P Z Myers was an ignorant buffoon when he was a new atheist, and he's still an ignorant buffoon now he's not. Just saying.
Mind you, can't say I've been sorry to see the destruction of online new atheism. It was always ridiculously simplistic & manifestly toxic.

PZ’s cesspit sure was toxic—bc he encouraged extreme tribalism. I’d love to know, tho, where anyth abt eg Dawkins/Harris/Hitchens was toxic.

I wouldn't class those under the label *online* new atheism - though I think they certainly have tribal moments.

I’m not saying that’s impossible, it’s just that I wonder whether your hunch wld hold up under critical scrutiny. (I mildly doubt it.) :)
