The modern storytelling trope you won't be able to unsee

For November 2025's patron video, I explore a narrative pattern that's extremely prevalent in contemporary storytelling. It's in Neil Gaiman's stories, the movies Constantine, Hellboy, K-Pop Demon Hunters, The Matrix, even superhero and vigilante stories. This trope is so ubiquitous that even Christians can be seduced by it. I hope you enjoy this video. Thank you for your continued support.
