Fun Fact

Hi, sorry to bother you. I felt the need to point out a bit of misinformation in one of your reblogs. The Satanic Temple is NOT an alt-right organization. They're one of the most well-known and outspoken advocates for reproductive rights, queer rights, social and racial justice, religious freedom, and separation of church and state. They have fought and won lawsuits against government institutions imposing christofascist law on Americans. They are anti-fascist in every sense of the word and OP lumping them in with ACTUAL neo-nazi groups is incredibly misinformed and misguided.
Hey @captain-crackship! I appreciate you spending the time to send this to me. I was also under the impression that The Satanic Temple was a "good" organization, up until a year or two ago. When reproductive rights were under fire here in Texas, I was fully convinced that they could help me get an abortion - I personally even went so far as to get myself a "membership card" - since then, there has been a LOT of info to come about about them - you can read more about it here. This blog post (and the entire site itself) is also a great resource for queer Satanists and even has several articles on The Satanic Temple and its problematic practices.
Unfortunately, because of the organization's title and reputation, I think a lot of pagans/witches will jump to defend The Satanic Temple whenever possible, in an attempt to avoid agreeing with Christians and other organized religions (I mean, come on, they've all been fighting against The Satanic Temple for God knows how long). However, this has much less to do with religion itself and more about human rights and organized religions.
That being said, I obviously need to throw in that Satanism itself is not bad or harmful, the church is just corrupt. I just don't think they need anyone's money.
Also! Here's a link to an updated post from the OP of that reblog you mentioned. The OP did mention that the organization itself isn't far-right, but higher-ups involved in the church have some problematic history of being nazi apologists, white supremacists, far-right learning, etc. Hopefully this clarifies things!
Satanic Planet to Perform at Indiana Statehouse, Defying Legal Challenge
In a bold move that defies legal challenges, a musical group affiliated with The Satanic Temple (TST) is set to take the stage at Indiana’s Statehouse later this month. Satanic Planet, led by TST co-founder Lucien Greaves, secured permission to perform at this iconic venue after several months of negotiations, including a legal standoff. The groundbreaking performance is scheduled for noon on…
"Wow, you're so self-aware! It takes most people years of therapy and dedication to get to that point." Thanks, I constantly feel completely disconnected from my physical being and the material sensation of my body, brain, and spirit/soul is so overwhelming that I often have to see myself as an objective third-party instead of an integrated entity. Father son holy spirit and all that.
The Satanic Temple has consistently failed at every single legal battle it's attempted to get religious exemption from abortion bans, it cannot and will not protect your reproductive rights, and I would greatly appreciate it if people stopped mentioning it on every post about Roe vs Wade.
You want to support a good organization that's fighting for your reproductive rights? Then look at one of the many lists of reputable reproductive care and abortion clinics circulating and support your local clinics who are desperately fighting to make sure that you have the ability to decide what happens to your body.
The Satanic Temple is not on your side, your local reproductive healthcare providers are.
