Atheists believe in naturalism and materialism by default, by definition, if you reject any metaphysical aspect of existence then that is what you hold true.

      I wasn't even a Taylor Swift fan and I knew enough about her and her character to know that Matty Healy couldn't be half as bad as the internet tried to claim. Every single controversy surrounding him was taken totally out of context, such as lines in this song! After digging into his character and what he actually stands for, I'm both blown away by his art and everything he stands for, and devastated that someone who genuinely cares so much about the state of the world is being demonized so unfairly. He doesn't deserve it.

    So crazy seeing this after all the recent controversy about him. It’s like some serious black mirror stuff. “Hardening positions based on miscommunication” is exactly what is happening to thousands who are seeing out of context videos, on the wrong side of algorithms, not being exposed to proper research….absolutely insane. He is so smart and has done so much to fight for what he feels is right throughout the years. All for people who hadn’t heard of him til this year have their opinions based on a click bait headline or fear inducing comments and misplaced labels. He is an absolutely brilliant rock/pop star in every sense of the word. Will take years for some people to fully appreciate how great this man is in his prime. There will never be another matty healy!

    This song really hit home for me in March 2020, as Covid shutdown the world: “…Modernity has failed us… and I’d love it if we made it.” I recall listening to it multiple times early on in the pandemic, and it all made sense. But, weirdly, it became even MORE relevant as time went by. And Healy himself said it during their recent tour - he never imagined they’d still be singing this song in 2022. But it’s just as pertinent and keenly observed now as it was then - perhaps even more so. (Also, it’s just a tremendous song!)

      @tree beard sorry I’m so late lol, but I agree with you completely. I believe that religion was just a coping mechanism invented by people who were afraid. You know, afraid of death, create a god and a devil with heaven and hell, etc. But the concept of religion as a whole doesn’t make sense to me in all honesty. It’s not really logical, plus why are there so many different versions, you know? Don’t get me wrong I do believe in something but I don’t believe in a religion like Christianity or Islam. But I do appreciate the culture of religion and how people do use it to help them through their lives, like you said. However on the other hand religion is so malicious and creates so much evil. People use it to justify their corrupt and horrific behaviour and actions and if I’m not mistaken, religion is one of the major causes behind many wars. Religion is outdated. People are basing their lives on something that was made up thousands of years ago all because they’re desperate for salvation. We are living in a modern world. Religion can not be the leading factor of our world anymore. Though that’s not to say it shouldn’t exist.

    This song is truly about life today. Such a great truth teller. Love Matty's voice, his energy, his honesty & courage. Too bad people judge instead of finding the real facts and trying to understand He is an amazing person, songwriter, a true artist. Love the brotherhood of the band. My favorite band /artist by far.

      Kung-Fu Kenny Family he’s part of the band The 1975, they’ve actually been around for a while and are very well known in the alternative scene. you should take a listen to their other songs!

    i wish more people would just say the lyrics instead of sing them like he did. these videos are about the lyrics not the melody yknow.

      I don't think it makes a difference either way, it accomplishes the same objective, as long as they explain it when they should explain it, what's the problem with singing?
      In some of Genius' other videos, it actually sounds nice because it makes me remember the song, but that's just me.
