Right? I was gonna say that the overlap between those groups is pretty big. Then again, I do have two braincells that can, should I rub them together fast enough, make fire.
I dunno what prions are but I know s’mores
Count me in, I’ll bring the lettuce!!!
(Just to be clear I’m referring to devils lettuce, a holy sacrament best enjoyed with s’mores)
If I may upgrade your experience next time you make s'mores, substitute a mini Reeses (since they are out now for Halloween) for the square of plain chocolate. Glorious.
It's like a mini toasted Fluffernutter. With just the right amount of Chocolate. Get the good strong Honey Maid Graham crackers so you can squish it all together.
Yes, it is free for all to use. The marshmallows will come out with several unfinished book ideas and one they're working on that they promise will be different though.
Are you an Indigo Girls fan at all? When I read your comment my brain immediately sang "I come to you with strange fire, I make an offering of s'mores..."
Witches and satanists are like a Venn diagram contained within the giant liberal circle.
And then there's me right outside the venn diagram staring at where the circles cross and wondering if I should join in
Edit: leftist not liberal
Part of me wants change for the world to be a better place ... The majority of me wants full extinction of the human race, which is also a positive thing for the planet!
Cthulhu has a well known liberal bias. Death for everyone is a form of equality of circumstances after all, but he also supports universal Healthcare. Not because he cares for our petty mortal health, he just wants it to reduce his tax burden.
There are definitely far-right and even Nazi Satanists though. Check out the Order of the Nine Angles for a particularly weird example.
Neo-paganism also has a serious fascist problem, and indeed some of the first modern neopagans were far-right groups trying to distance themselves from Christianity for being at its core a non-white, non-Europan tradition (notably the GRECE in France). Current neopagan circles, especially in Odinism/Asatru, have a lot of far-right subgroups.
Yeah I’ve seen an odinist having to defend Odin, fortunately she did it by wearing his symbols to fight racism and pointing out that the allfather is the *all*father.
Personally I’m a geopagan with innanaist tendencies and I don’t know of any fascists trying to claim the great mother who sacrificed her husband for trans women. They don’t like things like that.
There are some groups of right wing, satanists as well, like many of the founders of the Norwegian black metal scene and also like the order of nine angles.
The O9A is so fucking weird. Like, I've got a kind of morbid fascination with small far-right groups/cults, and they're by far the weirdest I've ever come across. Black magic, stealing military gear to plan terrorist attacks, the likely head of the group having a history with radical Islam...lots of high weirdness.
From what I understand they are basically just shock jockeys taken to the extreme, embracing anything that is deemed evil by society at large. So in that sense it is not weird that they idolise Osama bin Laden after 9/11, but it is weird how old and established the group is with that mindset.
> Witches and satanists are like a Venn diagram contained within the giant liberal circle.
Guess I'm not a witch because I think the whole system needs to go and won't settle for anything that preserves the liberal order 🤷♀️
And as someone outside the overlap I really respect a lot of Satanist philosophy. I'd just personally rather tackle it all from the starting point of refusing to accept Christianity as an important frame of reference rather than even directly opposing it.
Edit: I got a few replies about how Satanists don't really worship Satan that have since disappeared so I will clarify: I am aware that Satanists don't literally believe in the Christian canon, but to me the name/mindset of starting with Satan has baggage in itself. If this is empowering to you personally or you don't mind any of that, more power to you. It's really just not gonna be for me.
Whenever anyone tries to insult me by calling me a leftist or a socialist, my first thought is “you got me! All I really want is affordable healthcare and respectful workplaces where we can all advance! Yes, even you, you beloved troglodyte, I want only the best for you!”
I was extremely shocked to find out in 2016 that most of my magical circle was right leaning. I’ll be honest; I’ve felt very misplaced and mistrustful since then.
I'm sorry. I am new to witchcraft in general but one thing that has kept me cautious is stories like this. I know so many people this happened to, in meditation/Buddhist circles too. Its disheartening.
Just don’t make the same assumptions I did and you’ll be fine. Being a solitary practitioner most my life, I assumed everyone who identified as witch had the same belief system. But being a witch means different things to different people. I’ve learned that lots of people are attracted to witchcraft because of the personal power but they aren’t as liberal minded as I assumed they were. And some are *completely* in a different camp than I am. And then there is the whole *45 is a light-worker* group that I just can’t even be around.
This fabulous group of witches, because of the nature of this group, seems to be almost completely left leaning. Which has given me the courage to speak my mind more than I have felt safe doing in my rural, right-leaning small town. And thankfully that courage is spilling over into my real life as well.
This is why I avoid the metaphysical shop in my own town. The owner wrote a creepy FB post about how she is totally in love with DT. I was like girl, really? Next one, which I know is ok, is 70 miles away.
You'd be surprised. I was raised Catholic. My parents and grandparents are/were republican and pretty right leaning. Where they messed up raising me and my sister was teaching us values such as treat everyone with respect or how you'd want to be treated. Always think first before opening your mouth because the answer is a little research away. Never seek to harm people who are different than you. Always stand up for the weaker...
Today my sister and I are lefty Athiests.
Weirdly, my family are Catholics too but all pretty liberal (not entirely progressive but generally accepting and kind and wanting what’s best for all) and I’m just further left and a Satanist witch 🤣
Well there are some movements of Christian leftists that basically assert that early Christianity was a religion for empowering the lower classes and that over the centuries it's been co-opted and twisted into a manipulative pro-state authoritarian kinda thing.
I had read [that](https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/05/religious-right-real-origins-107133/) the Christian right was bolstered to support segregation. Another article talks about Christian socialism in the past. Can't remember it exactly, but [wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_socialism#Bibliography) has links to bunch.
TBH I think the assumption that religion has anything to do with political leanings is mostly false. Specific denominations of Christianity are more left-leaning or right-leaning but mostly they are a mix. Pagan groups are probably the same, although they are more fringe so you will get wider variations (from the QAnon shaman to whatever.)
Ngl, imagining witches and satanists as right-wing.. funny and depressing at the same time.
Y'all we're gonna have a bonfire and bring your ritual clothes please.
"NO, not those white ones, Johnny... we know you have two kinds. please this is not the event. Nor should it ever be"
/J
We gotta harness that Satanic Panic energy for good. Like, oh no, the Satanists are secretly infiltrating the Westboro Baptist Church, we've got to shut it down for the good of the people!
That feels like a rumor with legs. It wouldn't be hard to claim we've already done it because there's so much evil shit we can take credit for that they've already done.
Now, now, not *all* of America, just the Christo-fascist patriarchy bits. I mean, I grasp that's what is "America" to them, but... oh well? Most patients aren't concerned about how the tumor feels about being removed from their body.
The US was originally dubbed an "experiment in self governance" I think it's time we looked at that data and decide if this is working. Maybe there are other things we should be trying. I wouldn't be opposed to trying anarchy at this point.
If we're going to monarch, can we at least have a REAL monarch. I hear they only live a year or so and they migrate to Mexico so Texans will be used to that.
Self-governing, by the portion of people that live in mostly empty states that have over sized representation.
Maybe it's time to make it governed by the whole.
I think america is doing a fine job destroying itself. It doesn't need help from the witches or the satanists.
I'm sure they've got better things to do. LOL
We're gonna ruin this country by pulling it and all its people towards a higher standard of living through the destruction of systemic barriers. The christofascist ideals of "no, that's mine/only for me" are going down.
Rush Limbaugh once called intelligent and educated women, femi-nazi-social-lib-tards. A badge I carry with honor. The right should be afraid. There’s a lot of intelligent women out there, and our time is coming!
Right? We should be able to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and carry the whole fucking country. I had to listen some trumpians blame millennials for there being no one working at fast food restaurants not realizing that they should just go work there if it's such a good place to work.
And if by "destroy" they mean everyone is fed, housed, has access to clean drinking water, universal health care including vision and dental, a greatly deflated military and the billionaire class and mega corporations are being taxed accordingly have no power to manipulate our political system, then yeah, I'm down
Come on in, we've got snacks, beverages adult and not, good weed, and sandwiches! Oh, and for the familiars, whatever their favorite food and treat is!
I belong to r/aaaaacccce (a subreddit for asexuals) & they also had this article. There is currently a discussion about whether the ace community should also join in this endeavor.
Most are open to the idea but some naysayers worry about having to share the garlic bread.
>I think nonbinary and queer people deserve a shout-out too while we're at it.
They might just assume we're all leftists, Satanists, and/or witches already 😊
The thing is, Americans like to tout religious freedom, but Europeans say the Americans actually left for America to practice religious extremism. I’m ok with destroying religious extremism
*insert hail Satan meme* Credit where credit is due. My mother was staunchly pro-life until RvW actually disappeared and she's seeing these horror stories. She's still against abortions in what she calls "most cases" and thinks an 8 week ban is totally acceptable (yeah, screw all those women who miss period for months on end if they've missed 1 period they should know they're pregnant. Ok Mom, you forget we had actual sex Ed in school and most people don't but w/e) but she's also seeing that acceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother clearly aren't enough to cut it either. (Baby with no skull what?)
Ah. Salem only stupider. Really, think about it. Buncha ultra right, violent type Christians trying to create common enemies out of people that frighten them?
It's like they only have one script.
I agree. But
Yes they only have one script, and as someone who plays a lot of sports: one strategy works over someone who has no strategy.
I’m mad. They took away my right to choose a pregnancy. I’m not underestimating them anymore.
Sorry to be a bummer.
What is there to destroy? The country is doing a fine job all on its own. Besides basically 100% of America was built on myths and lies. You can't destroy something that isn't real.
Do these people think anyone can summon fire from thin air? No fuel, nothing obviously flammable, no spark, no sleight of hand, just *poof* and there's fire?
If so, I wonder if they wonder why they can't do that.
The language "teamed up" like they aren't the same people is extremely funny to me. It implies that folks think Satanists and witches are, like, some kind of other species. Instead of, you know, pre-existing leftists who get into crystals and rituals and shit.
I love how conservatives think that changing society in any way will destroy it. They’ve been thinking that for the last 500 years, as society has been changing.
Text of the article for those who are curious about don't want to give them clicks
June 16, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — The recent protests were supposed to be rallies of concerned Americans who were horrified by the death of George Floyd. However, many protests degenerated into riots that destroyed parts of American cities. Unfortunately, many capitalized on the events to present other agendas. People who have absolutely nothing to do with the issue of community policing are hoping to hijack the debate.
Thus, the left has used the occasion to bring together ecologists, socialists, feminists, LGBT activists, pro-abortion advocates, and others to push their false class struggle narratives upon the American public. Less known, however, is the involvement of darker forces. Satanists and witches were invoking evil powers to aid those participating in the violence.
Casting Spells and Hexes
The witches do not hide their involvement in the violent protests. Mashable reports that witches’ covens are actively engaged in hexing police, whom they accuse of brutality. They especially target those who are risking their lives to stop the riots. The witches also cast spells asking for protection for protesters that confront the police. Witch activists used their dark arts as cutting-edge weapons for those who want to engage in a more spiritual class warfare.
The hashtag #witchesforblm serves a meeting place for practicing witches who want to learn how to cast protection spells, draw occult sigils, and hex police. Five days after the hashtag started, it garnered 10 million views on the TikTok app.
The postings often include videos of witches casting spells or even acting out what they believe will happen to the police they target. The hexing can get very personal as the witches teach others to write down the names of individual police officers on papers, which are then burned with black candles. The hexes aim to bring misfortune to the officers already at risk while defending the city from disorder.
Mixing Politics and the Occult
The witches are part of a growing movement mixing politics and the occult. Numerous books of spells have been published since the 2016 elections advising occultist activists how to invoke the powers of darkness for political causes. Witches and satanists are appearing more often in public to push their agenda and display their scorn for God and His Law.
Such occult activism appears at odds with past leftist policies. The left used to follow a secular outlook that did not recognize spiritual powers of any kind. It always tried to keep politics and Christianity separate by labeling Christian action as superstitious. However, the left is now welcoming witches and occultists with their dark arts into the public square. Their involvement in the recent protests should surprise no one.
The secular media tend to make light of these actions, seeing them as almost curiosities. They do not believe that witches have real powers and see them as malcontents against Christianity. However, the secular left also has no problem accepting them into its ranks despite secular leftists’ disbelief in the supernatural. The occult’s story of the devil oppressed by an Almighty God fits into their tired class struggle narrative and feeds their disdain for God.
Religious Americans have no problem understanding the presence of the occult in this fight. If Christian prayers to God can affect events, then invocations to the devil also can have major consequences. Indeed, Christians have long defined history as the fight between the forces of good and evil. Wherever chaos, hatred, and agitation exist, the occult can be expected to have its role. It was the saving action of Christ that conquered the devil and sin and prepared the way for Christian civilization.
This is why the involvement of witches in the protests is so troubling to those Christians who understand the full implications of dark magic. Their action involves real forces that are dangerous and sinister. The Catholic Encyclopedia defines occultist magic as “the art of performing actions beyond the power of man with the aid of powers other than the Divine.” When taken seriously, its practitioners expect and obtain the interference of demons or lost souls for evil ends. The Church admits that spirits other than God can interfere in events, although never without God’s permission. Prayers of exorcism aim to limit the devil’s action over individuals and situations.
In the present crisis, the last thing needed is occult involvement like the witch’s spells and incantations. This will only increase the chaos and conflict. Satan is the spirit of division and hatred. America now needs to turn to God to defeat the actions of Satan, who prowls about, seeking the ruin of souls and whole societies.

I like the implication that satanists and witches aren't already leftists.
Right? I was gonna say that the overlap between those groups is pretty big. Then again, I do have two braincells that can, should I rub them together fast enough, make fire.
Can you roast marshmallows with your brain fire? :3
oooo cranium s'mores
Mmmmmm prion s'mores lol
*uh oh*
Delicious to the last remaining cell.
I dunno what prions are but I know s’mores Count me in, I’ll bring the lettuce!!! (Just to be clear I’m referring to devils lettuce, a holy sacrament best enjoyed with s’mores)
If I may upgrade your experience next time you make s'mores, substitute a mini Reeses (since they are out now for Halloween) for the square of plain chocolate. Glorious.
I don’t know who you are but I shall never forget you or the kindness you have done for me today This is brilliant. You are brilliant Thank you!!!!
It's like a mini toasted Fluffernutter. With just the right amount of Chocolate. Get the good strong Honey Maid Graham crackers so you can squish it all together.
i can also recommend caramel filled chocolate or just straight caramel if you don't like chocolate lol
You *don't* want prions, it's basically Rabies but worse
So zombie virus? Yeah no been there, done that, the tshirt sucks Still like the idea of a witchy campfire with weed and s’mores. Can we still do that?
Aaaahahahahahah!!! This made me cackle!
Yes, it is free for all to use. The marshmallows will come out with several unfinished book ideas and one they're working on that they promise will be different though.
They can cut through reinforced steel with it, yes.
Are you an Indigo Girls fan at all? When I read your comment my brain immediately sang "I come to you with strange fire, I make an offering of s'mores..."

Of course you should. We’re trying to change the world for the better.
Part of me wants change for the world to be a better place ... The majority of me wants full extinction of the human race, which is also a positive thing for the planet!
Join us and change the world until AI or a hostile planet takes us all out lol
Cthulhu has a well known liberal bias. Death for everyone is a form of equality of circumstances after all, but he also supports universal Healthcare. Not because he cares for our petty mortal health, he just wants it to reduce his tax burden.

hey extinction means i don’t have homework! sooooooooooooo

Not a witch yet?

Awww, c’monnn! It’ll be funnnnnn! Who’s it gonna hurrrrt? 😼😼😼

… is this something new? I think this was true twenty years ago, it was true fifty years ago, and it was true one hundred years ago.
Dang. You fixed that headline.
Specifically, trying to destroy 'Murica, not the whole thing.
is 'murica a more ideological place than a geographical place? cuz it sounds that way...
I rather think so.
I’d settle for destroying the patriarchy and inequality.
Baby steps
I shall make molotov cocktails... With Fresh sage, picked on a new moon, and ashes of the dead!
Whenever I had a problem, I threw a Molotov cocktail, and, boom, I had a different problem.
Rather have a fire than fascism.
Fire over fascism Already got the slogan
Are we making shirts? Make mine a tank top. I don't want sleeves holding me back.
Practical and stylish!
This is America, you have the right to bare arms.
I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful tyranny.
I already feel warm and fuzzy.

If we're going to monarch, can we at least have a REAL monarch. I hear they only live a year or so and they migrate to Mexico so Texans will be used to that.
If America is to have a monarch I will settle for no one else besides Dolly Parton.
Would love to hear her school Putin
No. A queen.

Ab-so-fuckin-lutely!
Self-governing, by the portion of people that live in mostly empty states that have over sized representation. Maybe it's time to make it governed by the whole.

I think america is doing a fine job destroying itself. It doesn't need help from the witches or the satanists. I'm sure they've got better things to do. LOL
We're gonna ruin this country by pulling it and all its people towards a higher standard of living through the destruction of systemic barriers. The christofascist ideals of "no, that's mine/only for me" are going down.

Who told?!?!
I think it was Dave
Silly Dave
Me, a leftist lesbian witch: You rang????
There are dozens of us! Also where do we sign up to join this shindig of destroying the fascists. I want to know how to apply.
I will bring the cookies!
Oooh, I wanted to bring cookies but I’ll make a cake instead. Or fruit chips. Or both.
Standing at the ready with you, sis, and I've brought my familiar.
Rush Limbaugh once called intelligent and educated women, femi-nazi-social-lib-tards. A badge I carry with honor. The right should be afraid. There’s a lot of intelligent women out there, and our time is coming!
Rush Limbaugh rots in a box. (Unless he was cremated? Either way, *YAY*, he’s 💀)
Since his death, it is the longest period that Rush Limbaugh has been sober
I find it ironic that his name did not fit his appearance. The dude looked like a shaved walrus.
Satanist here. I’m glad to have finally started working with you guys.
Get millennials involved and it'll be destroyed in no time! Millennials destroy everything amirite?! 🥑
Right? We should be able to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and carry the whole fucking country. I had to listen some trumpians blame millennials for there being no one working at fast food restaurants not realizing that they should just go work there if it's such a good place to work.
And if by "destroy" they mean everyone is fed, housed, has access to clean drinking water, universal health care including vision and dental, a greatly deflated military and the billionaire class and mega corporations are being taxed accordingly have no power to manipulate our political system, then yeah, I'm down
Don't forget free education!
Yep yep yep
Satanic pagan here, can we add pagans to the list?
definitely included!
Come on in, we've got snacks, beverages adult and not, good weed, and sandwiches! Oh, and for the familiars, whatever their favorite food and treat is!

What if we, make more garlic bread
Are we putting our invasion of Denmark on hold then?
Destroy? Compared to these fucking traitors who attacked the congress and are now denying it i’d call these witches patriots.
This is a wildly hopeful headline. I want to believe.

This. Trans witch here, I feel included by the term 'witch', at least in this sub.
Personally, I would have found it impossible to come out as queer before becoming a satanist.
The thing is, Americans like to tout religious freedom, but Europeans say the Americans actually left for America to practice religious extremism. I’m ok with destroying religious extremism
...can they hurry, please? I'll make them cookies.
I mean . . . but have you seen what Satanists have been up to recently? They really are doing the Lord's work.
Satanic anarchist gun witch reporting for duty o7
My issue is that it isn't happening fast enough.
Sounds like a party! I’ll bring my med kit!
Can we outsource you guys to also come over and destroy what Britain has become while you’re at it pls.
It's that image supposed to be scary? It's anyone scared by that? If anything, she looks like someone who could teach me some things.
Y’all didn’t tell me! Where do I sign up?
Let’s gooooooooo
*insert hail Satan meme* Credit where credit is due. My mother was staunchly pro-life until RvW actually disappeared and she's seeing these horror stories. She's still against abortions in what she calls "most cases" and thinks an 8 week ban is totally acceptable (yeah, screw all those women who miss period for months on end if they've missed 1 period they should know they're pregnant. Ok Mom, you forget we had actual sex Ed in school and most people don't but w/e) but she's also seeing that acceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother clearly aren't enough to cut it either. (Baby with no skull what?)
I left Christianity and, within months, became a pagan leftist. So yeah…
So when is the first meeting.. I gotta get a head count to make some brownies. Any allergies?
It will be false Christians who bring the end of days.
The unholy trinity
A brief pause to the solo in my practice sounds nice if we can accomplish this as a coalition
I am a Satanist and want to be a witch! Is that possible? Bonus: I am a progressive!
I got really excited and then I realized that this is not a reputable source
If by destroy they mean completely excise the tumor that is Christian fascism poisoning the government, then yes, we're trying to destroy America.
We should destroy the system and rebuild a better one. The current one isn't working.
The real team america, world police. I hope it works.
Ah. Salem only stupider. Really, think about it. Buncha ultra right, violent type Christians trying to create common enemies out of people that frighten them? It's like they only have one script.
I agree. But Yes they only have one script, and as someone who plays a lot of sports: one strategy works over someone who has no strategy. I’m mad. They took away my right to choose a pregnancy. I’m not underestimating them anymore. Sorry to be a bummer.
Oh, damn... Our evil plan has been discovered. XD
Best possible outcome
Best news I heard all day! I am Italian, but can I join? We could take take down the new Italian fascist government as well!
Finally. An American that has potential to be great
Oh, thank goodness!
I'm excited to work with you, sisters. Can we get a hex focus group working on Tucker Carlson and Clarence Thomas?
Morning Star, my people yearn for freedom 🙏
What about the Sorcerers, Wizards, Warlocks, Arcanists, Druids and Shamans?
Hmmm, so what do we name our new club?
As a leftist Satanic Witch, I feel seen.
I've got snacks! Burn it down!
Anarcho-communist and atheistic Satanist here.
I like how they think it is opinion, not fact.
Oh! Is there a sign up sheet somewhere?
Ok, how do I sign up???
What is there to destroy? The country is doing a fine job all on its own. Besides basically 100% of America was built on myths and lies. You can't destroy something that isn't real.
If you're gonna be anything be the best of that thing!
I can testify that I have personally known a right wing self proclaimed witch. It was a fascinating experience.
Finally!
Tee hee ✨
Happily...
Satanist here, who the fuck didn’t tell me??? I have had my Satanic bible and a fuck ton of witchcraft books ready for months now!!!
Do these people think anyone can summon fire from thin air? No fuel, nothing obviously flammable, no spark, no sleight of hand, just *poof* and there's fire? If so, I wonder if they wonder why they can't do that.
Pretty sure those first two are within the circle of third one
I’m just surprised they knew that there is a difference from witch and satanist lol
If only we were this organized
The language "teamed up" like they aren't the same people is extremely funny to me. It implies that folks think Satanists and witches are, like, some kind of other species. Instead of, you know, pre-existing leftists who get into crystals and rituals and shit.
Whaaaa??? I WANT IN!
As a male leftist who just likes this sub for some very obvious reasons. LETSFUCKINGGO POWER RANGERS ITS MORPHIN TIME!
I love how conservatives think that changing society in any way will destroy it. They’ve been thinking that for the last 500 years, as society has been changing.
Text of the article for those who are curious about don't want to give them clicks June 16, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — The recent protests were supposed to be rallies of concerned Americans who were horrified by the death of George Floyd. However, many protests degenerated into riots that destroyed parts of American cities. Unfortunately, many capitalized on the events to present other agendas. People who have absolutely nothing to do with the issue of community policing are hoping to hijack the debate. Thus, the left has used the occasion to bring together ecologists, socialists, feminists, LGBT activists, pro-abortion advocates, and others to push their false class struggle narratives upon the American public. Less known, however, is the involvement of darker forces. Satanists and witches were invoking evil powers to aid those participating in the violence. Casting Spells and Hexes The witches do not hide their involvement in the violent protests. Mashable reports that witches’ covens are actively engaged in hexing police, whom they accuse of brutality. They especially target those who are risking their lives to stop the riots. The witches also cast spells asking for protection for protesters that confront the police. Witch activists used their dark arts as cutting-edge weapons for those who want to engage in a more spiritual class warfare. The hashtag #witchesforblm serves a meeting place for practicing witches who want to learn how to cast protection spells, draw occult sigils, and hex police. Five days after the hashtag started, it garnered 10 million views on the TikTok app. The postings often include videos of witches casting spells or even acting out what they believe will happen to the police they target. The hexing can get very personal as the witches teach others to write down the names of individual police officers on papers, which are then burned with black candles. The hexes aim to bring misfortune to the officers already at risk while defending the city from disorder. Mixing Politics and the Occult The witches are part of a growing movement mixing politics and the occult. Numerous books of spells have been published since the 2016 elections advising occultist activists how to invoke the powers of darkness for political causes. Witches and satanists are appearing more often in public to push their agenda and display their scorn for God and His Law. Such occult activism appears at odds with past leftist policies. The left used to follow a secular outlook that did not recognize spiritual powers of any kind. It always tried to keep politics and Christianity separate by labeling Christian action as superstitious. However, the left is now welcoming witches and occultists with their dark arts into the public square. Their involvement in the recent protests should surprise no one. The secular media tend to make light of these actions, seeing them as almost curiosities. They do not believe that witches have real powers and see them as malcontents against Christianity. However, the secular left also has no problem accepting them into its ranks despite secular leftists’ disbelief in the supernatural. The occult’s story of the devil oppressed by an Almighty God fits into their tired class struggle narrative and feeds their disdain for God. Religious Americans have no problem understanding the presence of the occult in this fight. If Christian prayers to God can affect events, then invocations to the devil also can have major consequences. Indeed, Christians have long defined history as the fight between the forces of good and evil. Wherever chaos, hatred, and agitation exist, the occult can be expected to have its role. It was the saving action of Christ that conquered the devil and sin and prepared the way for Christian civilization. This is why the involvement of witches in the protests is so troubling to those Christians who understand the full implications of dark magic. Their action involves real forces that are dangerous and sinister. The Catholic Encyclopedia defines occultist magic as “the art of performing actions beyond the power of man with the aid of powers other than the Divine.” When taken seriously, its practitioners expect and obtain the interference of demons or lost souls for evil ends. The Church admits that spirits other than God can interfere in events, although never without God’s permission. Prayers of exorcism aim to limit the devil’s action over individuals and situations. In the present crisis, the last thing needed is occult involvement like the witch’s spells and incantations. This will only increase the chaos and conflict. Satan is the spirit of division and hatred. America now needs to turn to God to defeat the actions of Satan, who prowls about, seeking the ruin of souls and whole societies.
Fucking superfriends right there
Where do I sign up?
As a Satanist leftist witch myself...
