Exactly. It ultimately boils down the the Truth behind all truths. We're in a spiritual warfare against the principalities not of this world. Today it's the malthusian transhumanist elite, tomorrow evil may take another form as it has done throughout history.
You'll notice people who reject Christ and blaspheme Him are the most deluded of all in normieland. They're literally in living hell without knowing it. "Spiritual death is worse than physical death. Make no mistake - the Church Fathers teach us that foretasting both heaven and hell start here on Earth, depending on how we orient our will - either towards God or against Him.
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Romans 1
Rejection of God debases the mind. This is the reason they are blind to all this.
Materialism always reduces to determinism which makes knowledge impossible because if we're all determined in out output, then there's no evaluator who's able to choose between the true and the false proposition.
It's a self-refuting position. There's nothing to argue about. If a person can't grasp this rather simple argument, then they are either too low IQ and shouldn't bother with philosophical inquiry, or their mind is broken which as St. Paul says is a moral problem and not an intellectual one. Most atheists you see arguing online are the second category.

Sounds like the exact same reason people reject Jesus and remain unsaved.

Look at this. Wallstreet_au is destroying Dieter, and he didn't even rebut the fact athiesm would strip free will if it were true!
