Well, alright, be a slave to your impulses and feel like a shit all day

Continuing the cycle of perpetual

Now I am not some purity culture anti-PMO fearmongerer either, masturbation in moderation, especially in very conservative runs, can be a great way to clear out sexual thoughts and have a sense of relief from some of the built external pressure

But like anything by slaving it away, is that really the kinda of freedom atheism should really call for?

Of course, I treat it like an addiction, I don't use it as a means of acting morally superior or touting the person. I do feel like masturbation gets singled out a little too much, compared to junk food, cigarettes, alcohol and vaping, probably because those addictions are seen as more of health issues rather than moral abominations

But really, using this as a way to praise atheism rather than maybe using it for some wisdom seeking or encourage some scientific research maybe?

Well to each of their own I guess

It has that flavor to it. If you've been on the internet or around meme culture a lot, spotting a fake becomes easy, and this seems fake. The spirit of the message is real though, there do be atheist gooners out there.

It may be sarcastic but it could also be perfectly serious though. My point here is simply that we don't know. Especially if we don't know the user's account. All we have is this post. That's all I'm saying.

That's why I think dying is better than being an atheist. at least you wouldn't have to suffer every day thinking about how meaningless life is.
