Sort of ties into Religious OCD a little bit

I want to try and be brief since I don’t want to overwhelm anyone here. For the past few months I’ve been posting about my progress in regard to conspiracy theories I’ve been bumping into, and how they’ve been effecting me mentally and my perception. I’ve been stressing more as of late on Satanic Ritual Abuse, and how it’s tied to a lot of companies and government programs. I’ve been stressing about this in particular because of the fact that A: a majority of pieces of media are potentially brainwashing material, so I don’t really have a safe space to when it comes to escape. And B: The fact that if all this Satanic stuff is true then it means religion is true and apparently I’m doing something wrong in regard to morality. On top of that I’ve met a few people with sort of Satanic faith and they’re pretty chill. Honestly curious if there are any others who stumbled into this rabbit hole whilst researching Epstein, as well as people who just so happen to have a satanist aesthetic, and what your viewpoints on all this are.

I've done research on alternative religions and from my understanding, a lot of historical hidden groups utilized occult (so spiritualist, pagan, etc.) imagery and practices. I think even if those tied with Epstein did Satanic rituals it wouldn't prove Satan is real, in the same vein that any secret society that conducted occult rituals throughout history doesn't mean what they believed was real. I've met people of New Age or other spiritual faith who are chill, yet I've heard of believers of those faiths that have done bad things; I'd think the same applies to those that have a Satanic faith too.

@Spencer Z It just starts turning into a weird coincidence when you start looking at so many things at once. Many people making connections to certain things such as symbols and numbers. Recently stumbled into an Instagram post claiming that the LGBTQ+ is demonic in a way because of how Pride Flag represents the Seven Chakras turned upside down and leaves out Indigo which represents Spirituality. Of course I was a little taken a back by this because I’ve been a strong ally for the LGBTQ+ community for years, and even have a few friends who identify as such. Of course I’ve never believed in judging an entire group based on a few bad eggs, and I was able to find a fair amount of contradictions, but hearing about this has started having me question everything again.

@Logan Bayham - There's a bit of symbolism in everything, it's just how we connect things whether it's true or not. There are symbols that are intentional, and then there are those that are coincidental and spawn separately. I'm versed into this stuff and my OCD has latched onto stuff like that personally too, attaching meaning where this isn't, so yeah our brains can get haywire with the details.

@Spencer Z Hearing a lot of this stuff at first can definitely be upsetting at first and have you uncertain with the world. Stressed myself out pretty bad earlier this year after doing Epstein Files research, even discovering entirely separate rabbit holes that as well. Not exactly helping that there are a bunch of people peddling claims that the files confirm things such as fast food chains using human meat, but at the same time not providing any sort of document number to back up the authenticity of these claims. It’s just been really crazy.

I've heard a bit about that, its like this conspiracy about Epstien and the elite is real, but there comes more conspiracies that don't have an actual basis. The way its being revealed also doesn't help the situation, I remember people were calling it out last year and it was building up.
