Some Moral Guardians are so paranoid that they'll attack the most ridiculous things, or will attack them in the most ridiculous ways possible. It's not just your English teacher who would always find hidden meanings in even the most straightforward text; if you believe the Moral Guardians, half the things you read and watch are secretly filled with Satanic and immoral messages supposed to corrupt our children and the poor unsuspecting audience. Essentially, they use Insane Troll Logic to prove that something is The New Rock & Roll. There are a few favorite methods used: Excluded Middle Ground All those pretty colors and shapes? Those aren't just eye candy to captivate the show's hyperactive target audience — those are eeeeeeevil occult symbols! This type of thinking runs thus: Alice wears a shirt with a picture of X on it. X is used as a symbol of Y by Z. Therefore, the X on Alice's shirt symbolizes Y. A common example is when they claim that pentagram must represent Lucifer, because Luciferians use a pentagram as a symbol. Following this logic, one could assert that the Darigold cow symbolizes Hinduism, or the Nazis stood for Buddhism. Or similarly: Bob's middle name is Hikaru. "Hikaru" means "to light." "Lucifer" means "light-bringer." Therefore, "Hikaru" refers to Lucifer and Bob is Satan. Never mind the distinct possibility that Bob is half-Japanese and "Hikaru" was chosen because it's a relatively common name that reflects Bob's Japanese heritage (maybe it was his grandpa's name or something); it must have been chosen to represent Lucifer! This is also funny because God and Jesus themselves are heavily associated with light, which brings a whole other set of implications further. Quote Mine Another trick is to take something nasty that a villain said or did out of context, then insinuate that the source material actually encourages that type of thing. This was done with the Harry Potter books, with paranoid fundamentalists citing Voldemort's actions and words as "values" the book supposedly endorses. Devil Of The Gaps Sometimes used against superhero and fantasy stories. The argument runs that if a source of what appears to be magical power is not explicitly explained or understood, then the power must come from Satan, and therefore the story is part of the Satanic agenda. A more likely explanation is that the writers intended the character to use a type of energy or phlebotinum that is as of yet unknown in our world, or that the power was intended to be a metaphor. This is often used by religious fundamentalists against any story where the powers are explicitly referred to as "magic". The basis of the argument is that, in real life, Magic Is Evil (because — according to beliefs of some religious people — it is something you can only use if you make a Deal with the Devil), so naturally all stories which feature magic are meant to indoctrinate readers into getting involved with actual witchcraft (even if the in-universe magic has nothing to do with real-life occult beliefs). How absurd is this argument? Picture a medieval peasant coming forward in time to your home and declaring that you must be in league with the devil because you use an ungodly power to light your home, cook your food, wash your clothes, etc. This power is electricity, but to the medieval peasant's eyes, such power could have only come from the devil. (This is also known as Clarke's Third Law.) Make Stuff Up And finally, some of them just make crap up, because their claims that such-and-such is an evil symbol of so-and-so has no historical basis whatsoever. Expect a lot of sloppy research (especially any number of Logical Fallacies), Falsely Advertised Accuracy, Insane Troll Logic, and Cowboy BeBop at His Computer among these people (many of whom believe that Hollywood Satanism is Truth in Television). Some of these may be born via parody, which the sufficiently naive will believe and spread as gospel truth. This is a YMMV trope. The non-YMMV version about this happening in-universe does belong on this page, but on Satanic Panic. See also Everything Is Racist and Pædo Hunt. Compare The Moral Substitute, Heteronormative Crusader, Windmill Crusader, and Informed Obscenity. Not to be confused with Everyone is Jesus in Purgatory, although this trope could be seen as a negative version of that. (Everyone is Jesus in Purgatory is about people seeing symbolism and messages in stories where none exist. This trope is about people specifically seeing evil/Satanic symbolism and messages where none exist.) |

Animal Crossing: Wild World: A number of news outlets picked up K.K.'s statement that "Those industry fat cats try to put a price on my music, but it wants to be free," and interpreted it as Nintendo advocating that Digital Piracy Is Okay, at a time when online piracy was a hot-button issue. Nintendo of America had to put out a statement clarifying that K.K.'s line was not meant as an endorsement of piracy, and was simply supposed to reflect his free-spirited nature. | |

Bleach: The tsuba of Ichigo's bankai, Tensa Zangetsu, takes the shape of the kanji for manji, referencing its meaning final. Since the manji resembles a swastika, some have taken to accusing Bleach of being pro-Nazi. Considering the chapter in which Ichigo activates his Fullbring is called "Swastika Break" and the villains of the most recent arc are a militaristic group of Gratuitous German-spouting Quincies on a crusade... | |

The Disney Animated Canon in general has often been accused of promoting witchcraft, having all kinds of subliminal messages and occult symbolism. Plenty of times, the reason of these accusations is based in the mere inclusion of magic and supernatural beings on the films, nevermind that a lot of them are actually inspired by old fairy tales and traditional legends, which already included those magical elements. | |

Turbulence 3: Heavy Metal plays with this sort of logic. Popular heavy metal star "Slade Craven" needs to take a flight to get to his next concert. He keeps up his "Anarchist" and "Devil Worshipping" persona until he boards the plane, which is when the trouble begins. See, all the stuff he sang about and allegedly stood for really struck a chord with some people. So much so that they take his lyrics as a prophecy, hijack the plane, kill the Captain and replace Slade with an impostor. It Makes Sense in Context. Slade even asks them quite seriously "You REALLY believe all that...?" and calls them lunatics. The climax of the story is that Slade has to land the plane. He's lost contact with any and all that were helping him and has no experience. Just before he attempts this he rips the Sign of Satan necklace off and says "Please God, Let us land safely.". | |

Blade of the Immortal: The main character, Manji, takes the "crux gammata" as both his name and his personal symbol. As a symbol of prosperity and good fortune, the swastika was widely used throughout the ancient world. The anti-Semitic or pro-Nazi meaning did not exist until 1910. Indeed, the swastika is still widely used in Hinduism (and Buddhism, to a lesser extent) as it was for thousands of years all over Eurasia before the Nazis appropriated it to their own use. Every volume of the US release explicitly explains right at the start that the symbol is not a Nazi swastika. While certainly played straight often, the anti-Swastika sentiment is actually a subversion in many cases. A lot of people who do recognize when a Swastika is used regardless of the Nazi connotations of it will still want to limit its public perception, at least in their own communities, as Holocaust survivors may be traumatized by just seeing the image too much whether it was intended in its use or not. Even striped pajamas have caused issues occasionally, without anyone thinking they were anti-Semitic. | |

Some people criticized a Pokémon card showing a Registeel raising its arm. Apparently, it resembled a Nazi salute. To the less paranoid, it just looks like it's raising its arm. That pose was also on its sprite in the first two fourth gen games, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, though it was altered in Platinum. | |

Paranoia was, in the '90s, accused of promoting communism. Another complaint by Christian groups was that it allowed people to play as a Muggle Power anti-mutant secret society dedicated to wiping out every mutant in Alpha Complex despite being mutants themselves. This is true, but said group is portrayed as completely evil and are deliberately made to invoke Nazi-esque imagery. They are in no way the heroes of Paranoia — there are no heroes in Paranoia. | |

Harry Potter. Hoo boy. There's been so much brouhaha over the supposed occult and Satanist themes in the series that The Other Wiki had to devote a separate article to the subject. The series contains "witches". Centuries ago, "witch" strictly meant someone who made a Deal with the Devil; therefore, even though the modern connotation of "witch" is simply "one who can do magic" and has nothing to do with Satanic origins, the magic must be Satanic and encouraging kids to pursue the same! The sad thing is that even a half-close reading of the series shows many parallels with Christian doctrine and the Gospels, especially by Deathly Hallows, but the Moral Guardians just don't know when to stop. One criticized Voldemort's drinking of unicorn blood, claiming that the book was teaching children that they could gain immortality by drinking the blood of something that wasn't Jesus. They didn't mention the parts where it's explained that drinking unicorn blood is an atrocious thing to do and that while it will stop you from dying, you will live a cursed half-life.note John Granger's extensive research into the symbolism of Harry Potter goes a different route, pointing out that the unicorn has long been a symbol of Christ Himself... overthrowing that "something other than Christ" claim and furthermore nailing Voldy's act by calling up Paul's comments on "drinking [communion] in an unworthy manner." "There is no good or evil; there is only power, and those too weak to seek it." Horrible philosophy? Yes. That's why the one saying it is the bad guy — but some moral guardians cited this as the supposed message of the book. It's probably worth noting that some of the accusations that Harry Potter was turning kids on to witchcraft came from an Onion article that someone along the line didn't realize was a joke, forwarded to all their friends, and it blew up from there. There were actually quite a few kids that started getting into the occult after Harry Potter got really popular, but if anything, the parents were to blame rather than the books. And anyone who actually knows anything about occultism quickly realizes that Harry Potter magic is a useless guide anyways (consisting almost entirely of Canis Latinicus puns). From a different part of the political spectrum, it has been claimed that the whole series is centrist propaganda and/or promotes capitalism because Harry's parents were well-off and left him a bunch of money (his best friend is poor, and other wealthy families like the Malfoys are portrayed negatively, but apparently this doesn't matter), and because at the end Harry becomes an auror instead of dismantling the corrupt wizard government. Never mind that the heroes spend much of the series fighting the corrupt elements of that government, driving most of them out by the end. In a supreme twist of irony, this left-wing neo-pagan blogger accuses Harry Potter of being filled with "latent Christianity", with Dumbledore's "coming out" apparently being homophobic. Others claim it's racist because the characters are all white, but the race of many characters is never even mentioned in the books. Some fans interpret Hermione as being black.note Admittedly, this is mostly because Harry Potter and the Cursed Child cast a black actress as Hermione. Hermione is mentioned as having pale/white skin in the books proper. And that's not even getting into all the fantasy-oriented criticisms of racism. The series takes place in the 1990s when over 90% of people in the UK were white, and there actually are a few characters who are definitely not white (Cho Chang, Angelina Johnson, Dean Thomas, the Patil twins, among others). |

Harry of The Dresden Files has to deal with this on a fairly regular basis. He does this with his usual blend of sarcasm, dry wit, and setting things on fire. He does, however, try not to exacerbate the situation, and he points out that he does not use pentagrams in his magic because he knows it would make people even more hysterical. | |

The SCP Foundation is subjected to this in the Broken Masquerade canon. Unsurprising, considering that a lot of their actions are not only unethical, but actively occult. One crazy conspiracy theorist referred to them as the "Satanic Child Pain Foundation", accused them of having kidnapped an American girl in order to make her a puppet for a European science cult, and that they had called her SCP-23-1-9. (presumably a combination of 231-7 and 239, showing that she clearly had no idea about the workings of the Foundation). | |

In A Swiftly Tilting Planet, a Magical Native American is depicted as giving birth in complete silence, but the white townspeople expect women to scream during labor. Said townspeople happen to be Puritans at the height of the American witchcraft scare, so it's treated by the townspeople as a sign of devilry. | |

Some Protestants are convinced that the Catholic Church is secretly a Satanic cult and that the Pope is the Anti-Christ. Their "proofs" often include the "horned hand" or "segno delle corna" (an old Italian charm to ward off the evil eye, as popularised by the likes of Ronnie James Dio; not Satanic), the upside-down cross on the papal throne (actually based on the tradition that Saint Peter, who is said to have been the first Pope, was crucified upside-down as he felt that he did not deserve to die the same way Christ did; compare the Saint Andrew's cross), and the hexagram (appropriated from Judaism; called the "star of creation" by some Christians and used to represent the six days of creation). You can find one of Jack Chick's highly flawed attacks on Catholicism here. | |

In The Music Man, Harold Hill convinces an entire town that a pool table is a tool of Satan to corrupt their children. He lists several "symptoms" that their children are being corrupted, which include a few things that would actually be worrisome if they happened, but also a few which were perfectly normal and harmless behaviors for teenage boys. (Like using slang words such as "swell".) In the end, he boils it down to a catchy little chant that runs on circular logic: "We've got trouble with a capital T, and that rhymes with P, and that stands for pool!" Just like in many real-life cases, this is a ploy to get the gullible townspeople to buy something: Hill proclaims that the way to save this town from falling into the clutches of evil is to start a boys' band... and Hill just happens to be a music professor (a fake one, at least). | |

Not Always Right gives us this customer, who goes to a hotel during a convention and claims that the trolls from Homestuck are demons because they have horns and that anyone cosplaying as them must be a devil worshipper. She also thinks that Human Sacrifices will be done at midnight and when she is told that the only thing happening at midnight is a dance, she is quick to twist those words into "A dance with the Devil". | |

Dungeons & Dragons — One of the big ones. Certain people have claimed that the game contains "authentic" occult rituals and spells. The immortal Jack Chick did a whole tract, the infamous "Dark Dungeons", about fantasy gaming being a gateway to Satan. This is in spite of the fact that Gary Gygax was himself a Christiannote Although Gygax was a Jehovah`s Witness, whom many Christians regard as "false Christians". — you'd think portraying demons and devils as bad guys, and angels as good guys, would be an obvious enough clue of his actual stance. This has caused other game companies (like Rifts publisher Palladium Books) to place a disclaimer in all their books stating that their books are works of fiction and they don't condone the supernatural or occultism. Some books actually do include ceremonial and Ritual Magic information. The entire Goetia (Lesser Key of Solomon), minus the sigils, made it into Dragon Quest in 1986. |

A professor had an Al Snow figure pulled off Walmart shelves. Since the figure comes with a miniature female head with the words "Help Me" written on it, she believed it promoted violence against women. Anyone familiar with The Gimmick would know that he was a Cloud Cuckoolander who talked to a mannequin head. | |

Happened in a fashion in a Batman Story Arc revolving around the publishing of a Batman comic within The DCU, which is a ridiculously over-the-top Darker and Edgier interpretation of Batman involving the occult. (Bruce Wayne couldn't get them to stop as he obviously never copyrighted Batman.) A Serial Killer calling himself "Batman" proceeded to kill those whom he perceived as "sinners", claiming that it's what Batman would've done. The comic book writer stopped making any more by the third issue, claiming he wouldn't bear the responsibility for any further killings. | |

Rainbow Brite — Accused of being Satanic by Texe Marrs, due to the abundance of stars and rainbows in its imagery. According to Marrs's logic, if someone who isn't God is throwing around rainbows, that person is definitely promoting Satanism. Surprisingly he didn't seize upon two (actually, three) connections that would have halfway made sense. The star is an ancient symbol of Islam (or, alternately, could be mistaken for the pentagram), while the rainbow is one of the most famous symbols of gay pride. So, you could say that Rainbow Brite is a satanic Islamist-homosexual! Texe Marrs really lived and died by this trope. In Circle of Intrigue, Texe quotes Hermes Trismegistus as saying "God is a circle." He then reasons that, since Hermes was a Satanist, Hermes's god is Satan. Therefore, by his logic, anything that uses a circle as a symbol is Satanic. He then goes on to list examples of things that have circles in their logos, coats of arms, or general shape. | |

Parody sites like Christ Wire play with this a lot. For example, in their analysis of Glee, they accuse the straight Glee club teacher of turning kids into homosexuals because he dances and sings a lot, and they also criticize it for encouraging kids to "have fun in the arts" instead of pursuing "real" careers. They skip over all the show's much more obvious attacks on the Christian Right — like the fact that the celibacy club president becomes pregnant, or the way her ultra-conservative, Glenn Beck-loving parents throw her out of the house when they find out. Even better is their article where they accuse The Golden Girls of turning "a generation of American boys into homosexuals." | |

Through a combination of a poor knowledge of history, general paranoia, and the Aes Sedai tendency to meddle in everything, many people in The Wheel of Time-verse believe the Aes Sedai to be evil and aligned with the Dark One. By and large, the most you could say about them is that they're incompetent. To be fair, only the Whitecloaks support such a negative view of the Aes Sedai. In most countries they are respected but not trusted, because of their flair for Exact Words and Metaphorically True statements It doesn't help that a small minority of Aes Sedai historically have been evil and/or aligned with the Dark One, that the Aes Sedai claim (even to themselves) that they are the one group this cannot possibly be true of, and that providing enough contrary evidence to perpetuate rumors of the "Black Ajah" - never quite enough to convince the Aes Sedai of their validity - may have been an actual long-term project of the Dark One. Slightly more justified with male channelers — the Dark One actually did taint Saidin, so the devil actually does make male channelers go crazy and kill everything. |

Since the colorless energy image on the Pokémon trading card game looks like a hexagram, it led to the game being repeatedly considered a Zionist conspiracy, and banned in Saudi Arabia, as shown here. There's also the presence of crosses (Christianity) and triangles (Freemasonry) in the cards. There was also quite an uproar about a Nazi swastika in the background of a Zubat card illustration... turns out, the card image was flipped when brought into America, and it's the symbol of peace they intended to put on the card. Not that most people in America would be able to tell the difference anyway. |

During the infamous Satanic Panic of the 1980's, lots of metal bands such as Slayer and Black Sabbath were accused of hiding Satanic messages in their music via backmasking. This ignores the fact that if you listen to music backwards, and are trying to hear something, the gibberish will naturally sound like something to you. Today, accusations of backmasking are almost always Played for Laughs, though there are still some conspiracy theorists who take them seriously. The Sabs went out of their way to refute any and all claims of satanism or worship thereof, as stated in both Ozzy Osbourne and Tony Iommi's memoirs. While they did dabble with the occult back in the day, it was more out of curiosity than a sincere devotion towards the dark arts; Geezer Butler came from an Irish Catholic background while Ozzy is at least to some extent a practising Anglican. As for Slayer, Tom Araya is actually a devout Catholic, which is far cry from the ostensibly satanic themes in their music. Araya explained that he seperates his beliefs from his career and would never compromise their music to appease those in the same faith as he is in; any and all satanic references in their music are all just for shock value. |

Teletubbies: The purple one with the triangle and handbag, Tinky-Winky, is often used as proof that the gay liberals are forcing their godless agenda on children.note This "theory" was actually in reaction to reports and commentary by left-leaning sites like Salon.com that Tinky-Winky was being celebrated in the gay community as an "icon"—a la Judy Garland. But then... Judy wasn't gay, either. He also wore a skirt at times that the other male, Dipsy, refused to wear (strangely, it seems this was never brought up by either side). Religious fundamentalists also claimed that the symbols on the Teletubbies' heads were actually Satanic symbols designed to brainwash children, despite the fact that most of the series' target audience can't grasp symbolism. |

Pokémon — accused of being Satanic for various reasons. Two ridiculous examples that stand out is the accusation that the -mon suffix stands for "demon"note It stands for "monster" in this series. This confusion is more sensible than the others, because Pokémon shares a genre with Shin Megami Tensei. or that the card game is a "stepping stone" to the equally satanic Magic: The Gathering (the fact that Magic is put out by Wizards of the Coast, the same company that first produced Pokémon cards in America, didn't help.) Supposedly, Pope John Paul II even approved of Pokémon, though this does not necessarily help, as many fundamentalist Protestant sects consider him to be the Anti-Christ. Arabic countries banned the game (though it has since been made available and popular in many Arab countries since) due to it containing a six-pointed star, and it's been claimed that "Pikachu" means "be a Jew," or worse, "stronger than God" in Latin America. (The truth is much more benign; the name is based on a Japanese onomatopoeia, coming out to roughly "Sparklesqueak" in English. Alternatively, it's named after the small fuzzy animal known as a pika. Or it could be both; they do love their puns in Japan, after all.) Koga's Ninja Trick shows a manji. What's so bad about a manji? Well, it looks an awful lot like a swastika. Some people thought it meant Pokémon was encouraging Nazism. A few distinct Pokémon have been subject to criticism from paranoid watchers. The Pokémon Houndoom has been accused by some of representing Satanism, since it is characterized as a hellish dog with horns and a barbed tail. Some people criticized a Pokémon card showing a Registeel raising its arm. Apparently, it resembled a Nazi salute. To the less paranoid, it just looks like it's raising its arm. That pose was also on its sprite in the first two fourth gen games, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, though it was altered in Platinum. There are creationists who accuse Pokémon of being anti-Christian because the Pokémon "evolve". Anyone with even a passing familiarity with the franchise will immediately recognize that the "evolution" portrayed in the series has absolutely nothing to do with the actual concept of evolution, and is in fact much more similar to the real-life phenomenon of metamorphosis (caterpillars becoming butterflies and the like). Pokémon apparently promotes Roman gladiators, but the arguments in the video are laughably bad. First, he claims Pokémon stands for "Pocket Men", when it stands for Poketto Monsuta, which is "Pocket Monsters" written in Japanese katakana, and claims that series creator Hideo Kojima created the series for Racism. He compares battles to Roman gladiator matches, and Poké Balls as cages they keep the Pokémon in, leaving out the fact that Ash gets along very well with his Pokémon. The fact that the arguments in the video are laughably bad, combined with the fact of his other video subjects, his video about hashtags make him a likely Poe. A rage comic here chronicles the author's supposed encounter with the trope (obviously, take it with a grain of salt); a DJ refuses to play the Pokémon theme song, because some people find it anti-religious, but has no problems with playing sexist rap. |

The Imperial Order in the Sword of Truth claims this about wizards and sorceresses in particular, but also in general about anyone who is better than anyone else at anything. They are not nice people. It also doesn't stop them from employing these wizards and sorceresses, either. A mob tries this on Zedd. He stokes their fears of him until they all run away screaming. How? By asking them to explain why they're afraid of him. | |

Worth mentioning is Magic: The Gathering. It has been associated with everything from pagan rituals to Tarot cards. This has reached a point that demons were actually barred from the game for a while and replaced by horrors to avoid accusations of satanism endorsing, before Wizards of the Coast realised that was a dumb decision. | |

In Mage: The Ascension, the Technocracy encourages this sort of thinking in order to turn the public against the Traditions. Granted, the Traditions do engage in some morally dubious practises (cf. the Euthanatoi's "Good Death" or the Verbena's ritual sacrifices), so while the logic may be faulty, it may get close to something the Traditions don't want revealed. The irony is that the Technocracy would be just as valid a target for this, given that they're a world-spanning conspiracy who engage in such things as mandatory brainwashing of their agents. | |

Warhammer 40,000 occupies a weird place to say the least. See, the Imperium of Man (the POV faction for most lore material) is an obvious satire of totalitarian political ideologies, especially fascism. Most 40k fans (including, no, especially left-wing ones) know this. However, it's also a setting somewhere between Evil vs. Evil and Black-and-Grey Morality. So when the 40k writers inevitably depict the Imperium acting heroically, some left-wing fans will accuse the writers of glorifying fascism. None of this is helped by 40k's Misaimed Fandom of actual fascists. A user on The Other Wiki, on a talk page for a 40k-related article, tried arguing that the symbol of the Ultramarines is based on the symbol of the Ustašenote (a historic group of Croatian collaborators with the Nazis during WWII). Ignore the fact that the Ultramarine logo is just the Greek letter Omega (Ω) turned upside down. They even claim the "ultra-" prefix is a reference to ultranationalism (instead of, you know, a reference to the actual shade of blue called ultramarine). |

Hazbin Hotel is a musical horror comedy that tells how Charlie Morningstar, the daughter of Lucifer and princess of hell, decides to try to redeem sinners and give them the opportunity to enter heaven. so it was practically inevitable that this would happen. As soon as the first trailer appeared, several videos from conservative Christians accused the show of "glorifying Satanism" and presenting Satan as a good guy, in addition to mocking Christianity, in an animated series "clearly intended for viewing by young children." | |

The Whiteadders from Blackadder are devout followers of this trope, believing that everything from mashed turnips to sitting on chairs is the work of the devil. They still giggle when they find a turnip that looks like a "thingy". Because they also had raw turnip on their wedding night. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic did not escape unscathed, either. There's a forum thread which culminates in a debater concluding that the show was actually created by Satan to turn good Christian men gay, apparently in mistaken belief that the show is about "men trying to hook up with each other". And not about, y'know, ponies. This article (in Polish) argues that the show is actually evil occult propaganda meant to convert kindergarteners to Eastern religions, arguing that the protagonist is named Twilight and the word "twilight" means darkness, Celestia being white and Luna being black means they are meant to represent the yin-yang (which actually is explicitly shown in the pilot), and connecting a crystal that can be seen in one scene to the Three Jewels in Buddhism. The article also claims that the fact that there are bad guys in a kids show teaches kids that good cannot exist without being balanced by evil. Which, according to the author, is Blatant Lies, because "God doesn't need evil to be good, and he's perfect". By such, kids shows should not feature bad guys, to teach kids that the world is only filled with good, because God exists. And yes, it's all apparently 100% serious. There are also quite a few articles which parody this (or are they really parodies?). The usual themes are that the show is anti-Christian because it includes magic, shows animals as sapient when only humans are made in the image of God, and the fact that the name of the show's producer is Lauren Faust, so she must have a Satanic agenda. A good example is here. One blogger accused Rainbow Dash of being a lesbian (simply because of her mane and her love of athletics), and saying that books won't get you anywhere in life and you need authority figures to tell you how to be happy (completely ignoring the fact that Twilight Sparkle's book knowledge more often than not gives vital information to the characters). After reading it, one gets the impression that the author did not watch past the end of the opening credits. Fortunately, Lauren found out about the blog post, firing back with one that addressed every concern and criticizing the original poster. This actually ended piquing people's interests, causing them to tune into Friendship is Magic to see what all the fuss was about. A few people liked what they saw and stuck around, helping to create the "brony" phenomenon. Thus, by trying to stop people from watching the show, the original article made far more people watch it. |

Parodied by Todd in the Shadows in his review of the song "Like a G6". He determines that the song is Satanic after hearing Dev's "like three six" line, ultimately stretching it to conclude that all pop music is controlled by the Devil and that we must repent before the great Johnny Cash. | |

The YouTube channel iamaphoney started out as a series of "Paul Is Dead" videos, but branched out into theories about the Beatles worshipping Aleister Crowley and other such things. For example, the Beatles were known for using backwards tracks, and since Crowley wrote "let him learn to talk backwards..." | |

Similarly, the Diablo series fell into this for a number of uninformed parents. Diablo is the name of the Satanic Archetype that the player is meant to fight, the Big Bad of all three games, and the Final Boss outside of expansion packs. The player, as a holy warrior or even a nephalem, is charged with destroying him. This hasn't stopped a few from claiming the entire series is meant to drive people into worshiping Satan. | |

The Twilight Saga gets this treatment in this video that claims Edward Cullen was named after the kid who escaped a Satanic cult that one time, and the chessboard on Breaking Dawn's cover is supposed to look like the floor of a Masonic lodge. Incidentally, Bill Schnoebelen is the guy who claims that Dungeons & Dragons contains "authentic" spells and rituals. Given the bizarre, sensational, and contradictory stories he's told over the years, it's conjectured that he simply makes a large portion of his stuff up. | |

Parodied in In Nomine. In Nomine is a game about an actual conflict between the angels and the demons where demons are just fallen angels, and yes, capital G God the Almighty exists but chooses not to just end it. The angels (fallen and otherwise) are not sure which religion is true - Laurence is a Catholic, but Gabriel (Jibril) did in fact deliver the Qu'ran to Muhammad. It's played for laughs. The inside cover says, "Satanized for your protection. Do not play this game backwards." | |

The Chronicles of Narnia has actually been banned in some Christian school libraries because it's supposedly Satanic. Never mind its obvious Christian allegories, it was written by a devout Christian, and that Aslan is literally Jesus. As with Mr. Potter, fundamentalists also hated Narnia because it mentioned magic... making it quite obvious to everyone that apparently every fundamentalist ever skipped the day that symbolism was taught in Language Arts class. In the original edition of his anti-Dungeons & Dragons (see below) tract "Dark Dungeons", Jack Chick claimed that the works of C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien, which D&D was based on, were... you guessed it. This is hilarious because Mr. Lewis was a professional Christian writer and apologist; one of his more famous works was The Screwtape Letters, in which he details the methods for combating Satan's influence, and the Narnia books are today treated as a Christian substitute for Harry Potter by some parents. Tolkien was also a devout Christian, and was supposedly responsible for Lewis' conversion. However, it's important to note here that Tolkien was a Catholic — Chick (like many fundamentalist Protestants) views Catholicism as not only un-Christian, but a flat-out Satanic deception, frequently using the Catholic Church as the big bogeyman in his tracts and conspiracy theories. Telling Chick that Tolkien was a Catholic, and that he was responsible for Lewis's conversion, would probably only strengthen his negative views of both men's work. |

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) was accused of promoting bullying because the other reindeers are assholes to Rudolph because of his nose, even though the whole special is about embracing your special qualities. You'd think people would have more of a problem with Santa saying that he's going to "cancel Christmas," which implicitly makes the holiday Santa Clausmas while subverting the celebration of Christ's birth. | |

Once notable Roblox user TheJKid used to run a popular Roblox fansite. However, he would ultimately end up quitting the game altogether. According to his blogpost, he, as a very devoted Christian, believed that the spawn image and many of the items (specifically ones with the theme of "evil, darkness, or death") were offensive to Christians and signs of the Devil, and appearances in one's own home could result in Demonic Possession. This all started when his uncle believed the spawn symbol was satanic and TheJKid ended up agreeing with him. | |

There's no question that the original DOOM eventually takes the player to Hell. Enemies are explicitly referred to as demons, and Satanic imagery is rampant. However... the player is tasked with destroying these images and agents of evil, yet the game has been accused of supporting the forces of Hell instead of opposing them, just for featuring them at all. According to id level designer Sandy Petersen, he saw no conflict between his affiliation with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (of whom he is a devout member of) and the Satanic themes present in DOOM. He went on to tell John Romero during development that "I have no problems with the demons in the game. They're just cartoons. And, anyway, they're the bad guys." |

It's not as common as other examples, but the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game and anime have been attacked for being Satanic and evil. Take this article for example. Part of the argument is that the game encourages summoning Pagan gods and refers to the Ancient Egyptian themes as "occult". It also mentions nearly everything else that gets attacked for being demonic (Harry Potter, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering).note Surprisingly, despite the fact that people like this attack the concept of Yugi harboring an ancient spirit, they don't seem to attack Yugi himself for his typical attire. | |

Rock: It's Your Decision, a Christian-made film about The New Rock & Roll (reviewed brilliantly by Brad Jones on DVD-R Hell) becomes all about this. A formerly rock-loving teen starts to discover all the "horrible and evil" elements to rock music, eventually turning against it completely by the end of the movie. However, as pointed out in Jones' review, the "hero" of the film clearly had no idea what the songs were about in many instances, and by the end has become so paranoid, self-righteous and horrible to everyone around him that one kind of has to wonder if the audience was really meant to side with him. The best part is when he starts giving examples of evil influence in the titles of the songs. | |

Ditto with the subjugation the Sámi people faced from Nordic missionaries. In 1609, King Christian IV of Denmark wrote that the Sámi were heathen sorcerers skilled in magic and demonic sorcery, and as such no mercy was to be spared when it comes to such "occult" beliefs. Such persecution against Sámi religious beliefs were alluded to in Frozen II, whose Northuldra tribe was used as an allegory for tribal discrimination. | |

A user on The Other Wiki, on a talk page for a 40k-related article, tried arguing that the symbol of the Ultramarines is based on the symbol of the Ustašenote (a historic group of Croatian collaborators with the Nazis during WWII). Ignore the fact that the Ultramarine logo is just the Greek letter Omega (Ω) turned upside down. They even claim the "ultra-" prefix is a reference to ultranationalism (instead of, you know, a reference to the actual shade of blue called ultramarine). | |
