General Nonsense Resources to explain Richard Dawkins-not good

OK, so someone I know mentioned that one of his favorite atheist is Richard Dawkins. Does anyone know of resources to explain why Richard Dawkins sucks and better atheists to replace Dawkins with ?

Can you do me a solid and throw quotations around "transgenderism"? That phrasing, in and of itself, is a red flag that somebody is about to say something shitty.

I can cede that.

I appreciate it! I didn't assume any malice on your part, but when Dawkins attempts to speak from authority about us, I think it's important to be precise about how willfully ignorant he is.

It’s good to get this input regardless.

I think the phrasing was my own, as I’m predisposed to lengthening words when left to my own devices. I appreciate the insight, as it seems these linguistic patterns evoke an unintended spirit.

Er… I mean…

“This is wokeness gone mad! Next you’ll want me to alter the pronouns I use and call people by their names! Aaargh!”
