You’re telling me there’s no reason for us to have any say or influence, and then you turn around and complain that the system is authoritarian.

You’re contradicting yourself. No wonder you’re having trouble with this.

It's not a contradiction at all. I can't think of any reason why we should have any influence over an all knowing, all seeing omnipotent being.

Can you think of a reason to question omnipotence?

I'm not complaining about it, because I'm not a theist and don't see evidence for its existence. I'm just observing the fact that if such a celestial dictatorship existed, it would be authoritarian.
