Scott is hilariously uninformed
Elsewhere he is comparing their orwelian chipset distribution control scheme to health inspectors making sure supermarkets don’t sell spoiled milk. He just says whatever as long as he thinks it’ll help convince more people than it drives away, and his fanbase goes along with it because they think that’s how you get to be the normie whisperer.
This makes me feel there really is no telling what actual agenda the rationaltruists’ would enact if they ever get to actually dictate policy.

This is an important point. If we treat Scott in particular as though he’s speaking in good faith then his arguments are nonsensical. This is not because he’s a fool but because he isn’t speaking in good faith, and his actual worldview appears to be much more amenable to outright fascism and actual totalitarianism than he would suggest here.
