The Satanic Temple

I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

Empathy Reason Justice
That's what it says on the banner the eagle is holding. Who else champions for empathy? Conservatives mock it and call it woke, beta, simp, soyboy, feminazis, and whatever else nametag they wanna affix that sounds bad but the bottom line is they demonize empathy.
I dont even see empathy really be held up in their culture. It is more like praising the compassion and perhaps then the help or forgiveness you give. You're just a victim and they are just a villain you can turn the other cheek to.
