We Need to Talk About THAT Scene in Mr. Robot’s Season Two

American-Egyptian director Sam Esmail has outdone himself in season two of Mr. Robot. If you don’t know what that is? Well, it’s an award-winning series about a very antisocial hacker who’s only purpose is to wipe everyone’s debt by hacking eCorp, the largest conglomerate in the world.

The main character is portrayed by another brilliant American-Egyptian by the name of  Rami Malek who has left us all in awe of his performance in season one. How can Mr. Robot get any better? We were left with this question in the end of season one, and oh my, shit seriously hit the roof in season two.

In episode three, Malek gave one hell of a speech about religion and God. Although I do not agree with his speech whatsoever, and by whatsoever, I MEAN WHATSOEVER, his performance in that scene was absolutely sensational. No wonder he won Critics’ Choice Television Award of Best Actor in a Drama Series, and for sure that speech will get the Golden Globe award which he missed out on last year.

Here’s the speech. You can also watch it (up there). Note: This is not for people with weak faiths.

Is that what God does? He helps? Tell me, why didn’t God help my innocent friend who died for no reason while the guilty ran free? Okay. Fine. Forget the one offs. How about the countless wars declared in his name? Okay. Fine. Let’s skip the random, meaningless murder for a second, shall we? How about the racist, sexist, phobia soup we’ve all been drowning in because of him? And I’m not just talking about Jesus. I’m talking about all organized religion. Exclusive groups created to manage control. A dealer getting people hooked on the drug of hope. His followers, nothing but addicts who want their hit of bullshit to keep their dopamine of ignorance. Addicts. Afraid to believe the truth. That there’s no order. There’s no power. That all religions are just metastasizing mind worms, meant to divide us so it’s easier to rule us by the charlatans that wanna run us. All we are to them are paying fanboys of their poorly-written sci-fi franchise. If I don’t listen to my imaginary friend, why the fuck should I listen to yours? People think their worship’s some key to happiness. That’s just how he owns you. Even I’m not crazy enough to believe that distortion of reality. So f*** God. He’s not a good enough scapegoat for me.

WE SAID THIS: I’d like to give it up for Esmail and Malek!
