    The satanic panic also had the advantage of "legitimate" doctors and psychiatrists claiming that satanists had such occult powers and mastery over hypnosis, that they could erase both physical and mental scars from both victim and perpetrator.

    People would literally get told they ate kids but had their memory hypnotically locked away, then confessed to doing those crimes. I can't imagine that happening today.

    I mean, those same doctors are still active today but way more marginal, and still doing the cult grift.

      Also reactionaries wanted to forgive any confessors to such satanic crimes, those who didn't stupidly go to the cops became massive celebrities despite claiming to be mass murdering sex criminals who targeted anything and anyone living for the worst violence possible.

      Detransitioners barely get the most basic human courtesy, and those doctors who "dissent" disavow any involvement, merely being witnesses.
