I find it funny whenever those who promote religion ever accuse others of brainwashing
I don’t. Because most of the time they really don’t understand the hypocrisy of it. And because the neverending crisises are pushing people towards religion more and more, feeding these ghouls
People aren’t getting pushed towards religion more. It’s on a global decline overall. But fair point, it is ridiculous that they can legitimately say that. I just make every effort to avoid being around religious people in real life so I mainly see it through the internet now

I’ll take your word for it, because where I’m at it honestly looks the opposite
What country do you live in if you don’t mind me asking?
Russian federation. I would imagine it varies from region to region, and within specific groups
Yeah, I don’t know about in Russia. Overall, I know the international statistics show decreasing religiousness and even in my personal life in the US, less people are religious
Well here’s hoping
A thought experiment came to mind:
Let’s imagine that ‘‘socialist indoctrination’’ exists, and it teaches people about: sharing, having empathy, community, working together, supporting those in need, and also vindicating the struggles of minorities, be them ethnic or of gender, taking back the economic power from a few and giving it to the many, making housing, healthcare and education a right, because everybody needs those, ending racism, because under a socialist society ethnic differences and cultural values are respected and given a voice, having diversity, and other wholesome stuff.
Now, let’s say this is all that our propaganda talks about, ok, now what does capitalist or liberal propaganda speak about? The individual, wealth as measure of power and influence, ‘‘checks and balances’’, ‘‘free market’’, how society is a collection of individuals each seeking their benefit at expense of others, ‘‘human nature’’, and all that crap…Now, we’ve seen the results of a society modeled this way.
Now, tell me with a straight face which sounds better? I’d rather be ‘‘indoctrinated’’ into thinking everything is about community and living happy and fulfilling lives, instead of this dystopic individualistic Darwinism we call ‘‘society’’ in our liberal democracies. Like if both were lies, I’d still be a communist, because at face value, that creates a better world, and isn’t that what we all want? A better world? Well, it’s possible, kids, and Communism is the answer.

Congratulations, you’ve just been ‘‘socialist indoctrinated’’.
Nicely put.
