Sam was super popular back when when the New Atheist movement was alive and well (~10-15 years ago) when hating on conservatives and Christians was popular with anyone under the age of 30.
Then the slippery slope hit the West hard and the cracks in the movement began to show. People realized none of the claims the New Atheists made about religion were actually true, and began to see how the New Atheists were just as dogmatic as the religious people they hated. This was assisted in no small part by JBP who introduced a new way of looking at religion that allowed atheists to appreciate its utility without requiring them to acknowledge supernatural influences. This was basically the nail in the coffin for the movement.
After the death of New Atheism, most atheists now are either (#1) fanatical followers of the woke religion, or (#2) normal non-religious people who see religion as silly at worst or useful at best, but either way far preferable to the woke religion that is in the process of destroying our culture from the inside.
Sam always had "Jesus Derangement Syndrome", and since Trump entered the political scene it appears he has "Trump Derangement Syndrome". Sam clearly has something wrong with him; a weak point or blind spot that he just can't get past.

It was the "Atheism plus" movement that killed it.
When a bunch of marxists tried to turn it from being about relentlessly debunking religious arguments to being about progressive politics. When supposed atheists began making excuses for islamists.
That was when all the sane people - myself included - bailed.
The final nail in the coffin was hammered in by none other than Richard Dawkins himself, when he publicly concluded that he had begun to see Christianty - as flawed as it was - as 'a bulwark against something worse'. That was at the start of 2016.
