    Isn’t satanic temple not actually satanic tho? It began as a joke and actual opposition to church’s cruelty, no?

    But also, actual Satan also would be anti-fascist, at the very least because he isn’t exactly ruling hellp due to him wanting that job - it’s forced upon him by God and I am pretty sure he ain’t gonna be happy bout even more work xD

      True, but I think it’s also based on literal readings of the bible.

      It’s been a while since I read the bible but isn’t there something about him being cast out of heaven for rebelling against the kingdom of god?

      At the minimum that would give him one of the three arrows.

        He rebelled tho because god made humans and told angels to serve them, which pissed him off. He took it up to management, management told him to suck it up, he told management to suck him off, and well, rebelling against your all-powerfull creator can have only one kind of ending… ^^’

        But overall, Satan was - IIRC - shown as simply a champion of individualism. Care for yourself first above others etc. A really big lack of actual cruelty tho, that was old God’s domain.
