Sadly, the black-robe, blood-and-horror stuff that most people associate with Satan and Satanic ritual is far from the reality that pervades the Novus Ordo. What's happening in the NO is what happened in the Garden. Satan, a being of far superior intelligence and power than any mortal person (especially those in mortal sin), has duped the pew-sitters into asking "Did God really say" what He has commanded?
Anton LaVey and others like him have made ridiculous parodies out of some aspects of Satanism that are ultimately just window-dressing. Those who were hiding their heads in the sand, especially in America, in the 30s and 40s and refused to believe that Modernism had reared its soul-killing head within the precincts of the Church were SHOCKED in the 60s when Paul the Sick said what he said about the "smoke of Satan". All the gullible and unaware people in the parishes suddenly got all a-skeered of creepy-looking people in sinister, slightly sci-fi looking outfits doing all sorts of things that seemed to mock the Faith while mimicking it.
90% or better of what people think of when they hear "Satanism" is cartoonish and very far from the truth.
The real destructive power of Satan over human lives is apparent when he encouraged men like the so-called "Founding Fathers" of the US to bring their anti-Church, deist, Enlightenment self-deterministic lies to bear on the philosophical and sociological attitudes of the people of a burgeoning nation.
Nowadays, he works to deceive and encourage men of finance, politics and "culture" and tricks them into believing that their success and influence are not only not FROM God, but are not attributed to anyone else but themselves.
He tempted Our Lord with the same lie: Honor and worship me, and I will give you reign over all these nations. Rather than YOU receiving power to point those nations to GOD, like a true king would, you'll be able to direct all their attention and adoration to yourself.
In today's world, that exactly the lie that the Newbishops and anti-popes have bought into. They are living the lie that God prophesied would be stopped once and for all, crushed under the foot of the New Eve.
Be encouraged, friends. As bad as it seems out there, it's only a matter of time, Deo gratias.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, triumph soon!
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
