Satan’s Upcoming Comeback
Salon or Slate or some such Internet site of renown published an article last Summer to the effect that, to a particular narrow age group Reagan’s Legacy was inspiring a whole slew of butt-kicking politically charged punk rock. I confess that my awareness of that sub-genre more or less begins and ends with The Dead Kennedys, but various other “hardcore” blasts run through my head when I think about it.
But I picture a fatigue that comes eventaully. Nixon is re-elected in 1972 to a resounding landslide. The politically charged music that permeated the Vietnam era just… stops. Place your faith in McGovern, and the Idealism will kill you.
The Youth of America thus places their faith in Satan… in the guise of Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin, and others.
During the Reagan Administration, Satan flourished. It got to be so bad that Al Gore had to ban him. There seemed to be a slap in the face going on toward Jerry Falwells and Pat Robertsons of the nation. “Sure, you have your guys in power, but you ain’t stopping Satan, now are you?”
It went beyond the usual suspects of Ozzy Osbourne and Judas Priest. Take that Wham video with George Michael prancing around in short shorts and those dancers with “Choose Life” shirts. Very subversive to stick homosexuality next to conservative “pro-life” messages.
In the wake of an election that evidentally turned on a massive rightwing turnout marching against gays, and a promise to pump the flag just a little harder…
We’re about due for a Satanic Uprising.

I am burning with rage as I write this, and it’s because I have just learned that a group of evil satanic bastards apparently killed a bunch of defenceless infants—and ate them.
These children were just babies.
And yet you people out there STILL want to follow satan, eh??
HOW FUCKING STUPID CAN ALL OF YOU BE????
IS THIS THE SORT OF FUCKING EXAMPLE THAT YOU ALL WANT TO FOLLOW????
I really don’t give a shit that half of you hate me for spreading a warning message about satan, because if anything, right now I have an urge to grab my sword off the wall and hunt down every single one of you satanists and hack you all to pieces, because of what these satanists did to these children.
Do you people understand??
These babies were harmless children and all because these satanic pricks were brainwashed by satan himself, they had their lives taken from them.
So if any of you expect me to stop with the messages that I’m sending out—I say TO HELL WITH ALL OF YOU.
I would rather DIE than stop what I’m doing.
