The fact that Aloy is a white (conventionally attractive, skinny, able-bodied, young) woman who goes around disparaging tradition and culture and wrecking people's religions in the name of saving the world all while carrying around a (justified in universe) complex about her own genetic superiority, it, uh.

It bad.

... huh. That. Like I associate that kind of dismissive highhanded atheism with post-Christian American atheists I guess? That's not what our atheists are like, our atheists are all tired.

Oh don't get me wrong there are plenty of those around, but they're a minority compared to the Christians.

Like "replace Jesus with some combination of technology, money, or hobbies" is IME a very common ideology among atheists. But the US would not be the kind of hellhole it is without a massive evangelical population.
