Satanists are annoying but only to shitheads because they remind the christofascists of the logical consequences of their actions/rules.
What?

He could not be more divorced from the modern satanic temple which has essentially absolutely nothing to do with religion/worship/woowoo of any kind and only uses the religion label to leverage the same kind of loopholes that are baked in to society to benefit christian nationalism. They support atheism and science and just try to be as annoying and obstructive to organized religion in government as possible.

LaVey got his shtick from Ayn Rand, and his Satanism was basically opposition to the hippie peace-and-love stuff. Nowadays, its attitude is indistinguishable from mainstream Republican Christianity.
The Satanic Temple were (AFAIK) a prank/art project based around the thought experiment of “if Christianity is about cruelty and domination, what if Satanism was about niceness?” The people running it are allegedly somewhat problematic, though its existence did spawn a raft of sincere Satanic-themed social-justice movements like the Global Order of Satan.

He played a mean calliope, but that’s the nicest thing I can think to say of him.

I knew a Greg once in grade school and junior high… When I met them again in adult life they were a lady but remembered me. I give her kindness but it’s still weird running into someone like that at work who knows you but you don’t recognize them (for obvious reasons)

I hated Greg. He always insists upon himself.

The only Greg I ever knew lived in Ohio and we all know about Ohio.

This one might not because it might be possible to reject its installation on that ground.
The Satanic Temple uses it to get Christian statues removed by saying “oh you have a Christian statue so in order to not discriminate based on religion, you need to install ours too”
I can imagine that the US is so prude that boobs might prevent that from working
