We now have several generations of red diaper doper babies and a cultural reversal in which they have have become the new establishment yet still pitch themselves as being "revolutionary" and "outsiders".
You'll hear more derision in the media if you claim to be a Christian than a Communist.
The Red Diaper Doper Babies were brought up to fear communism in the 1950s. It was the boogie man monster living under their beds. Little that they realized that they would grow up to be the monsters they feared. I guess that is why they like the word “ironic.” But you are right, Christianity is now the monster under their beds. If they can now become what they fear the most, history would repeat for the better.
