As #2 said this is becoming increasingly common in Europe (especially the UK) but a lot of that is just a product of exported American culture war crap. Decent number of examples in Australia and New Zealand too, and in parts of Africa being an ex-Christian can put your life in danger. I think it’s because for religious people, the act of not believing in their God seems like a threat to their worldview.
I don’t think the whole government is a part of it. It’s a small group of government that’s affiliated internationally most likely. Take for example: the heritage foundation. Not a legal entity related to government operations. Yet nearly 50% of their proposed changes to government for 2025 have been implemented already 🤔
That too. I could see it being Iran/russia (I think both would be together not each individually), or china most plausibly. Israel could make sense too. Curveball could be maybe India. But my personal belief is that it’s the walloons. I have no reasoning for this, just have an incredibly deep seated, probably racist hatred for the walloons.
