You don’t know an individuals personal beliefs, it’s also none of your business. If they apply a material analysis that benefits the revolution, they are Materialist and they are Marxist. Their individual contradictions are up to them to resolve, we all have them, even us atheists.
You’ve picked one trait of an individuals character to discredit them. You are clearly the Idealist here.

Looks like that weirdo got banned.
I’m an atheist but I still try to be respectful of others religious beliefs these days. Acting like a reddit atheist isn’t going to win over anyone.
Very good answer.
