A few days ago I read an article about “the satanic panic”. Now, this article came from a mainstream perspective mainly just talking about how many conservative candidates in the state of Missouri have been believing “baseless accusations” and “conspiracy theories” over the last several years. One of these is that satanic ritual abuse is systematic and crawls through governments, religions, and even Hollywood.
I totally disliked this article because it didn’t go into any actual details or showed any examples of how these “conspiracy theories” were debunked. They showed a few instances of SRA(satanic ritual abuse) and then told you how crazy it was. If you want to read this article you can find that here, although it’s not an article that’s worthwhile.
During my read of this article, I did however find them talking about an article published back in the 90s by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch about hundreds of reports of satanic ritual abuse, satanic worship, ritual abuse encompassing torture, molestation, and forced cannibalism. Sound familiar?
