The local chapter here has broken off because of issues with Lucien Greaves (I’m avoiding that discussion), so I’m kind of floating around.
Even having a few likeminded people on Lemmy would be great.

There’s seem to be plenty of like minded people. Not members but most seem to be sane and atheist or not too religious from what I have seen.
I didn’t really follow much about the leader using the same lawyer that defended Alex Jones and other trumpy grumpies, but maybe your leader is trying to poison the well. What better way to upset the right than get their lawyers to work with the satanic temple.
I need something like this, but I can’t leave the house to go anywhere. Making friends with ExJW’s might be more therapeutic.
Yo, what can i do ya for?
I got pretty excited when I saw some of the things TST does, and immediately went looking for a local group. My hope was to be able to get out with a bunch of folks and do things that may have some sort of positive impact.
It was so cool seeing other chapters in different US cities and states get out and fight for things. Unfortunately, my state just… don’t try. It’s depressing to see how much people have given up around here.
Sorry, just ranting.
My state’s chapter disbanded a while back as well. It’s honestly pretty disheartening. I think the chapters that disbanded have really lost sight of the bigger picture here. Was yours TSTFL or something else? We had such a fantastic and gorgeous redesign of the logo not too long prior to all that.
It definitely sucked having so many folks just kind of drift off and lose the connections. I ended up starting my own independent chapter under a group that’s dedicated to the southeastern U.S., who happens to be under the umbrella of a much larger group.
A lot of us have gotten together and discussed the leadership issues with TST, and opted to be the antithesis of that.
If you’re looking for a new group, we would be glad to have you!
