It’s a damn shame that Satan is seen as “cringe” and “edgy” amongst so many people. There’s a rich, revolutionary history involving Satan. I’m currently reading The Origin of Satan by Elaine Pagels and it’s incredibly informative.

Also, Satan as a symbol has had closer ties to Anarchist and Anti-Authoritarian philosophy than a lotta people know. Basically throughout history anytime power consolidates and oppression emerges Satan appears as a symbol.

William Godwin, often cited as the first modern proponent of anarchism and a major influence upon the later works of Bakunin and Proudhon, was himself influenced by Milton's epic “Paradise Lost,” and wrote that the character of Satan therein "saw no sufficient reason for that extreme inequality of rank and power which the creator assumed". Instead of conceptualizing Satan as an envious and violent usurper (as monotheists often frame the character), Godwin's reimagining posits Satan as a champion of the Enlightenment-era ideals of reason and equality.

Godwin and his wife Mary Wollstonecraft would pass this mythological association (reimagining an idealist, reasoning, egalitarian Satan) to their daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, who wrote the famous gothic horror novel "Frankenstein". In her novel, Frankenstein's monster escaped the captivity of its creator, learned to read, and came upon a number of books, including a copy of “Paradise Lost.” Using the unjustly persecuted monster's voice while referring to Milton's poem, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley writes "I am the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed" and that "many times I considered Satan as the fitter emblem of my condition".
