Some conservatives soil their pants over spooky Grammy performance.

Question Everything
My aunt was upset by it. It didn't show up in my media threads, but apparently AI profiled my aunt as someone who would be interested in watching it, and she was, and her feed was filled with it.
She was all wound up.
People support what they hate by clicking on it.

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I thought at first your title had said, "granny performance".

Why are they deliberately showing stuff that they know is going to be offensive to millions of people?
Much of mainstream Christian dogma is offensive (and dehumanizing) to millions of people, but freedom of speech and religion protects the right to express and support it. Should this be treated any differently?
As for why some artists show such material, I think it ranges from genuine belief in Satanism to a desire for causing intentional shock and gaining publicity. Clearly, the controversy shows that the latter is working as intended.

Another classically awful Grammy show. They somehow manage to top themselves in terrible music and performances year after year. Then about once every five years or so someone will give a shockingly good performance.
Not this year, though. This year it was all just hours of classically awful stuff. I must have gone to the toilet during that devil worshippers, as I have no recollection of seeing those. Or they didn't actually happen, which is equally plausible. In any case it was completely inane and derivative, I'm sure. And heads exploding in outrage among the MAGA nuts is hardly an unusual occurrence, now is it. So it's all just more capitalism turning everything it touches to excrement, as per usual.

I have to see that video!
If I have to be blunt, I appreciate honesty in people.
If some people in Hollywood are Satanists, they should say it openly.
I would like to tell them "Liberate yourselves, because people will find out anyway".

Yes, and fascists should also be open about what and who they are. Honesty is always better than equivocation and sugarcoating.

It's a performance. They are performers. Tacky? Maybe. Satanic? No.

I just love how so many on the Left expect me to be all outraged over this when I already listen to Slayer, Emperor, Opeth, and Perturbator.
I mean can’t an “evil far-right fascist” appreciate some awesome black/ death/ thrash and darksynth just like anybody else…?

It is a bit weird. But interesting:
And here was me thinking America was a bastion for freedom of speech.
You have the left confused with the evangelical far right.
I do know people who say it openly, indeed.
It's a fact that most Americans are either Christians or have a Christian background, so it's absolutely normal that that kind of entertainment will be not appreciated by many. Not to say by most.
I'm still amazed to hear that people really
believe that Satan exists, & is a threat.
Even many of our Christians here lack a Christian background
I'm amazed that people still watch the Grammy Awards.
If Ricky Gervais hosted, I'd watch his segments on youtube.
