Can't wait to see the ~~eight~~ seven tenets of the Satanic Temple right up there next to them
Please donate to The Satanic Temple if you care about this topic and are able.
TST is not a super great org unfortunately. They do stuff for great headlines but apparently little in the way of effective advocacy. I've also heard that there are pretty bad issues with misogyny among the upper echelons. While it's extremely long at 2hrs, Dead Domain's video on the subject goes into great detail.
It's really unfortunate, I wanted to believe they were fighting the good fight but I don't know if I can in good conscience anymore

I don't know how this has become a seemingly valid method of argument for an altogether too-large segment of the internet. Make some contrarian comment and then post a stupidly long video by some random that they seem to think is valid and useful evidence.
No one is going to watch this shit. Anyone who has two hours to waste on some random dude's opinions interspersed with commercials needs to reexamine their life priorities.
