In regards to a (completely fictional) Satanic organization and how a literal devil-worshipper in that universe might regard someone using Satanism for more straightforwardly venal purposes

David: How do you know they don't believe?"
Leland Townsend: Look at this. 'We're not a time-share.'
Townsend: Look at these pictures. Kids, picnics.
Townsend: 'Satan cares about your future.' What, are they in
David: What is belief in Satan about?
Townsend: Power. Rejection of authority. Manipulation. Viole

Longtime followers of TST’s legal history will know The Satanic Temple is, by design, a far greater threat to its own members than it has ever been interested in, or capable of, posing to the Christian Right. It’s still WILD to see TST explicitly confirming this in its own FAQ 🧵 From The Satanic Temple’s website’s FAQ section: “I saw something disparaging about TST online” TST's activities typically receive widespread support and glowing reviews. Unfortunately, our efforts sometimes attract negative attention from evangelists, violent abusers, and those seeking to profit from criticism of us. Some of these people join TST so that they can claim to be former members. Negative comments are often outright lies and defamatory. In instances where there is libel, we often take legal action. If you come across sensational accusations, the smallest amount of research is e...
There’s a lot to unpack here, but let’s start with the obvious:

In short, The Satanic Temple is:
- ineffective at what it promises to do
- opaque in regards to its finances
- structured to be internally authoritarian with unaccountable leadership; and
- its two owners have troubling interests that show up in TST's work repeatedly
But when it comes to The Satanic Temple, there's always more and it's always worse.

Usually—and this is not a joke—when people learn more about The Satanic Temple's owners Doug Misicko ("Lucien Greaves") and Cevin Soling ("Malcolm Jarry"), and their business practices, the unprompted comparison folks make is "Scientology"

this is a lie

> Thanks to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the First Amendment, TST members *can* access their bodily autonomy rights.

We'd never begrudge someone for following their dreams in their autumn days

but it will never stop being *weird* that Doug Misicko is working thru his midlife crisis this way, right?

not just publicly, but directly drafting off his religious corporation
Twitter screenshot. Lucien Greaves @LucienGreaves The legend
wild to watch a dude promote his for-profit corporation, tax-exempt church, nonprofit, OTHER for-profits, and personal band—all on the same website!

really: imagine Joel Osteen selling midlife crisis band merch on his church's site

Today is a good day...

The locals here are admitting out loud that they have no real grounds for opposing this guy who is a member of The Satanic Temple

Hopefully Salem will stay far away from this one b/c this is potentially a good case for a competent org
there is an awful lot to object to about The Satanic Temple, sure

but you'd be right to bet the good people of Fort Dodge, Iowa, did not care about any of those things Fritz returns to Fort Dodge...
to be clear, since it wasn't in the tweet last nite, the local government isn't doing anything untoward here by appointing a former council member to fill a recent vacancy
