Re: North Carolina man charged in shooting death of 3 Muslim students
An edict by the state that all will be atheist is the same as an edict that all will be Muslim, Protestant, or Catholic. When a state conflates "theist" with "not a communist", and punishes you accordingly, they are absolutely doing so for atheism.
Ah. The good ole No True Socialism Fallacy. Marx's followers were the ones who performed the vast majority of the atheist purges.
Executing people in the name of communism is absolutely not the same as executing in the name of atheism.

Marx does not speak for nor represent all communists.
