Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

In some places it never left.
Did you know if you play reversed Highway to Hell backwards, they say hell in it?
I mean a lot of us lost a lot of older relatives to a cult so I guess turnabout is fair play.
You sold your children's souls to a cult the minute you made them salute a piece of colored fabric every day, Tommy. It's too late to start whining about it now.
Christianity?
"Satanic cults" where everyone agrees Christianity is the one true religion but some people just decide to side with the bad guy because they're bad is hilarious on its face and it's wild it keeps causing these panics.
“We have never overcome a cult like we’re dealing with right now.”
More projection.
Sounds like we can totally squash this christain movement then!!
Idiot.
shut up tommy nothing that cool is happening. Less people give a fuck about your dumb desert wizard because you are using him as an excuse to hurt people
Oh, he realized what Trump really is?
This dipshit hates America. Get the country back to which god? This is a secular country. Go fuck yourself with that nonsense.
This is a secular country.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people in this country who disagree. They try to twist the words of the founders to imply freedom of Christian religion. Even some of my more reasonable family members, who won't be voting for Trump, still think this is a Christian nation.
Freedom of means nothing without also having a freedom from. Also, the people twisting the words are doing just that - it doesn't take much to blow up the "this is a xtian nation" narrative at all.
And they'll be better people because of it. Win/win!
That's like the one and only religion that actually respects humanity, so even taking this guy's bullshit at face value, it's still good news lol.
Tenets of satanism:
I - One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
II - The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.
III - One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
IV - The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.
V - Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.
VI - People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.
VII - Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
There are real-life unironic evil Satanists. They're Nazis and they (along with others) target children online, expose them to abhorrent content, convince them to self harm, exploit them sexually, and bully them to commit suicide. All for lols and clout.
This isn't what Tuberville was talking about. He senses evil through vibes. Demons who support abortion, do sex in the butt, and worst of all: hate football.
These are the tenets of The Satanic Temple (TST) not the Church of Satan. They are different.
I'm largely unfamiliar with the Church of Satan. How does the Church of Satan differ from The Satanic Temple?

Check the image from the other comment. It does a great job of summing it up quickly. 😊
Yum, bleu cheese
Every accusation is an admittance.
Oh look it's the Satanic Panic again...
