this is the innovation I've been looking for.

Worth noting: Satanism as a self-identified philosophy has only existed for about 80 years—but LGBTQ+ folks didn’t have it easier before that. In fact, we’ve gained more rights since then. Maybe having allies willing to stand proudly in the face of stigma isn’t such a bad thing.

I hear your concern. But queer folks have been demonized regardless of who supports us. The point isn’t to make haters comfortable, it’s to stop letting them define us. Symbols of rebellion can be a shield, not sabotage. Hope you stay curious.

and people derided those they opposed as Satanists, devil worshippers, and witches without anyone claiming that title. at least now someone is in that space to push back. hope that helps have a great weekend :)

I appreciate that you're not judging. For many, Satanism isn’t about evi, it’s reclaiming autonomy after religious trauma. It’s not sabotage it’s healing, resistance, and liberation. Pride is about being unapologetic. This is one way some of us do that. 🖤

also, the three headed cow is a famous minnesota icon, albeit with less heads haha. Its Babe the Blue Ox, but clearly some kind of Cerberus version. (pretty common reference in pop culture) light-hearted and fun, hope you find a way to also have fun and be happy.

"We champion the symbol of Lucifer as representing revolt against arbitrary authority and oppression, advocacy for the pursuit of knowledge and reason, and sympathy with the scapegoat and the downtrodden."

Satanists support LGBTQ+ rights, personal autonomy, and self-expression. Sad to see people judge before knowing. The pentagram points are symbolism for the elements and spirit. Inversion means the physical world is above the spirit. carpe diem, live fully. At least hell is inclusive. find kindness

There’s nothing sexual about wanting safety and dignity. If you see harm where there is none, that says more about you than us.

May you find kindness and understanding in your life.

Not satire. just queer folks being fabulous and free. Sometimes, joy looks surreal when you're not used to seeing it celebrated so loudly.

It might look warm and fuzzy because, for many of us, it is. Pride is about community, care, and being seen as human. There’s nothing evil in that—just people celebrating who they are, together.

Pride is about love, dignity, and the right to exist safely as who we are. Equating that with harm is not just wrong it’s a deep injustice to countless people who simply want to live openly and authentically.

I hope you find joy in your life instead of casting gross aspersions against strangers.

This image is about love, support, and community. The Minnesota Satanists stand for compassion, equality, and freedom. Values that resonate deeply with Pride. I hope you find that cherish that same love, support, and compassion ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

nice!
