Latest / Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show! / Satanist Leader Not Woke Enough
Transcript
- 0:03Well, folks, I guess this proves the point not all woke people are
- 0:07practicing Satanists, but all practicing Satanists are woke. So I guess if you
- 0:13want to be a Satanist, you've got to be woke, and I mean
- 0:17all the way woke. Here's the headline, Satanists condemned leader demand he reaffirm
- 0:23transrites after taking photo with anti woke atheist. Yeah, and that's a real
- 0:31headline. So I guess the point that the Satanists are trying to make here
- 0:34is that if you don't affirm trans writes enough, satan doesn't like you.
- 0:42So yeah, says here that the Satanic spokesman said he didn't realize necessarily how
- 0:49oppressive progressive culture was. And I guess, you know, ignorance is bliss.
- 0:55Hey, he's just living his life like any other Satanist, being obnoxious
- 1:00and doing gross things. And next thing you know, am everybody screaming at
- 1:04you that you're not left wing enough to be a Satanist. And might I
- 1:10just say this is terrible branding. Let's see. The Satanic Temple's foremost spokesman
- 1:17has reportedly faced internal backlash after he posted a photograph with an atheist activist who
- 1:23condemned crazy woke shit among LGBTQ plus activism. And see here's a tweet here
- 1:32from David Silverman. Now, he used to be a fairly well known atheist
- 1:36advocate, and at full disclosure here, I used to be one of those
- 1:41annoying, you know, militant atheists. And thankfully, eventually I kind of
- 1:46woke up out of that and said, what the hell do I know?
- 1:49And now I've just settled into agnosticism, which seems to suit me a lot
- 1:53better because I will say, I don't know what the hell is out there,
- 1:57you know. And also I just know that the people who seem to
- 2:01really hate the Christians seem to be a lot worse than the Christians. And
- 2:08you know, another thing, like I said, I'm not religious myself,
- 2:13but it seems a little creepy messing with this whole Satanism thing. It's like,
- 2:17okay, like I don't believe in ghosts, but I'm still afraid of
- 2:22them. I'm just saying, maybe you're pushing your luck. But anyway,
- 2:28here's David Silverman. Now, yeah, he was quite well known. And
- 2:31then he got me too to a few years ago and he said, thanks
- 2:36to my friend Lucian Grieves and that's the leader of the Satanic Temple for a
- 2:40great tour for me and Chris blah blah Satanic Temple. Great to see you
- 2:46again and thanks as always for your activism. So there they are in front
- 2:51of a Satan thing. And the thing about the thing about the Satanist is
- 2:55that none of them are actually Satan. They're all atheists. Okay, none
- 2:59of them believe Satan. They're just doing it to be annoying. That's it.
- 3:02The whole thing is just an act. Let's see. And I guess
- 3:06there was an article from the Atlantic and in that it said in the small
- 3:10world of radical atheist activism. The image was instantly divisive. Silvermen had been
- 3:17pushed out of American atheists. Several years earlier, I made accusations of sexual
- 3:23misconduct, which he denied, and he had drawn criticism more recently for arguing
- 3:28that it wasn't transphobic to say, in reference to transgender rights, quote live
- 3:32your life as you see fit, but stay out of women's showers and don't
- 3:37groom kids. See that just seems like a perfectly normal, reasonable thing to
- 3:43say. Now, on the David Silverman Twitter page. Here it says X
- 3:46left X woke but still left of center. So you know, X left
- 3:52X woke. Apparently that doesn't go over well with Satanists. You know again,
- 3:55I wonder about the branding here, I wonder about that. Let's see.
- 4:00Greeves reportedly dismissed the backlash and downplayed his relationship with Silverman, arguing he
- 4:05could not vet every person who wanted a photo taken with him. Well,
- 4:11David Silverman seems to think that they're friends. Thanks to my friend Lucien Greeves.
- 4:15Great to see you again and thanks as always. So it kind of
- 4:19seems like the Satanist threw his friend under the bus immediately. And I mean,
- 4:25if somebody tells you they're a Satanist them, well, buyer beware.
- 4:30I guess. Let's see. The article observed that some Satanists voted to splinter
- 4:34off entirely from the not woke enough Satanists such as the such as a such
- 4:45as a sobriety orientated Satanist group. Okay, they just lost all their credibility
- 4:53right there. I mean, what kind of Satanist group doesn't get hammered at
- 4:56there? Whatever they do their ceremonies probably includes fucking goats. So there you
- 5:02have it. Dysfunction amongst the Satanists. I mean, I have to say,
- 5:05it just seems like an awful lot of drama. It's even worse than
- 5:10BLM. Anyway, That's all I gotta say about that. Please subscribe,
- 5:14like and share sharing. It really helps me out. I thank you for
- 5:15that. I will see you next time.
