- this is the crux (no pun intended) of Christianity reaching its fascist form and why religion causes problems. it's true that in theory, you can combat hateful religion without ever talking about religion or telling people they can't believe it. but if you want to do that, you have to realize that religion boils down to the assertion that whatever ladder of cultural signifiers people stack up into an ontological model of how the world works is the truth. monotheistic religions archetypically assert that their group of people is behaving the correct way to be chosen by God; what this means in practice is that they have the correct culture to keep persisting as a civilization and telling everyone else what is moral while somebody else has evil, incorrect culture. progressive anthropologists and various people often unknowingly duplicate this same assertion that culture is "somebody's truth" in trying to define what tolerance is and how it is that people tolerate identities, but this is a nasty fallacy that nobody should be using. people in each town believe that culture is the truth because we can never experience reality except through culture, but whenever they do this they always believe the culture of one town is the truth for the whole world, not just for that town as sociology wants them to. this leads to the bigoted behavior of acting like one town's culture is the truth but another town's culture is lies. it's easier to get everyone to tolerate each other by simply asserting that culture is never the truth and Lived Experiences are not the truth, while creating a working model of how the universe works including a meta-Marxist analysis of how each society or subpopulation internally functions of its own power and under its own values is a different matter. maybe our model of reality is never reality, but culture, being the shared ontology of a specific socially-linked population of people, is definitionally insular and definitionally ignorant.
