This article makes me like the company a lot less. Never had that reaction to a puff piece before.

I mean satanic parties? Not because some of their employees are satanists, but because they like the look?

They know they’re going to miff some people, and one of them is me.

I don’t care what religion their employees are. But when they’re endorsing one religious group to piss off another?

I don’t have to like it, and I don’t. Plenty of movies coming out. Plenty I haven’t seen that came out years and decades ago.

If they weren’t in such a competitive market, i probably wouldn’t care. But they’re so easy to avoid, why not?

This is a ridiculous take.

The Satanic Temple is about as much of a “real” religious group as The Church of the Sub-Genius or Pastafarians. If you’re equating them with other organized religions… well honestly, they probably find it hilarious that someone is taking them this seriously.

Y’know what, nevermind, carry on. Fight the good fight!
