A person who lives on an ideological plantation, is not a real freethinker and in fact has zero critical thinking skills, but believe they do, because the side of the aisle they're chained to constantly bombards their feeble minds with "We are thuh freethinking, logical reasonal, critical drinkural side! *Huff* we just arrive at all these thoughts through logical reasonal! Duh! Obviously you're the smort boi!" rhetoric. Overlaps heavily with the logical reasonal & the chronline. Plural: freethinkrz
"Jon is such a freethinkr he believes everything he sees on a YT channel once he hears 'Do your own research' and because it's called VERITAS and he saw in the comments that means TRUTH without regard for the fact that the algorithm only prioritizes the sort of content he peruses without regard to how many dubious facts it intravenously feeds him."
"White male freethinkrz are the most offended people of all time. Right alongside white lib females. Did you see them flip over Assassin's Creed Shadows? Bruh."

Get the Freethinkers of the South mug.Someone who comes to their own conclusions about the nature of existence and the world, based not on the notions of others nor by adhering strictly to any particular dogma, but rather through their own senses and thought processes.
Also a term hijacked by the Militant New atheist Media Machine to be essentially synonymous with "atheist", with the not-so-subtle implication that self-generated thought and personal common sense MUST lead EVERYONE to conclude that there is no god, and that no one who comes to believe in a god of any sort, religious-based or abstract, may truly be a freethinker.

Joe: "I'm a freethinker".
Militant atheist: "Congrats! When did you free yourself from the delusion of the fairy tale god?"
Joe: "Well, umm...I believe in god. Not the god of any religion, but a creator."
Militant Atheist: "Oh, so you're not a freethinker. You don't go strictly by logic and science. You believe in fairy tales. Your just a lazy atheist."
Joe: "Um...no. I actually came to this conclusion on my own. Using just science would mean I'm bound by a system, and that wouldn't be free thought. I base my belief on my perception of the world, and I don't stricly adhere to science nor religion. I freely think my way through the issues based on all the information available. I'm a freethinker!"

Get the Freethinker mug.One who forms their beliefs based on reason and science, and not on religion, authority, or tradition.
Despite what the term actually means, it is used by condescending people to describe themselves.
The irony of people who refer to themselves as freethinkers is that even though they believe they formed their opinions solely on reason and science, modern psychology disproves that people are capable of that.
