The Church of Satan spends hundreds of posts denying that self-described Satanist terrorists who decorate their rooms with pentagrams and tapestries of baphomet are, in fact, Satanist

Context

The Church of Satan is a cringe Satanist LARPer group founded in the late '60s by Anton Lavey in California. The Order of Nine Angles is a cringe Satanist LARPer group founded in the United Kingdom. The difference is that the former group just fatly protests restriction on abortion or whatever, while the latter has committed a few dozen murders, a few church burnings and mosque bombings, and loads and loads of child molestation. Given that "Satanism" isn't a real religion, it's up for debate which one of these groups is a more legitimate interpretation

764 is a decentralized offshoot of O9A that mainly focuses on grooming children on sites like Groomercord, Telegram, and WatchPeopleDie, and then blackmailing them into self-harm and suicide. They also occasionally venture into old fashioned terrorism; both the Antioch and Abundant Life school shooters were associated with 764.
