Speaking of satanic panic, the biggest irony are those that denounce stuff like the Diablo or Doom series. You know, games were the player’s job is to literally destroy the forces of actual hell. Maybe killing demons with swords and shotguns is sinful?
Someone religious once told me that’s because the games/media are like “saying that this demons exists” and by doing that give them power or something like that, didn’t pay much attention after the first bullshit.
