I was asking how my description was different from Laveyan Satanism, which is what I was talking about.

And Laveyan Satanism does not define satanism as a whole, which is why you are an ethnocentric bastard because you are exclusively familiar with what your own culture offers and that's a bad thing I guess.

this is part of why the joke is delicious

Yeah but nobody knows what that **** is aside from Satanists, some college kids, and internet weirdos. Not much of a joke if there's nobody around to hear it.

Yeah but your average person doesn't even know it's a thing or who Anton LaVey even is, so it's not so much going over their heads as it's in a dank basement ten miles away telling jokes to itself in the dark.

I would think that when [most] people subscribe to Satanism [unless they actually LIKE human sacrifices and shit like that], the ideals that they are ACTUALLY after would more closely resemble Luciferianism.

regardless of the values of Lavey's church (most of which actually align with Christian beliefs, just like, you know, without the god) the name in itself is just silly.

To be fair, as ridiculous as it is, it's decidedly less ridiculous than pretty much every major religion.

Satanism is just diet Thelema. It was literally just a religion created to piss off and shock Christians before Lavey half assedly plagiarized Crowley to make it what it is today.
