from that cultish upbringing acts as an innoculation against that style of thought. I often have more in common with ex-mormons and ex-catholics who are still theists, than I do with people who were raised atheist
