I did as well, but this time, I'm leaning into it. I joined and became a literal card-carrying member of The Satanic Temple, and you should too. They don't really have anything to do with Satan at all, but instead, work for equal rights and to fight Christo-fascists.

Joined TST myself. If the religious right are going to weaponize religion, then I'm making my stand with the TST.

TST does some amazing work. Been meaning to donate to become a card carrying member.
