The Satanic Temple

I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

It's a very informative and well put together video. For those of us who've known about a lot of the things Doug and Cevin have got up to both before TST began and since, it's interesting to see non-Satanic progressive activists beginning to look deeper into how they operate. It's also fascinating to witness the level of denial some current members operate under.

I think this is the 3rd YT-er to look at them. illuminaughti is obviously the biggest with their 1.5million subscribers but Dead Domain is much newer so whilst I think 'wannabe' is a bit harsh, it's true that 80k is not 1.5million. Even so, there's a few very interesting comments from past members and (appalled) current members learning all this for the first time in the comment section of that video.
