Cate Blanchett named son after convicted child sex offender Roman Polanski | news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site
https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-life/cate-blanchett-named-son-after-convicted-child-sex-offender-roman-polanski/news-story/7643a75ab10a08d35b781b1f07043c59#:~:text=Blanchett%20said%20Roman%20was%20named,famous%20American%20novelist)%20Dashiell%20Hammett.
https://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/98319492.html
Blanchett said Roman was named after the disgraced director, who fled the United States in 1978 before he was due to be sentenced for having unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor.
“You run out of ideas by the time you get to number three,” she joked.
“Dashiell came from (famous American novelist) Dashiell Hammett.
“Roman, I don’t know... Polanski. But it’s also the French word for book.”
Polanski has been living in exile in France since 1978, despite multiple attempts by the United States to extradite him.
Blanchett previously came under fire in 2014 after starring in Woody Allen’s film Blue Jasmine.
Allen’s daughter Dylan Farrow wrote an open letter to Blanchett, criticising her for working with the director despite her claims of child sexual abuse.

“What if it had been your child, Cate Blanchett? Louis CK? Alec Baldwin? What if it had been you, Emma Stone? Or you, Scarlett Johansson? You knew me when I was a little girl, Diane Keaton. Have you forgotten me?” she wrote.
In response, Blanchett said it had “obviously been a long and painful situation for the family and I hope they find some resolution and peace”.

Ignatius, Captain Underpants
"According to the American Library Association, the Captain Underpants books were reported as some of the most banned and challenged books in the United States between 2000 and 2009 as well as between 2010 and 2019. The books were named one of the top ten most banned and challenged books in 2002, 2004, 2005, 2012, 2013 and 2018.
The Captain Underpants series was explicitly banned in some schools for "insensitivity, offensive language, encouraging disruptive behavior, LGBTQIA+ issues, violence, being unsuited to the age group, sexually explicit content, anti-family content, as well as encouraging children to disobey authority."
Dashiell Hammett....
Hammett devoted much of his life to left-wing activism. He was a strong antifascist throughout the 1930s, and in 1937 joined the Communist Party. On May 1, 1935, Hammett joined the League of American Writers (1935–1943), whose members included Lillian Hellman, Alexander Trachtenberg of International Publishers, Frank Folsom, Louis Untermeyer, I. F. Stone, Myra Page, Millen Brand, Clifford Odets, and Arthur Miller. (Members were largely either Communist Party members or fellow travelers. He suspended his anti-fascist activities when, as a member (and in 1941 president) of the League of American Writers, he served on its Keep America Out of War Committee in January 1940 during the period of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Especially in Red Harvest, literary scholars have seen a Marxist critique of the social system. One Hammett biographer, Richard Layman, calls such interpretations "imaginative", but he nonetheless objects to them, since, among other reasons, no "masses of politically dispossessed people" are in this novel. Herbert Ruhm found that contemporary left-wing media already viewed Hammett's writing with skepticism, "perhaps because his work suggests no solution: no mass-action... no individual salvation... no Emersonian reconciliation and transcendence".
In a letter of November 25, 1937, to his daughter Mary, Hammett referred to himself and others as "we reds". He confirmed, "in a democracy all men are supposed to have an equal say in their government", but added that "their equality need not go beyond that." He also found, "under socialism there is not necessarily... any leveling of incomes."
Hellman wrote that Hammett was "most certainly" a Marxist, though a "very critical Marxist" who was "often contemptuous of the Soviet Union" and "bitingly sharp about the American Communist Party", to which he was nevertheless loyal.
At the beginning of 1942, he wrote the screenplay of Watch on the Rhine, based on Hellman's successful play, which received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay). But that year the Oscar went to Casablanca. In early 1942, following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Hammett again enlisted in the United States Army. Because he was 48 years old, had tuberculosis, and was a Communist, Hammett later stated he had "a hell of a time" being inducted into the Army. However, biographer Diane Johnson suggests that confusion over Hammett's forename was the reason he was able to re-enlist. He served as an enlisted man in the Aleutian Islands and initially worked on cryptanalysis on the island of Umnak. For fear of his radical tendencies, he was transferred to the Headquarters Company where he edited an Army newspaper entitled The Adakian. In 1943, while still a member of the military, he co-authored The Battle of the Aleutians with Cpl. Robert Colodny, under the direction of an infantry intelligence officer, Major Henry W. Hall. While in the Aleutians, he developed emphysema.
After the war, Hammett returned to political activism, "but he played that role with less fervour than before". He was elected president of the Civil Rights Congress (CRC) on June 5, 1946, at a meeting held at the Hotel Diplomat in New York City, and "devoted the largest portion of his working time to CRC activities".
In 1946, a bail fund was created by the CRC "to be used at the discretion of three trustees to gain the release of defendants arrested for political reasons." The trustees were Hammett, who was chairman, Robert W. Dunn, and Frederick Vanderbilt Field.
The CRC was designated a Communist front group by the US Attorney General. Hammett endorsed Henry A. Wallace in the 1948 United States presidential election..."


'Blanchett and Stewart joined fellow Cannes jury members, Ava DuVernay, Khadja Nin, and Léa Seydoux, in the South of France for the start of this year's festival earlier this week. Not only did we see both Blanchett and Stewart donning spring-inspired pantsuits we now need in our lives, but we were, more importantly, blessed with photos of Stewart staring tenderly at Blanchett. What a time to be alive."

The Only Thing Worse Than Religions of the World With Their Dead god or gods and idols and or living personification presidents, representatives and leaders, Sanctimonious Dogmas & Doctrines, Dress Codes and Rules, Rituals & Righteous Rights Are Cults and Paganisms like Jehovah’s Witnesses, Scientologists, Latter Day (Satan’s) Saints or Mormons, Moonies or Unification Cults and Creeds, Humanists, Evolutionists PETAs; and The Only Thing Worse Than Cults are The Occults like Satanists, Spell-castors, Fortune Tellers, Psychics & Divination or Diviners, Witches & Warlocks, Wiccans, Clairvoyants, Spiritualists, Sorcerers, Mediums, Magicians & Mystics, Masons, Eastern Stars, Sororities, Fraternities, and other Secular Secret Societies and Sects…and Halloween is the Day or Night they twisted and possessed from its Christian roots (Hallow, from it 2,000 years old Celtic and Christian roots, meaning Holy as the Holy Eve before Hallows Day or All Saints Day; kinda like Christmas Eve to Christmas Day or New Years Eve to New Years Day) to celebrate their beliefs, faiths, bonfires, costumes, drinking (or worse junk) and dancing and seances. 🤷♂️ and Don’t let it be a full moon 🌕 too 🐺 🤣🤣🤣

A few of my moots are talking about religion and I have so many big opinions about religion that I would probably only cause drama by talking bout them 😭 it's too nuanced to just write out in a single post, I have books worth reasons I hate religion and even more on how it's all front for cultural grooming
I've had too much experience with cults that all organized religion looks the exact same and all the same patterns form - Mormons, FLDS, JWs, Catholics, Mega Church Christians, and Scientology are all the same grift in diffrent fonts
I've had too much experience with far-right idiots using God's name in vein to promote hate and violence that even individualized religion is starting to look like the mass cultural grooming the Christians did in the 80's for the Satanic Panic
And somehow, I still can't bring myself to hate religious and spiritual people at all, programs like Alcoholics Anonymous are decently successful and I've sat in on meeting before and I think the stories people tell about finding a higher power (sometimes it's god, a pet, a parent, or a partner - it's anything that makes you want to change) are beautiful, and honestly were a huge influence on how I veiw God now, I'm still an agnostic/aethist but sometimes I pray to just whatever might or might not be out there just for my own sake, sometimes I call it Jesus and God and other times it's the Ghost poster on my wall or it's my cats or dog - I have my personal higher power and that's kinda just it

WeirDelhpi!
Scientology is an allowance of faith-based practices, invented by American creator L. Ron Hubbard. It has been differently characterized as a cult, a business or new religious movement. There have been various conspiracies and claims made about scientology and it has been the center of critique for a long time.
Delphi school - one of the institutes affiliated with scientology, falls under the purview of a religious faction, Nohki. Nohki encompasses a set of principles that are deemed to be far from moral and ethical. The school has very odd teaching methods and correction methods that are not ethical in any sense. It consists of an ‘Ethics Room’ and ‘Isolation Room’ for pupils who have done wrong. Other methods of punishment like various forms of physical torment, like being struck by a rod for failing to finish work have also been reported by previous students. The school adopts the very scandalous teachings of Scientology as a religion and the faction Nokhi in particular.
Additionally, the school also has several bizarre drills as a part of their curriculum. One example of the given drill was to perform a task in which students were required to sit still for two hours and stare at each other. Another drill entailed repeating a word over and over until it's meaning registered. The method of evaluation used by Delphi School has also been criticized for being a poor measure of education. Furthermore, students are trained under a strict disciplinary system based on peer monitoring. In other words, they are required to expose every wrongdoing witnessed so that the accused may receive a painful punishment. “It was a fear-oriented student life”, one student reported, while another spoke on the mind- controlling tactics taught by the staff, who were all largely Scientologists themselves. Most students that leave Delphi School have little job prospects in any field. What makes the school disputable is its affiliation with the controversy on how the minds of young children are molded to think in a forceful manner.
Apart from all this, the school has an unreasonable high fee rate of USD 42000 even though the only staff present are the teachers. The cleaning, cooking and general maintenance of the school is done by their pupils itself and there is little informationabout what the exorbitant fees are being used for. Ultimately, The Delphian has garnered a negative image with some even calling it a ‘Satanic School’ as it is unbearably strict, and
impossible to succeed in.
Task at Hand:
You are a Board of Director of Delphi School and have decided to expand to India, a country where there is maximum diversity and friction between different cultures. This
makes setting up a school with such principles a challenge. Furthermore, the high fees of
30 Lakhs p.a. charged by your school acts as a deterrent to students applying.
Deliverables:
Devise strategies for handling legalities and setting up this affiliated school in India in any state and city of your choice with proper justification.
Create marketing strategies to gain visibility and improve the public image of the school without changing the fundamental beliefs and principles of the institution.
PR strategies to address the allegations of imposing physical and mental trauma on students to convince Indian parents to send their children to Delphi School.
Provide details on the allocation of your finances including:
a. Break-Even Analysis
b. ROI (Return on Investment)
c. Sources of Funds
d. Detailed Cost Breakdown to justify the unreasonably high fees.

"does this include [insert religion]?"
no because christianity and atheism are the only two real religions that go out of their way to proselytize and convert others.
atheists who make being atheist their entire personality are just as annoying as christians who make being christian their entire personality.
#dostxt#I say real religion because satanism is made up to attempt to abuse religious freedom laws#and scientology is a cult ruled by rich business douchebags

I feel like a lot of people who ship Johnlock have it as like. Their 'blueprint' ship. Like sure, they ship other things, but Johnlock was their earliest, most fervent love, and now they see them everywhere. And meanwhile like, obviously Johnlock was my second real ship, and they are very much dear to me, and I do see them everywhere, but my blueprint ship is just something else. Something worse, in a way? There was this one french YouTube comedy series, in the 2010's, about two friends. One is such a people pleaser, he never says no, so the other decides to give him a Balls Therapy™, to get him some Balls™ so he can get his girl back. And like, dude, I shipped them SO HARD. And obviously, it wasn't AS queerbaity as BBC Johnlock, first off cause BBC raised the bar HIGH in that area, and second because they ACTUALLY BECAME CANON??? Like???
This is genuinely so absurd. This was borderline a crack ship, how tf did this happen. One of the main plot points of the last season is about a freaking Scientology inspired cult, except the aliens are kinda real, and finding a ghost of a Panty-less bride??! The second season is about selling your rights to SATAN editions, and selling cup and balls?? One character invents "hardcore musette", or a mix of accordion and heavy metal??? It's SUCH an absurd ass thing, but they took their gay love story seriously?? Before kissing him, Balls Therapy™ guy yells at People Pleaser™ guy "what are you afraid of??" And they kiss in the leaves, in the forest??? And the Balls™ guy's girlfriend is like, strongly implied to be aroace??? Like WHAT????
But like, at the end of the day, they're just... Surprisingly similar to Johnlock, and I kinda wanna write a crossover comic about them.

when I talk abt my spirituality and self conception, ppl seem to want to gather around me or follow me when it clicks for them, it's hard to be ok with that when you just get called a cult leader for fostering spirituality and self love in those around you. personally I try to just think of it more like just a system of worship for an isolated spiritual group, like the greco-roman mysteries and other ancient cults, doesn't really help when you know they mean it like scientology and evangelical christianity and all those cults of personality. I don't really talk abt any of it anymore tho cuz of it.
p.s. fuck the greeks and romans, all the cool mysteries started out non greco-roman and slowly assimilated
yeah, it's a known phenomena forever that western culture has been kinda brainwormed by cults popped up especially in the late 20th century and also like, satanic panic & other reactionary forces spawned from them and also christian forces etc. and also how these are applied especially towards online trans women, there's a reason cultjacketing is a term
it does not get particularly upset about people doing it, but it does wish its girlfriend could live in peace from the millionth online harasser targeting trans women online with their personal excuse to view them as a force of evil. it thinks having to practice personal security and general distance/paranoia about people when you are literally just playing and practicing spirituality with yourself kinda sucks and no one should have to do it
or that people were able to comprehend existing together as beings who talk about shit didnt mean someone was Coerced into whatever they can imagine. literally like, sharing little beliefs and drawing eachother's little pictures on things and the interactivity of it all is literal kindergarten playground behavior, but because adults are doing it, it must be some sort of wicked force
also it thinks the greco-roman stuff was fine, the imperialist and colonialist forces obviously is not what it's talking about but the approaches to spirituality were like, fine it thinks. it special interested on roman legion structure when it was much younger and thus learned about some of the more niche cults, and while like the cult of mithras and stuff was originally very not roman, it thinks the way these smaller cults etc were practiced was very genuine, and in some cases literally the only practice of it left over time.. there's obviously more nuance to it but it doesn't entirely get the hate for roman and greek polytheism, it was a slightly bastardized practice for the main deities but it was still genuine for those who lived and practiced it
#it would be slightly unsurprised if this recent bout had anything to do with the popular mlp blogger who left a reply#about sy running a 'cult' and then deleted it immediately but then she got asks about being a vile cultist etc right after

The John Wick films are falling out of popularity, so they're going to use an Indian actor, to get some international flavor and continue pushing Ammosexual Films. I thought Jordan Peele did Horror, or did interest in that dry up, too?

Paramount bidder Byron Allen has long history of failed media bids
Byron Allen, offering $14 billion for Paramount, has a long history of media bids that haven't materialized
PUBLISHED WED, JAN 31 2024 3:23 PM EST
UPDATED WED, JAN 31 2024 4:38 PM EST

@RYAN_ANASTASIO
Byron Allen, the media mogul offering $14 billion for Paramount Global, told CNBC on Wednesday that he has the money to finance a deal.
Allen has a long history of making offers on major media assets, but few of his bids have resulted in sales.
His bids for linear TV assets come as the media landscape shifts away from traditional TV toward streaming.

"We have more than enough capital available to us. The real challenge is certainty of close," Allen said.
"This deal lives or dies at the [Federal Communications Commission]," he added.
Allen, the founder and CEO of a media group that owns dozens of television networks across the U.S., offered $30 billion for all of Paramount's outstanding shares, including debt and equity.
The Allen Media Group said in a statement the offer "is the best solution for all of the Paramount Global shareholders, and the bid should be taken seriously and pursued."
Allen has a long history of making offers on major media assets. But bidding doesn't mean buying.
His recent media buyout offers have failed to materialize into sales. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Allen last year offered $18.5 billion for Paramount, and was rejected.
Allen told CNBC he hasn't received a response from Paramount to his most recent offer.
Shari Redstone, who controls Paramount through her company National Amusements, has been open to deal-making in recent months in an effort to either merge or sell the company that's home to brands such as CBS, Showtime, Nickelodeon and its namesake movie studio.
CNBC reported last week that David Ellison's Skydance Media and its backers were exploring a deal to take Paramount Pictures or the entire media company private.
In December, CNBC also reported Paramount had entered preliminary talks with Warner Bros. Discovery to merge the two media giants in a deal that could have faced regulatory hurdles.
Allen's bid for Paramount is the most ambitious of the deals the media mogul has tried to complete. Here are some of his recent deal attempts:
In December, Allen renewed an attempt to buy Paramount-owned Black Entertainment Television and VH1 for a combined $3.5 billion.
In November, Bloomberg reported, he was weighing a bid to buy television stations from E.W. Scripps.
In September, Allen made an offer to buy ABC and several other networks from Disney for $10 billion after Disney CEO Bob Iger opened the door to selling the company's linear TV assets.
In 2022, he explored a bid to buy the National Football League's Washington Commanders.
In March 2020, he offered $8.5 billion to buy television stations owner Tegna.
Allen told CNBC via phone Wednesday that he lost out on several deals because ownership changed course on wanting to sell. He highlighted his acquisition of The Weather Channel in 2018 for a reported $300 million and broadly defended his track record, invoking baseball Hall of Famer Babe Ruth.
"Let's talk about Babe Ruth. Does he go down as one of the greatest baseball players of all time? And he struck out half the time," Allen said. In actuality, Ruth struck out 1,300 times in 8,399 at bats — a 15% strikeout rate.
Allen's bids for linear TV assets come as the media landscape shifts away from traditional TV toward streaming. Almost all the major media companies have launched services to compete with streaming giant Netflix.
Paramount reported in its third-quarter earnings report that its streaming platform, Paramount+, increased its subscriber count to 63 million. However, Paramount's direct-to-consumer products have failed to turn a profit like Netflix has. The division reported adjusted losses of $238 million for the third quarter.
Paramount will release its fourth-quarter earnings Feb. 28.
Allen told CNBC he wants to buy Paramount for its linear networks, what he says is the most challenging part of the company.
"These are still great businesses if you know how to manage them properly," Allen said.
Shares of Paramount were up almost 7% Wednesday and have risen more than 35% in the past three months as talks of a deal have ramped up. However, the stock is more than 40% off its 52-week high of $25.93 a share reached in February 2023.
— CNBC's Alex Sherman and Julia Boorstin contributed to this report.

Some of my favorite unhinged old songs that were actually hits:
"Timothy" by the Buoys, went to #17 in the US and #9 in Canada, is about miners who resort to cannibalism when trapped underground. (Todd in the Shadows made a video about this song and band and it's one of his funniest ever, you ABSOLUTELY must see it if you haven't)
youtube
"Joe's Garage" by Frank Zappa-an incredibly BIZARRE album (that got to the top 30 on Billboard) about a guy named Joe who gets dumped by his girlfriend, joins a parody of Scientology whose members have sex with robots, accidentally kills his robot by "plooking" it too hard, and...honestly so much weird shit happens I can't list it all here. (Unfortunately, the album cover has Zappa in blackface, so just be warned of that. I know, gross.) Here's the part of the album when Joe gets an STD.
youtube
"Flushed From the Bathroom of Your Heart" by Johnny Cash-yes, the great Cash actually recorded a song with a toilet metaphor. And it's on At Folsom Prison, one of his most popular albums (top 10 in Norway and UK, #13 in US, #1 on US country chart).
youtube
"Autobahn" by Kraftwerk-an OVER 20 MINUTE SONG about how awesome it is to drive on German roads. Sure, the 70s had lots of car songs, but one about a specific road system that's, I repeat, OVER 20 MINUTES?! Went to the Top 10 of 2 countries, Top 20 of 7 others, and #25 in the US.
youtube
"The Devil Went Down to Georgia" by Charlie Daniels-this one you probably know. Satan challenges a random kid to a fiddle-playin' contest and quickly regrets it.
youtube
"Hotel California" by the Eagles-Another one everyone knows. How many #1 songs (that's where this peaked in the US and Canada) are about eldritch locations? Whether you interpret it literally, as a "music industry bad" song with a weird metaphor, or an allegory for the Manson Family cult, the last line remains chilling.
youtube
"I Don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats-basically "Pumped Up Kicks" but 40 years before. It's about a real-life school shooting where the shooter claimed she did it because she hates Mondays. This one's obviously a lot darker than all the others I've listed, but it's still a subject that mainstream pop groups of today probably wouldn't touch (side note, apparently "Pumped Up Kicks" came out a decade ago?!)
youtube
"Junk Food Junkie" by Larry Groce. It's about a guy who really loves Twinkies. Pretty simple yet fun premise. Went to #9 in the US.
youtube
"They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haa!" by Napoleon XIV-a man goes insane after his dog runs away. Features the creepiest chorus of a mainstream hit, like, "this guy could've played the Joker" type creepy. The B-side of this song was just the original played backwards. Still reached the top 5 in Australia, the Uk, Canada, and the US.
youtube
Finally, "Ben" by Michael Jackson. You may know this song, but not the story behind it. It's not a love song, at least not for a human; Ben is the killer rat in the horror movie also called Ben (which is a sequel to Willard, about a guy who has an army of rats that kill for him, Ben being one of them). Remember, this was pre-Thriller-MJ was just out of the Jackson 5 at this point in time. Who thought to get a child star to sing a cute song for a scary movie? It's like if whoever Disney Channel's biggest star now (I haven't kept up with Disney in years idk who they're hyping now) wrote a song called "Annabelle", about how much they love this Annabelle chick, and it's only if you go see the movie that you'd know she's actually a creepy evil doll.
youtube
I could go on and on but I think I've added enough. (I tried to focus on lesser-known and forgotten ones, but I couldn't leave "Hotel California" out, it's so creepy)
In conclusion, Ye Olde pop hits were weeeiiird. And oh, how I wish today's pop hits were too. I'm begging for a current pop star, ANY current pop star, to give us an upbeat cannibal ballad this coming year.
Rock bands used to just write about whatever the fuck. Not to be all "old music was better!" but when's the last time the world's highest selling band released a song about killing people with hammers. The Who made an entire rock opera about a deaf, mute, and blind guy who is so good at pinball that he inspires a cultlike group of devotees who think he's the next christ. It was released at the peak of their popularity and was made into a movie featuring people like Elton John and Tina Turner.
I think classic rock gets a reputation for being all about girls and cars and drugs but for about 15-20 years there were absolutely no rules on acceptable song subject matter. Pink Floyd has a song about a gnome going on an adventure. Alice Cooper has a whole album about breaking out of the Ableist Insane Asylum because he misses his dog. These weren't weird little indie groups, these were all highly successful charting bands getting radio airplay and selling out stadiums.
We need to bring this culture back. No more love songs. Sing about wizards.

I tried to watch that fucking Son of Sam documentary on Netflix and eventually I had to quit because almost all the ‘evidence’ they had for the two other people they pinned for the SoS crimes were almost Exclusively satanic panic nonsense. And at No point did the doc seem interested in pointing out that NONE of the crimes people thought were happening during the satanic panic actually happened- seriously the satanic panic (at least at the time) resulted in the most expensive criminal investigation/ trials in US history and NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENED!!!! There’s wasn’t evidence of SHIT!! Not to mention every occult thing they used as evidence like… not only is it Wildly irresponsible not to mention the satanic panic and all the false accusations that led to ruined lives based on zero evidence, but interest in the occult was popular at the time of the shootings so Berkowitz (the Actual shooter) having a passing interest- in a time where neo paganism took off 20 years prior and neo religions/ spiritualisms were popular- isn’t fucking SHOCKING and is not, in fact, a reason to accuse people who didn’t confess to the crime at hand of being serial killers???!?
There actually were a couple interesting nuggets based in Actual reality that had me going 🤔🤔🤔 but the fact that satanic panic nonsense completely ripped from context and presented in a Deeply irresponsible way meant I had to stop watching, it pissed me off too much that whoever made this shit just wasn’t interested in context whatsoever and then created a doc that’s basically satanic panic 2.0 and people will fucking believe it because for some reason people think the devil will show up in a backwards hat if Jerry asks but Jesus won’t show up until the second fucking coming and this makes Perfect sense to Christians.
#winters ramblings#at one point this guy was explaining how satanists write stuff backwards to send messages#and I was like hey did you get this information from supposed SATANISTS or Christian satanist experts??#because I think based on my knowledge of the satanic panic you asked a Christian how another religion worked and took them to be an expert#which is hilarious and absurd and also!!! ALSO!!!!#READING SHIT IN A MIRROR BACKWARDS IS NOT EVIDENCE THAT SOMEONE WAS A SERIAL KILLER#HOLY FUCKING SHIT THEY JUST SAID THAT AND I WAS LIKE YOURE ACCUSING CARR OF SERIAL MURDER??!?#because you read shit BACKWARDS in a mirror???!?!??#you’ve GOT to be kidding me#supposedly he was a satanist but then they said he was in Scientology#and then I was like oh he was never involved with the OCCULT#he was involved with a regular cult and Christians don’t know the difference between other religions/ cults and satanism#this isn’t evidence of SHIT!!!! anyway that shit got me fired up so I had to quit#I just couldn’t fucking listen to this Christian mythology soaked MESS of an argument#anymore like there were a couple interesting threads to pull yes#but the fact that most of the evidence was literally Christian panic I’m sorry but your religion is NOT admissible evidence in court!!#or anywhere else lol I had to leave it alone I was so fucking annoyed like to not even mention#that the satanic panic led to ZERO credible accusations while presenting a satanic panic like argument#that’s beyond irresponsible that’s just unethical so I turned it off#their argument reminded me of those fucked up internet slugged that ruined that one guys life#after Elisa lam was found dead at the Cecil hotel- like point for fucking point I was like wow you sure do know what a pattern is#but a pattern needs an ACTUAL connection to the crime to be meaningful#if it just Exists like that then no I’m sorry you finding bizarre little coincidences isn’t evidence of anything#except that you think correlation and causation are the Same and that makes it Worse!!

i like this! soooo basically u mean….
lucifer: stereotypical cultists/satanists
mammon: the church of scientology/megachurches
levi: people who are fans of the occult/own a ouija board but have never used it and know everything there is to know about ghost stories/cryptids/spend time on horror subreddits
satan: people who believe in historic religions that are seen as occult but aren’t actually and are entertwined with culture and history. like faeworshippers/gaelic religions, egyptian pantheon worshippers, etc.
asmo: modern day witches/new age religions like the crystal/rock based one
beel: the top 1% who throw wild and crazy parties every weekend where only the richest are invited and they aren’t allowed to discuss what happens there but the answer is anything and everything you can think of
belphie: those weird methhead goth kids that claim to be satanists just because it’s edgy and have ‘cultist’ gatherings that are just hanging out at the local mall and buying shit from hot topic
diavolo: serious actual modern day satanists that do believe in satan, like the kind where if you know too much and squeal on them you disappear in an ‘accident’
barbatos: the illuminati/cults that just exist as a “conspiracy theory” until you find out they’re real
The MC Meeting the Brothers' (+Dia & Barbs) Cults
So like. Imagine the Brother's Fanclubs + Witchy Requests. That's this.
Contents: Satanic themes, demon stuff, witchy inspirations
~♡♡♡~
Lucifer
Lucifer's cults take this shit SERIOUSLY. They're not just fooling around with the occult, they live and breathe it.
I'm talking dark robes, goats heads, bonfires, animal blood, ritual dances- You know. The works.
Definitely the sort of occultists who gatekeep other occultists. They want the world to think of THEM, the followers of the mighty Lucifer, as THE quintessential demonic cult to model all others after. He (and by that they mean they) deserves no less.
Oh yes, they are a very prideful and obnoxious bunch... Completely void of self-awareness too. Try to point out how arrogant they're being and they'll call you crazy.
Lucifer openly despises most of them and possesses a quiet distain for the rest. He doesn't think they're nearly as competent and useful as they claim to be and would rather they simply butt out of his affairs.
He doesn't visit them much nor allow them to summon him unless it is a world-ending emergency (so never). A former past leader thought he was beyond those rules and paid for his hubris with his spine...
Lucifer will do all in his power to convince MC that his cult isn't even worth visiting. They'll annoy them to death... And even if they do go, the self-absorbed members won't exactly roll out the red carpet.
Just take down any names of the most irritating ones and Lucifer will take care of it. The dungeon rats could use some company.
Mammon
Mammon's cult kind of feels like a mix between a tech startup and Gambler's Anonymous at times. Money is the goal, babes. Everybody there is some kind of slave to the grind and they hustle like the goddamn NFL.
Funny enough, it usually isn't the already rich and successful who find themselves in Mammon's orbit, but those who are close to, if not in, poverty and looking to turn things around.... in less than stellar ways.
What I'm saying is, most are either casino regulars, scam artists, or buy into crypto.
That said, unlike most of his brothers, Mammon actually has a pretty deep soft spot for his followers. He puts on the "callous demon" act when he's brought out, but generally, he never cruel to them. He may even throw in an extra bit of help for free if he sees someone is struggling.
When they first met the MC, they really went out of their way to be sure MC was safe, pampered, and satisfied. This was Mammon's favorite human, after all! He talks about them constantly...
It's pretty humorous because most of them already know what kind of food MC likes, what their sense of style is, their favorite colors, and the like from just listening to Mammon's rambles. Or because he'll send one of them to fetch him some kind of present when he's visiting.
Admittedly, they're all kinda scummy and insufferable at times. But endearing in the same way Mammon can be so hanging out with them can still be a good time. MC just have to keep an eye on their wallet.
Leviathan
Levi's cult feels like a bunch of teens who read a creepypasta once, tested it out as a joke but found out it was all real. Thankfully, instead of being horrified, they were actually psyched!
They kind of take to devil worship with a DnD-like enthusiasm. They all have code names like, "Grimshadow" or "Evergloom," each owns a black cloak that they MUST wear to all meetings, and they all have incredibly embellished and extensive backstories for their "darkside" personas. Levi is very proud of their commitment to it all.
That being said, they do take to their found family, counterculture thing with a good dash of humor. They once all attended their local aquarium in full robes and linked hands around the jellyfish tank for shits and giggles.
Levi's followers rarely summon him, but he stays in regular contact with the group through chatrooms and messengers. They love to report on the fun "campaigns" they're building on or when they pull some kind of silly stunt to scare the normies.
When MC visits them, they've long since built up this prince/ss persona for them and treat them like the defacto second-in-command. (Partially because they know Levi would flip out if they upset MC in any way).
If MC enjoys a bit of LARPing, they're the most dedicated group they'll ever find! If they're not willing to play act royalty for a few hours...? Steer clear.
Satan
Satan has a ton of cults so they come in all shapes, sizes, and flavors. MC will certainly find one for them!
... The catch is that very few of them actually have a good idea of who Satan really is. It's pretty common to mistake him for Lucifer still, to the point that some cults use their names interchangeably, and THOSE cults better not try contact him personally.
If MC manages to uncover more updated following of Satan's, they'll feel like they walked into a "National Treasure"-style bookclub. These guys are looking for the secrets of the universe, never mind anything else.
Meeting with Satan's inner circle usually feature the search, collection, curation of old esoteric tomes or lost artifacts from the distant realms. The majority of the participants are scholars, academics, and the odd cooky conspiracy theorist who just happened to be right.
Also. Cats. Soooo many cats... The cultists are VERY aware of Satan's volatile temper, so they take pains to keep as many cats present as they can whenever they summon him. Their meeting house is just full of them...
Satan's cult gives MC the real VIP treatment because NO ONE wants to the one to tell the Avatar of Wrath that they disrespected his loved one... If MC were walking barefoot, they'd be laying pillows beneath their every step. The only things treated better are the clubhouse cats.
Asmodeus
Asmo's cult is basically one big family. Very enmeshed and a lot of history, but also soooo fascinating to be around.
If MC wanted to keep track of every person in Asmo's following, they would have to make a chart that could expand the length of an entire wall and, in some cases, go back generations if not centuries.
Followers of Asmo have historically ranged everywhere from sex workers to concubines and even members of the aristocracy looking increase their social capital. Being under his cult provided protection and refuge for the most derided of society, no matter orientation or background. A good portion of his modern following are actually members who've been grandfatherd in from parents or siblings who have joined.
And, of course, Asmo maintains a very close and personal relationship with almost all of them. He's always invited to attend baby showers, weddings, graduations, birthdays, what have you and he makes it to a good deal of them, even if only for a few minutes.
Because of its sheer size and unorthodox structure, Asmo's following almost seems like a "cult" in the loosest sense. They have rituals, spells, and meetings but it all looks SO much different than the others. Get-togthers among the adults are practically just parties and maybe you summon some succubi with goat's blood and glitter glue.
Asmo's cult can be kinda catty, but generally very supportive and they LOVE having MC around. Big gossips with a lot of questions. If they love a party, then they can't go wrong!
Beelzebub
Beel's cult takes self-indulgence to a whole new level. These guys LOVE their vices and find a little demonic touch is the best way to keep the indulgence going.
Belphegor
It's amazing that for such a sweet demon, his cult is some of the scummiest people on the planet. We're talking riding yachts on your mega-yacht levels of excess. "Too much of a good thing" taken to the extreme.
The thing is, as long as you have the money to feed Beel then he's really agreeable and kind. So wealthy assholes take advantage of his generosity all the time...
That said, don't feel too bad for Beel just yet because they ARE scumbags, but Beel is in charge and he has his limits.
One old billionaire kept summoning him during his fangol matches. The guy's maids found his nightrobe ripped to shreds and bite marks in the furniture.
Another one made a passing insult about Mammon and Beel came home to give his brother the lady's jewelry... after he washed them off, of course.
He discourages MC from meeting them even harder than Lucifer, and if they insist, he'll go with them and loom over their shoulder like a round-the-clock bodyguard. He doesn't need to tell his followers to treat MC nicely... he'll make them.
Absolutely those edgy kids who dress in all black and SAY that yeah, they've totally met Belphegor. But they really haven't, and it shows.
Remember, Belphie is on the blacklist so most witches who say they've met him are fucking liars. However, that doesn't stop novice covens searching for a little respect from claiming they're in good with the guy.
Since the group doesn't really know what Belphegor is about, they most just use their little club as an excuse to grief others and claim undue superiority. They pull a lot of pranks though, so they at least have some parts right.
Belphie has a vague awareness of their existence, but couldn't be bothered to contact them or set the record straight. What's it matter to him if a bunch of humans want to make a fool of themselves? He doesn't care that much about his reputation.
If MC were actually summon Belphegor themselves in front of them, the entire group would shit their pants immediately then cry and beg for forgiveness. Again, Belphie doesn't care, but he likes toying with fools so he'd play the part of the "Angry Master" long enough to make them run for their lives.
Needless to say, if MC wants there to be no Belphie-cult, no more Belphie cult there will be.
Diavolo
Actually a very small group since it's not super widespread that the Demon King is out of commission. But those who are there are a real who's-who of the witching world.
Dia doesn't actually interact with his cult very much, despite their combined influence, because he finds them very off-putting. Most of them are just "yes men" or social climbers wanting to get in good with royal bloodline, so he doesn't put much stock in what they do or say.
If he does contact them, it's for his "Bring Harmony" plans and they do come in handy as envoys in the human realm. He keeps the interactions brief though.
Several of his number have attempted to get into contact with MC before, but Solomon usually wards them off for much the same reason Dia does. They all just want something from them, so why let them bother his sweet little apprentice?
Those who slip through the cracks get shut down immediately by an impromptu visit from the friendly neighborhood sorcerer who seems to have some of charm in place for just such occasion. It's pretty confusing for MC to watch Solomon drag some big politican out of the house by the scruff of the neck, but it's probably better that they just don't ask and move on.
Barbatos
An even smaller group than Dia's and even more secretive. You basically have to be invited in by Barb's himself so a new member gets added every half century or so...
Nobody is quite sure what spurs Barbs to select someone into his cult... Maybe they make a good first impression when summoning him or he sees that they're important for the future? Sometimes, he'll even induct complete normal humans who weren't even witches to start with so it's anybody's guess.
Due to its small size and, frankly, years of even centuries worth of distance between members there's a lot less meetings and more just doing what Barbs says.
For instance, he may instruct a member to bury a particular message on a hill to then tell a different member to go find 60 years later... Or he'll have another member set into motion a chain of events that won't actually be felt for decades to come.
The cult members don't know about MC unless Barbs NEEDS them to know about MC. He keeps a lot in the dark. If they do, he takes pains to stress that he admires MC quite a bit and to not upset them...
When Barbatos tells you not to do something, you don't fucking do it, so they are VERY kind to MC. Just in that "I feel like there's a gun to my head"- kind of way...
#this is just as an occult enthusiast#not meant to be taken seriously nor to be a serious reflection of any religions in any way#just based on vibes not trying to make any statements or implications here#minus the church of scientology. fuck those guys.

understand the differences in cultic groups
The thing I wish the “it would be so great to live in a cult!” people understood is that “cult” can refer to very different things. These are not clearly-defined categories; they can change and overlap a lot. But some groups have more qualities of one than another.
A New Religious Movement is a group whose beliefs and practices differ significantly from established mainstream religions. These can be intensely varied and can range from fewer than a dozen followers to millions of adherents. They are not necessarily bad or harmful to their followers. NRMs of the 20th century include Wicca, Pentecostalism, the Church of Satan, Chaos Magic, and most types of neopaganism.
A commune or collective household is a group of people living together and sharing possessions and responsibilities. Although it can be tricky to make sure the rules work for everyone and everybody’s needs and feelings are accommodated, these can be positive communities that benefit all their members.
A Totalistic Movement is a group that uses abusive techniques to take control over its followers’ lives and pressures them into situations that are unsafe, harmful, or illegal. Literally anything can be a totalistic movement, from a book club to a workplace to a political party. Famous examples include Scientology, Aum Shinrikyo, and Heaven’s Gate.
Basically, you and your friends can form whatever religion you want and have a fabulous time. You can worship the moon or the Great Flying Spaghetti Monster or Satan. You can move into a dilapidated Victorian mansion and split up groceries, or grow your own food together on a farm. Fly! Be free!
But you’re safer and better off if you avoid groups that:
View their principles as absolute truths that cannot be deviated from
Discourage or even punish questioning, doubt, dissent, or noncompliance
Use feelings of guilt to control their members
Claim to have special, exalted access to the truth, which nobody from any other group can possibly have
View the rest of society with a polarized us-vs-them mentality, where only people inside the group can be trusted
Dictate a great deal of how its adherents should think, act, and feel, including but not limited to where they should live, how they should dress, what they should eat, what media they consume, and how to conduct their personal relationships
Deny or discourage its members from having access to outside help and support, including education, money the group does not have control over, and medical and mental health care
Believe that its leaders or members should be uniquely exempt from a lot of society’s ways for holding people accountable, or can’t be held to any set of external laws or standards
Discourage members from having relationships, interests, activities, or goals that aren’t related to the group
Check out the International Cultic Studies Association for more information on destructive group tendencies and how to spot warning flags for totalistic movements.
