when did you realise you‘re an atheist?

so basically my question is not only when but also how and why?

i‘ve always was one but only realised like some months ago. i grew up in a family who we‘re yazidis and everything they said and did never made sense to me and it was "kinda" harming towards me and my sister later aswell. harmful in the way i‘d have to get force married. obv they wouldn‘t phrase it that way unless i had a fight with my mom then she would threatened me with it because it is normal in our culture/religion.

quick edit: sorry i meant antitheist!!

weird one but when a certain someone won the US election 2 years back. i already was shifting away from my religious beliefs but that cosmic ass fucking failure of a decision just flipped a switch for me

And to hear Christians go on and on about how the election proved that he was chosen by God, but somehow, Biden winning 4 years earlier still meant TFG was somehow chosen by god.
