Why do conspiracy theorists bang on about Hollywood actors and other powerful people being "satanists"?


If you want to argue the existence of clandestine societies in Hollywood and among powerful figures, I'll listen. Psychopathy? Sure. Pedophilia? Probably.

But seriously, satanism? With rituals often involving the consumption of childrens' blood? It's like the conspiracy theorists went for the silliest, most over-the-top caricature of evil they could think of.

Never got my answer.

reply

You got your answer now and never responded.

reply

Not sure that's how it works.

reply

Because hollywood supports so many evil practices.

pornography
nudity
homosexuality
fornication
drug use
transgenders
DEI
anti family
anti marriage
anti God
anti Christianity
anti religion


You're welcome. Now that you understand dont bring up this topic again.

I'll do what I feel like doing, champ.

reply

Cause you know I speak truth. There's nothing you can say to refute my post.

reply

I didn't say you weren't speaking the truth...

reply

I didn’t realise they did 🤷‍♂️

reply

Sure do. Talking about the Alex Jones/David Icke types, and their many followers.

reply

I always thought David Icke was always going on about Lizard People.

reply

Daily Wire types do: Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles.

In Britain we don't have that shit.

reply

Not really my thing.

reply

That’s exactly the sort of thing a satanic baby-eating lizard person would say🤨

reply

Curses! Foiled again.

reply

This is why I wrap my head in tinfoil, it disrupts the gamma rays of you sorts!

reply

Taylor Swift is into Satanism, I guarantee she is with her obsession for the #13

reply

That’s her date of birth (I only know this because my 9 year old daughter is a Swifty - honest).

reply

I understand this, but she is obsessed with this number along with Numerology in general

I'd like to remind all the people on here that this is the thread poster who laughed about content warnings about outdated stereotypes about Italians, crying about satanism.

Shane Lynch is a fundamentalist catholic. He recently got upset about Bambi Thug at Eurovision.

He is not remotely a reliable narrator.

It's a very long list.

reply

What does most of this have anything to do with satanism specifically?

You may not like most of those things, and think they're bad, but it's completely possible and normal for people to 'support' them (or write things with them depicted) without being satanic.

reply

I never claimed they were satanists. I said people might think that because they support so many of the evils of this world.

As usual, running off in the wrong misdirection to jade the discussion.

reply

He did not remotely represent it as why other people might claim it, but suggested that those things are automatically satanic.

reply

He saw I wasn't going to play his game so he ran off like the sniveling little bitch he is.

reply

What game did you think I was trying to get you to play? The point I made is just because something is in opposition to a christian conservative ethos doesn't make it satanic.

reply

Remember a few days ago when you said Jesus was white? Now that was funny.

reply

What? I don't recall commenting on Jesus at all anywhere

reply

You claimed jews were white.

reply

💺🍿

reply

Jews. Are you going to argue that Bernie Sanders is not white?

Do you consider, incidentally, Spanish people white? Or accept the "White Hispanic" category?

reply

So that would make Jesus white? Wouldnt it?

reply

Some Jews can be non-white, some may not be. Most in the western world are white. Much like how many hispanic people are white. Jesus is widely to have been considered ethnically a Galilean Semite, which would've included a tanned complexion. Obviously not the original blue eyes, pale, light brown hair depiction he has often been given in media.

Are you going to argue that Bernie Sanders is not white?

reply

So jews are white and non white? That sounds like some leftist double speak.

I'm not arguing that Bernie Sanders is anything. Is he 100% jewish? I dont know or care.

reply

>I'm not arguing that Bernie Sanders is anything. Is he 100% jewish? I dont know or care.

"Born into a working-class Jewish family and raised in the Brooklyn borough of New York City, Sanders attended Brooklyn College before graduating from the University of Chicago in 1964."

>So jews are white and non white? That sounds like some leftist double speak.

Some Hispanic people are not white. Some are.

I occasionally go to a church that is primarily spanish speaking and all of them are hispanic, not one of them is white. They have dark skin, coal black hair and very specific facial features. I've never seen a white hispanic. If there were any white hispanics I'd bet they have one white parent. I mainly go to a church on the other side of town that has hispanics, whites, asians, blacks and samoans.

Which makes me laugh when I hear someone from the left use the phrase "white church" or "white Christian" I dont know what that even means. What is a white church or a white Christian? and no I am not claiming you used that term, it just reminded me how stupid those people sound.

reply

Is a white church one that is painted white?

reply

are you a wise guy?

reply

I’m funny how, I mean funny like I’m a clown? I amuse you?

reply

hahahaa don't fall for his time waste, man! :D

reply

I'm very familiar with her tactics. I was told the sniveler is a transgender, so please respect her pronouns dude. I'm not sure how accurate this info is, but just to be safe and to avoid hurting his feelings let's just call him a woman.

reply

You were lied to. Do you consider lying satanic?

reply

I was talking about the sniveler. Are you now identifying yourself as the sniveler?

reply

As far as I can read it, you were already calling me the "sniveller".

reply

Dude we cant have two snivelers on this board. You're just being ridiculous now.

reply

doesn't he sound like an idiotly programmed ai bot??

reply

Dude, 3 million people in Texas identify as white hispanics.

reply

Because these particular conspiracy theories ultimately stem from right-wing, often (but not always) fundamentalist Christian Americans who often have theocratic impulses, are often heavy on Biblical literalism and actually believe that a literal Satan exists.

Essentially, many of these people believe that atheism, secularism, liberalism, socialism and Satanism are all effectively the same thing or that the first four are driven by the latter.

It's a belief system, basically. A brand of Christian thought that thrives in the USA because of its history and its version of religious freedom with no established church.

As church attendances continue to fall in the USA and religiosity dwindles to something approaching European levels, these particular strands of thought will disappear back to the fringes. But for now they're having a bit of a moment in the sun.

We are probably witnessing its long death-rattle.

reply

jeeze, i hope so. but then i recall the anecdote about ben gurion taking his kid/s to see the orthodox jews because he thought that in a few generations, they would be nothing but a memory.

primitivism has its own drawing power.

reply

I don't understand why people bang on about Satanism at all, honestly. It never actually existed in any meaningful sense until the 1960s, and even then, it's really just a mix of half-baked Nietzscheanism and teenage take-that-mom-and-dad edgelord attitude.

reply

I know someone online who explained his situation. He said "Satanists" are all atheists who want protection to avoid paying taxes, and atheism isn't covered.
