Was a great video until he got to the part were he decides that because Sam's "greater good/manufactured God of curating the reality of stupid people" is a warped and narcissistic enterprise that is entirely dependent on subordinating the will of the masses to his dogmatic liberalism; it means that we NEED God instead. Which is literally that SAME THING as religion.

Mas Rharis "We don't need God! We need Jeff Goldblum from Jurassic Park to manufacture a God out of a "greatter good abstraction" and the use the state to enforce the will of this greater good abstraction! They don't have free will anyway! So it doesn't matter what I have to do to get the societal outcomes I desire!"
