I think there are degrees to this. Levay’s flavor of Satanism is intentionally cartoonish. Satanism became “acceptable” during the cultural revolution of the 60’s. America was still very much a Christian Society back then so in order to have America accept Satanism, it first had to be introduced as a protected class even if it was cartoonish and silly. I believe Levay may have only been a useful idiot.; he hung out with hardcore Satanists like that dude with the crazy eyebrows, Temple of Set dude…

Now that mother fucker was hardcore; he was even talked about in that book published by the congressman… all of these names escape me right now.
