This article appeared on the "Loompanics" website around 2001 - the original owners were no longer able to maintain the site as the personal website days were often a very expensive hobby and when they changed such as essentially unlimited and 100% Letter of the Law Free Speech - via Dreamhost and others - the "Social Media" trend was taking over. This article has been archived in various places for years but I found it impossible to find recently and so have decided to "Mirror" it myself for nostalgia and relevance.
Thus for the sake of and with permission stated at the end of the site by the owners I am -re-archiving this article originally posted from Loompanics about the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s. This is for the TTRPG community of today experiencing a fake "Woke" politics that masks Omega Stage capitalism and will likely lead to "Satanic Panic 2.0" once the looting and smearing rainbow fecal matter phase is over.
The Article will be presented fully as original - and commentary made after:
Again this era had it so most sites allowed and begged others to "Mirror" them as when a site got popular it could instantly become obscenely expensive and ruinous before the popularity could gather any advertisement to compensate.
Another thing - This was written by "Thom Metzger" who wrote a lot for them - anarchist free thinker no relation save common in some areas last name to another more notorious Th Metzger... link to books on Goodreads!
