Planned Parenthood finally finds a worthy ally - the Satanic Temple of Detroit

Planned Parenthood must be so proud!

Back in high school, they hung out behind the gym, comparing Bauhaus t-shirts, smoking, and despising the “phony corporate trappings of post-war suburban America.” Then they (sort-of) grew up. It quickly became clear that they were too dysfunctional to succeed in the real world, so they had to create their own reality. Thus, the Satanic Temple of Detroit was born - an organization designed to give 25-year-old goth kids something to do when they aren’t working at the T-Mobile store. HTML5 video is not supported!

Keep in mind, these “satanists” don’t really believe in Satan. They don’t actually “believe” in anything. Their movement really boils down to secular atheism, but they like to dress it up in the trappings of a religion and use it to troll normal people. They hold meetings in abandoned warehouses, enjoy laughable sculptures, and mock the rest of us. Basically, they’ve realized the power of irony coupled with the First Amendment, and they’re pushing their schtick as far as they can.

That's all well and good for them, but I have "realized the power of irony" coupled with the 2nd Amendment, so it would be best for them if they do not f--- with me.

That's either an oxymoron or a redundancy. Would they wear all black or all white?
