youtu.be/lmN1Op8ygno?si=NFh2t_2WMtARK1O5 We may be in the midst of an occultism resurgence, both in popular media and everyday life

The origins of SP can arguably be traced back to the late 1960s, when movies like Rosemary’s Baby jettisoned Satanism from a niche hobby and into mainstream attention. But yeah… It definitely was at it’s strongest during The 80s

Here’s the aforementioned scene from American Fiction youtu.be/4UkZRJeg9Ls?si=Trf64XtHXKVNk7vD A forum for Unpopular Opinions isn’t likely to succeed, when it’s moderators are cut from the same mold as that chick who runs to the dean, after her professor refuses to sanitize the language of Flannery O’Connor

Starting to wonder, after seeing this youtu.be/XJ-D3xVancs?si=m3mbEpY9ljWxaOzc

Will the plot twist here be that Margaret, and not Carlita, is the mother of The Anti-Christ

Go back and watch evening news magazines like 20/20 and A Current Affair that were filmed in the early 90s. The glitterati and the public at large were still very much convinced that satanic cults were lurking around every corner. '95-'96 was the year we finally lost interest in this particular moral panic, and moved onto sweating the tidal wave of teen superpredators that Hillary Clinton astutely foresaw coming

“Death is just around the corner for me”

Relax… It’s safe bet that you’ll survive longer than Armie Hammer’s chances for a career revival

Dude’s 30 years late to the party… Satanic cults ceased to be our culture’s preferred boogeyman back in the mid 90s

This is the same Stewart who pulls shit like this thegrayzone.com/…/jon-stewart-pentagon-ukrainian-… , all while posing as a Progressive ally for the cameras. We mistake singularly witless “comedians” like this as forces to be reckoned with at our own peril

The culture of free speech is definitely under assault as well thefire.org/…/free-speech-culture-elon-musk-and-t… , this is true

Awoke this morning and discovered that a comment I left in the Lemmy Shitpost forum(Once again, the offended party doesn’t specify which post they’ve deleted)was expunged, and I quote the message directly “for the following reason: Weird”

The censor and I are in something approaching agreement here: It is really fucking weird to A). Send someone a message like that and expect them to know what you’re referring to, and B). Believe that this is a justifiable reason to delete a comment to begin with

I wish you all godspeed in keeping mods on “staff”, so long as lemmy’s leadership continues to behave in such an unforgivably moronic fashion
