Fun tidbit about satanists and gender fluidity thanks to Grok:
The connections between Baphomet and modern gender ideology primarily stem from Baphomet’s historical and symbolic associations with duality, balance, and the integration of opposites, including masculine and feminine elements. These themes have been interpreted by some contemporary groups and scholars as resonating with concepts of gender fluidity, nonbinary identity, and transgender experiences. Baphomet, particularly as depicted by Éliphas Lévi in 1856, is a hermaphroditic figure combining male and female characteristics, symbolizing the unity of opposites. This duality—often represented by features like breasts, a phallic caduceus, or one arm pointing up (masculine) and one down (feminine)—has been interpreted as embodying gender nonconformity or fluidity. Some modern interpretations see Baphomet as a symbol of transcending rigid gender norms, aligning with contemporary gender ideology’s emphasis on nonbinary and transgender identities.
Adoption by LGBTQ+ Communities: Baphomet’s imagery has been embraced by some within the LGBTQ+ community, particularly in alternative spiritual and occult circles, as a symbol of resilience, self-acceptance, and resistance to societal norms. The figure’s rejection of binary gender constructs resonates with those exploring or affirming nontraditional gender identities. For example, The Satanic Temple’s Baphomet statue, unveiled in 2015, has been used to challenge normative religious and social structures, indirectly supporting broader acceptance of diverse identities.
Modern Occult and Cultural Interpretations: In modern occultism, Baphomet is often seen as a figure of balance, encouraging the integration of both masculine and feminine energies within individuals, regardless of biological sex. This aligns with gender ideology’s focus on self-expression and personal identity over societal expectations. Some sources highlight Baphomet as a guide for personal transformation, encouraging exploration beyond traditional gender roles.
The Satanic Temple’s Approach: The Satanic Temple, which uses Baphomet as a symbol of rational inquiry and resistance to dogma, has explicitly avoided emphasizing the figure’s gender elements to focus on broader messages of individual sovereignty. However, their statue, which includes a boy and girl looking up to Baphomet, reflects a nod to the “male-female dualism” in Lévi’s original design, subtly acknowledging gender inclusivity without making it the central focus.
They all belong in an industrial shredder.
Reminds me of the neurodivergent perpetual sad-sack on Preddit that had over two thousand alts.
He kept posting the same "poor me, I'm not popular" stories to college, career advice and greek (fraternity/sorority) subreddits which people started clueing into and calling him out on it. He'd get banned or delete the account and start the cycle over and over.
It was a good example of why retards shouldn't be allowed to have internet access.
Yep, Lutheran Social Services in MN played a HUGE role in turning it into Minnesomalia. They facilitated the importation of tons of Somali shitholers as refugees, they were doing it 30+ years ago thinking the Afri-joggers would all show gratitude by becoming obedient jeebuz worshippers. Spoiler: they didn't.
The beer can thing was a gag not an actual attack. Or are you one of the retards who thinks wrasslin is real? And the wrestler apologized to the dindu after he found out he wasn't another wrestler at the event. And the innocent youf attacked the wrestler hours after the beer can thing, showing if anything it was a premediated assault on the stunning and brave jogger's part.
The "young man" is a psychotically violent thug.
I've noticed that Youtube has been chewing up more CPU cycles on the same hardware recently than it used to. I wonder if Youtube is doing some fucky-wucky client-side shit to try and make videos still look good while reducing the bitrate and bandwidth cost on their end?
(((Noticing))) is problematic, you BIGOTS!
