    The term atheist has evolved beyond the roots of its components. It absolutely does not mean “indifferent to the idea of whether there is a god.” Linguistic prescriptivism is reactionary and cringe.

    In real life, the difference between atheist and antitheist is “I don’t believe there is a god” and “I believe it’s bad for you to believe there is a god” which, again, are both correct positions
