Is it possible for poor people to be atheists or nihilistic?
Yes. Look at me.
Why shouldn't it be?

They generally are, except in the vaguest most abstract sensibilities.
Poor people tend to be more religious. It helps them cope.

no
poor people want to be rich. poor people are castrated hedonist; they have not the means of their hedonism. of course, they are hedonist before being poor, so they do not use their misery into the understanding the nature of their misery, in using reflexivity to get out of their mess: they still have faith in hedonism and fail to see that even rich people, above the middle class, have the same life as them in dwelling for decades in leisure/entertainment No wonder why writers, philosophers, intellectuals are most of the time bourgeois.
reminder that hedonism is the
-the belief in some self
-the existence of the self goes at least into
-- the desires
---of avoiding pains
---of getting pleasures
--the experiences of pains and pleasures themselves
sex is the foremost activity in which hedonists identify themselves, then comes other pleasures such as foods, travels, music, cars and so on.

Poor is relative, friend
"Le atheists are privileged" meme
The only reason privileged people are more atheistic is they have the time to cognize how bullshit It is. When you're working you don't think about how retarded it is.

Regardless, poor people in rich countries atleast have the luxury to realise atheism or nihilism or any philosophical belief.
If you actually were poor in a 3rd world country you would be forced to survive in any way you can or starve. And since you're more likely to believe in a religion as part of the cultural identity in that poor country, suicide is not an option.
Belief in Atheism is a luxury in itself.

Kek, no.
It is overwhelmingly established at a global level that the poor and uneducated are more religious.
Randomly whining about hedonism or nihilism isn't going to change that fact, no matter how hard you squeak and plead and squeal.

After making a post talking about religion at a macro level and the links between poverty and religion on a global scale why would I rule out all the poor and uneducated shitholes just to suit your shabby greentext?

Why wouldn't those count?
Most poor people aren't even religious, just superstitious with a religious coating

not sure.
of course, you are right since Atheism is going strong in the richest countries. but popular disbelief in god has been very popular even in extremely poor societies through history, see all the heresies in the middle age or jewish atheism
