#scientologyformallgoths — Public Fediverse posts

We've long said that the best way to describe The Satanic Temple to someone unfamiliar with them is "#ScientologyForMallGoths".

So imagine instead it were Scientologists doing this.

Would you still root for them just because Republicans were the ones getting publicly mad?

If media only ever treated #Scientology like merry pranksters, never getting into the front companies, treatment of former members, or histories of the owners of a corporate religion, would that be informing people of what’s going on?

Or would it be doing the exact opposite.

This is a religion that is now suing Newsweek for **reporting on** our #SLAPP, by the way.

The Satanic Temple claimed, with no trace of irony, that it was #defamatory for #Newsweek to report anyone comparing TST to #Scientology.

The claim very predictably failed.

Again: #ScientologyForMallGoths

The idea #TheSatanicTemple actively commits resources to spy on and threaten people who criticize them on social media isn’t some conspiracy theory to be debunked with “the smallest amount of research” - it’s something that #TST flatly admitted in federal court they do.

Also, the fact that this pseudonymous contractor’s statement (" #RachelChambliss ") shows up in a doomed 11th-hour briefing — in a demand that was legally and constitutionally *incapable* of being granted in The Satanic Temple's favor, but was filed anyway — is a bright neon sign as to what “further review” actually means for #TST.

#ScientologyForMallGoths

Had a real fun time educating people about #TheSatanicTemple (#ScientologyForMallGoths) today at #Seattle #PrideFest on #CapHill.

Thanks to the friends who came out to support the four #QueerSatanic #Heretics still being sued by The Satanic Temple in federal appellate court and now King County Superior Court.

#TST is also still suing Newsweek and its reporter (but maybe not her anymore!) for writing about us. In addition, the #SatanicTemple is now suing a TikToker in Texas for talking about our case. Check the profile link for more.
