Alabama Republican U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville had a stark warning for the approximately 100 Utah GOP delegates who crowded into a Bluffdale warehouse to hear him speak on Friday afternoon: Malevolent supernatural forces are working to undermine America.

40 years. The Satanic Panic was strongest in the 80s. Dungeons and Dragons, oooohhh, oh no. Motley Crue said Shout at the Devil! Daycare employees are undoubtedly sacrificing horses and making children participate.
See: Michelle Remembers
Anyway, ok Tommy. I can’t take you seriously because of your name. See the Friendly Atheist blog to learn how far off these jokers are from understanding anything at all. Support the Freedom From Religion foundation and the Satanic Temple.
Yep, you hit the high points. The McMartin daycare thing was insane.
And I am sorry to report that I did in fact read Michelle Remembers whenever it came out; I had finally forgotten it Thank You Very Fucking Much lol. Of all the lurid unworthy trash I have read in my life, that was likely the unworthiest.

Satanic panics will be back, and in greater numbers.
What if I said it was a Migrant Cult Caravan?
That’s so four years ago…
What have we got that’s new?
Umm… communists?
I thought it was the 80s, with the backmasking/D&D/Judas Priest bullshit?
Jesus, I’m so old all the screaming/arm flapping/Chicken Little satanic panics are starting to blend.
EDITED TO ADD: I should have read the other comments first, lol.

For a hot sec, I was like “the mid 90s weren’t 30 years ago”.
Death is just around the corner for me.
