You don't really need to learn about beliefs, to not believe in them.
100% agree. And if the atheism community was just about sharing in their lack of belief, that would be fine.
However, atheist communities on the whole seem to be more focused on critiquing or mocking religion (probably because it's hard to make content around a lack of something): fundamentally you should have some knowledge of the religions you're criticising to not just seem uninformed.
As an atheist myself, such content just seems very cringey.
Its ex Christians who are now atheists expressing their trauma.
What's the fun in that? There is something about being able to meet them on their ground and know more about their stuff than they do. You don't have to really do anything in life but fun is fun.
