Christians obsessed with Satan are too lazy to even know you exist and the media, if they know you even exist, is going to deem you unserious weirdos and not even acknowledge your existence for fear of seeming unserious themselves by talking about you.

The whole project seems doomed to never get any attention for no gain for adding things onto secular humanist ideals. Also there's too many annoying, edgy libertarians who latch onto the more LaVeyan strain of Satanism, which as far as I remember sounds kind of like edgy Objectivism. The Satanic Temple at least sounds better than LaVeyan Satanism.

Wasn't Anton Lavey a cartoon character in the flesh?
