Grey Faction, Satanic Temple and Lucien Greaves Fact Sheet:
For over a decade Douglas Misicko using several aliases (including
Douglas Mesner and Lucien Greaves) has harassed groups helping child
abuse, rape and trauma survivors. He has also harassed groups providing
research in support of child abuse, rape and trauma survivors.
In 2013, he and others created a group called the Satanic Temple.
One part of this group is called the Grey Faction. The Grey Faction
states they “invade” conferences. These conferences are provided to help
and educate child abuse, rape and trauma survivors and their helpers.
Their representatives that invade these conferences misrepresent
their reasons for attending these conferences. They film people at these
conferences without permission and publish these films without the
permission of those filmed. The Grey Faction repeatedly misrepresents
the research and statements of the people at these conferences. It uses
repeated ad hominem attacks against child abuse and trauma researchers
without rebutting their research or stories.
His organization uses propaganda techniques in its articles, movies
and social media pages to manipulate readers’ opinions. They continue to
repeat inaccurate information, even though it has been clearly rebutted
in several of the articles listed below.
Douglas Mesner/Lucien Greaves has continued using insults and
attacks against survivors of ritual abuse and the professionals that
work with them. He has harassed and followed survivors and survivor
advocates around the Internet for several years. Aliases have been used
adding additional insults and name calling against survivors.
This page is a synopsis of critiques of the Grey Faction’s
misinformation. Additional links have been added rebutting their
statements about trauma, abuse and dissociation.
It also contains information critiquing The Satanic Temple and Douglas Mesner/Lucien Greaves.
Critiques of The Satanic Temple by Satanists and Satanic Groups:
religion: a master and slave relationship by Shane Bugbee
https://web.archive.org/web/20160405153153/http://www.shanebugbee.com/?p=2161
“I’ll try to explain why I have such a disdain for The Satanic Temple, a
practical joke turned religion and could be cult, and the reasons
behind my need to make that disdain public, as there is seldom one
reason.”
“Then Doug told me his main motivation for The Satanic Temple was
profit, to create a “substantial income”, that was enough for me to want
to cease helping in any way, and to question the true intent of this
project. While I am all for profit, I want nothing to do with a cult.
Because the people The Satanic Temple wants to extract money from are MY
people….”
“I recall Doug Mesner telling me the C.I.A. had asked him to write some private reports for them.”
Former TST member – Allegations of anti-Semitic comments
“TST and my excommunication from them after their recent Sabrina
settlement and resurfaced antisemitic rant of Luciens from an old
podcast. Folks are beginning to see the trends and connections
identifying them as a business cult”

Alleged anti-Semitism connected to Doug Mesner (Lucien Greaves – Satanic Temple co-founder) both aliases:
“Like, I think it’s okay to hate Jews if you hate them because they’re
Jewish and they wear a stupid fuckin’ frisbie on their head [correct
term: yarmulke or kippah] and walk around [and] think their God’s chosen
people, but it’s not okay to hate somebody [‘born of Jewish blood’]
just because their parents were stupid fuckin’ Jews and wore stupid
frisbies on their head and thought the Jews were God’s chosen people […]
Not everybody of Jewish blood is okay with me, it depends on if they
follow the Jewish, uh… […] Satanic Jews are fine,” (Adam, “Doug Mesner
[Lucien Greaves/Douglas Misicko] Satanic Temple Anti-Semitic Rant”
(transcribed).”
On the Psychological Projection of Antisemitism by Satanists https://danielkbuntovnik.wordpress.com/
“Tom Metzger, a former “Grand Dragon” of the California Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and founder of a neo-Nazi group called White Aryan Resistance.”
“In the Might is Right podcast, Misicko engages Metzger in a
lengthy discussion in which Misicko questions Metzger about “Jewish
bloodlines” and the racial policies of Nazi Germany (Bugbee and Mesner, “Might is Right Special” https://archive.org/details/MightIsRightSpecial
“[note: the interview, which lasts 36 minutes, starts at about
19:27:30 and ends at 20:03:50]). At one point during the recorded
conversation with Metzger, Misicko states, “I think there should
be eugenics policy, population control policy. Something that ensures
quality reproduction.” Although Misicko qualifies his
pro-eugenics statement with the caveat that his ideal eugenics system
would be based on IQ testing or “intelligence laws” (as opposed to being
based strictly on racial grounds), it is known that IQ testing is
culturally biased and that race is a cultural construct. Thus when
Metzger objects that “[although] there are gray areas […] if you judge
the black race by its whole, you must come up with the idea that they’re
definitely an inferior race,” Misicko tries to win Metzger over to his
position by implying that eugenics would still decimate the
Afro-diasporic population even if it was based on IQ testing instead of
race when he argues, “But that being the case [i.e., the case being that
posited by Metzger—that “the black race by its whole (is) definitely an
(intellectually) inferior race”], you still wouldn’t have to enact
racial laws, you’d just have to enact intelligence laws, and if that
[black intellectual inferiority] was being the case, then that good
segment of the population would have to drop off.” Here it is clear that
what Misicko euphemistically posits as “that good segment of the
population” is an intellectually “inferior” segment of the population
whose “race” is disproportionately Black. What is essential to
comprehend about this segment of the interview is that Misicko is
attempting to sell de jure “IQ-based” eugenics to Metzger as de facto Black
genocide. Metzger responds to Misicko’s idea by saying, “Well, we’ll
leave you the project of raising the IQ of the black race to about 140
and I’ll be standing by when you’re successful,” prompting laughter from
Misicko and his co-interviewers, Amy and Shane Bugbee. Shortly after
that, Amy Bugbee (the wife of Shane Bugbee) chimes in to assert her
belief that white people are not “necessarily the same species as blacks
or Asians, you know, or any number of different races.” Tellingly, the
Confederate battle flag was prominently displayed at the studio where
Misicko recorded with the Bugbees (see: 5.2), who also strangely claimed
that they held their wedding ceremony “in South Carolina because it is
legal to fly the Confederate flag there” (Sula). The interview ends with Misicko promising to send Metzger a “personalize[d] copy” of Might is Right.”
Might Is Right or The Survival of the Fittest, is a book by pseudonymous author Ragnar Redbeard.
First published in 1890, it heavily advocates egoist anarchism,
amorality, consequentialism and psychological hedonism. In Might Is
Right, Redbeard rejects conventional ideas of human and natural rights
and argues that only strength or physical might can establish moral
right….
There are also controversial parts of the book that deal with race and
male–female relations, claiming that the woman and the family as a whole
are the property of the man and proclaiming the innate superiority of
the Anglo-Saxon race. The book also contains many strong anti-Semitic
statements…. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Might_Is_Right

Unmasking Lucien Greaves, Leader of the Satanic Temple
The author and Doug at a book signing for Might Is Right, 2004…. Lucien
Greaves of the Satanic Temple first showed up at my door over a decade
ago. He wanted a copy of a book I had republished called <i>Might
Is Right</i>. It was a 100-year-old tome, long forgotten by most,
with the exception of Anton LaVey,… The release of this new version of
Might Is Right became a phenomenon within the underground, and that is
what brought the future leader of the Satanic Temple to my door. Only
his name wasn’t Lucien Greaves at the time, it was Doug Mesner. (This
isn’t the first time Doug has been connected with the Temple, though it
is the first time he has publicly admitted his involvement.) When he
first came to my home, Doug brought a stack of his drawings and writings
with him. It was amazing stuff, and much to my surprise he left it with
me. Not long after our first meeting, and after reviewing his
sketchbooks at length, I reprinted a limited edition version of Might Is
Right and asked Doug to illustrate the chapter headings for it. His
work on the book was truly excellent. When I began podcasting in 2002, I
invited him to co-host the first-ever live streaming 24 hour broadcast.
For 24 hours straight we interviewed guests, philosophized, and argued.
It was so great we did another one a year later….

Video Critique of TST and Doug by a former Satanic Temple member
“In the intervening months, the decision to sue Twitter has grown
into part of a controversy that’s engulfed the organization and recently
led one of the Temple’s major chapters, the Satanic Temple Los Angeles,
to leave the group entirely. The breaking point, according to a
statement issued by the former TST Los Angeles, is the attorney
representing Greaves: Marc Randazza, a First Amendment lawyer who
currently represents a major neo-Nazi publisher, several key alt-right
figures, and Alex Jones.”
“Ali DiPasquale was one of the two chapter heads of TST Los Angeles.
In a phone interview, she told us that all 30 people in the chapter
voted unanimously to leave the Satanic Temple. DiPasquale alleges that
in the nearly five years she’s been a TST member, the organization has
become more hierarchical in a way she found unsettling.
“It went from where all the chapters were very autonomous but worked in a
larger network,” she said, “to this national council and executive
ministry who pretty much appointed themselves.” DiPasquale alleges, too,
that the executive leadership was largely white and male, a decision
that didn’t sit particularly well with her.”
“If all of this weren’t enough drama roiling the Satanic Temple, in a
separate controversy that somehow also took place over the past week,
one of the group’s international chapters has decided to leave. The
Satanic Temple London & UK announced their departure last week; they
subsequently renamed themselves Satanic Temple International.
In a statement, Zeke Apollyon, STI’s founder and High Cardinal, told us
in part that TST was unable to adequately represent the priorities of
Satanists abroad:
Our decision to leave came from our needs for decentralised bureaucracy
and freedom from governance that was culturally isolated. The issues in
the EU and around the world are different to the US. For example, some
of our governments are theocratic and freedom of speech isnt a luxury
afforded to citizens in many parts of the world. “
“My role as a visible female voice in the organization seemed
vital—after all, on multiple occasions, leadership exclusively invited
men to speak on women’s reproductive rights campaigns. A decision I
strongly oppose.
In February of 2018, the Temple asked me to step away from my role as a
spokesperson due to the content of one of my personal performance pieces
in which I called on people to sabotage and execute “the president”.
The language I used was considered offensive by a few unnamed members in
the Temple, and out of consideration for their discomfort, I stepped
down. I stand by my words.
My departure was mutually agreed upon, but it was also business as
usual—a small group of individuals with no accountability to the
organization they represent asserting a paternalistic need to put a
woman in her place, gain control, and undermine her autonomous power. I
will not compromise the content of my creative work to satisfy the fears
and complacency of others. The Satanic Temple that I joined years ago,
when it was full of potential and courage, no longer exists and I cannot
allow my voice, however controversial, to be silenced.”
“Over the years, members and chapter heads have requested and proposed
the implementation of a gender, sexual, and racial diversity policy to
ensure equity within TST leadership and alignment to the mission. The
demand was not simply ignored but completely dismissed.”
“Likewise, while they have a mission “against the exclusion of other
voices,” there has been no effort to create a diverse membership or rid
the organization of a culture of racism and sexism. TST continues this
hypocritic legacy to this day. The Salem Gallery regularly hosts
whitewashed panels and art exhibitions.”

Doug Mesner aka Lucien Greaves, Truth About The Satanic Monument
Hello Adam —
….We are prepared to turn in our monument proposal and I was wondering
if you wouldn’t mind being our member to establish our standing in OK?
What this means is that we would submit our proposal as the Satanic
Temple, on your behalf as a resident of OKC. Where this could possibly
be problematic for you is that we need to put a legitimate address for
you on the paperwork. Is this something you’d be willing to do? Let us
know — we’ll get you out a membership card and certificate ASAP>
Thank you — Lucien

Local Satanists speak out in support of Satanic monument at State Capitol
We’ve all heard about the Satanic Temple out of New York that is
working to get a monument to Satan erected at the Oklahoma State Capitol
next to the one of the Ten Commandments.
Now, a local Satanist couple is coming out in support of the project.
In fact, Kelsey Daniels’ name is on the application to the State Capitol Preservation Commission.
Harvard can do better than give a platform to a “Black Mass” promoter who ridicules sex abuse victims
More Internet searching shows Greaves, as Doug Mesner, works closely with the False Memory Syndrome Foundation,
which was founded by Pamela and Peter Freyd after their adult daughter
Jennifer accused her father of rape. (Remember Jennifer’s name; it comes
up later.) One of the organization’s founding members, the late
Ralph Underwager, gave a lengthy interview to a pro-pedophilia journal
in the 1990s in which he criticized pedophiles for not being “bold
enough.” Underwager said, “Pedophiles can make the assertion
that the pursuit of intimacy and love is what they choose. With boldness
they can say, ‘I believe this is in fact part of God’s will.’”….
Moreover, I am not encouraged by the fact that Greaves is close with
registered sex offender Adam B. Daniels, who, along with his wife, run a
Satanic worship center in Oklahoma. Here is a video interview in which
they talk about why they personally submitted the application for
Greaves’ Satanic Temple to build a monument to Satan at the Oklahoma
State Capitol. Just this week, Daniels told an Oklahoma news stations of
his “conversations” with Greaves.
Look up “Adam B. Daniels” in the national sex offender
registry and you will see that he was convicted of sexual battery in
2009. The rap sheet notes that he has satanic tattoos all over
his body. The court ruled that he had to remain on the registry for
life.

A “Literary” Satanism? Decrypting Proto-Fascist and Antisemitic Themes in The Revolt of the Angels by Anatole France
….In the attempt by The Satanic Temple’s leadership to construct a new, coherent idea of “Satan”
which they calculate will be an acceptable exoteric ideological façade
to present to the world, the sect has a program of two “Primary
Readings” for new members. These readings are The Revolt of the Angels (1914, originally La Révolte des anges) by Anatole France
(1844–1924, born Jacques Anatole François Thibault) and The Better
Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined (2011) by Steven Pinker
(1954–present) (thesatanictemple.com, “The Satanic Temple Library”;
freethinker)…..
Continuing to follow the narrative in The Revolt of the Angels, we
find that Anatole France relates that after this first Satanic revolt,
the angels led by the Seraph (i.e., Lucifer or the “Angel of Light”) are
defeated in battle by the angelic forces loyal to Yahweh. At this
point, plant and animal life is described as beginning to appear on
Earth. The defeated angels, having fallen to Earth, are now demons.
Casually glorifying sexual assault and pedophilia, Anatole France
informs the reader through the voice of a demon called “Nectaire” that:
“Some of us [demons], being a little unruly, liked to [sexually] grope their [Mankind’s] women and children,” (204).

unscientific socialist movement.”
Pinkwashing: How “The Satanic Temple” Exploits LGBTQ+ Causes as a “Progressive” Fig Leaf https://danielkbuntovnik.wordpress.com/
“We see an example of this in Satanic Temple co-founder Douglas
Misicko’s essay “Down the Spiral of Purity,” written in response to the
secession of the Los Angeles chapter of TST in an act of protest against
his decision to associate TST with Marc Randazza, a lawyer who
habitually defends right wing extremists in court and has been involved
in the case Sines et al v. Kessler et al, whose defendants include
members of the neo-Nazi terrorist groups that orchestrated the violent
attacks on anti-racists during the infamous August 2017 “Unite the
Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.”
Witchy Protests and Fake Feminists: The “Satanic Panic”-cum-“Burning Times” as Völkisch Myth and its Basis in Antiziganism https://danielkbuntovnik.wordpress.com/
“Despite the fact that The Satanic Temple has openly made a
spectacle of symbolically perpetrating male sexual violence against a
woman’s corpse, its leader having rubbed his genitals on a woman’s grave
under the nonsensical pretense of pretending to turn her into a lesbian
(7.2), the sect nevertheless attempts to portray itself as being
aligned with feminism and women’s liberation movements by posturing as a
group engaged in pro-choice activism and which defends the rights to
abortion and access to contraception.”
“By examining the “Burning Times” myth and seeing that it fails to
measure up to the reality of witch-hunting in the early modern era, we
will see that, in a completely analogous way, the “Satanic Panic” myth
fails to measure up to the reality of the “moral panic” narrative’s
status as a meme for those eager to dismiss concerns about neo-fascist
operations and the organized aspects of sexual abuse as “exaggerated.”
On the Psychological Projection of Antisemitism by Satanists https://danielkbuntovnik.wordpress.com/
“The Satanic Temple’s spokesman Douglas Misicko sums it up this way:
“Like, I think it’s okay to hate Jews if you hate them because
they’re Jewish and they wear a stupid fuckin’ frisbie on their head
[correct term: yarmulke or kippah] and walk around [and] think their
God’s chosen people, but it’s not okay to hate somebody [‘born of Jewish
blood’] just because their parents were stupid fuckin’ Jews and wore
stupid frisbies on their head and thought the Jews were God’s chosen
people […] Not everybody of Jewish blood is okay with me, it depends on
if they follow the Jewish, uh… […] Satanic Jews are fine,” (Adam, “Doug
Mesner [Lucien Greaves/Douglas Misicko] Satanic Temple Anti-Semitic
Rant” (transcribed).”
“In April 2018, The Satanic Temple’s anti-psychiatry operation “Grey
Faction” produced and published a short video titled “The Greenbaum
Speech: The Satanic Panic’s Central Folklore.” By presenting clips from
the “Grey Force”-advocating psychologist’s speech in a lurid way, with
“spooky,” old-timey footage of creepy-looking people holding a seance,
the video attempts to portray discursive exploration of links between
Satanic psychological operations and the CIA’s “Project MK Ultra” as
quasi-psychotic, irrational, and, moreover, antisemitic. The “Grey
Faction” video falsely asserts that the so-called “Greenbaum Speech”
makes “wildly implausible claims” which “lack corroboration.” Taking
into consideration the following arguments, we will see that although
the narrative associated with the so-called “Greenbaum speech” may well
contain some distortions or corruptions, the essential elements of the
historical narrative summarized above (involving the recruitment of
Jewish concentration camp inmates for participation in Nazi research and
experimentation—not only as human guinea pigs, but as researchers—and
the recuperation of Nazi research by the post-WWII CIA “behavioral
modification” program[s] known as “Project MK Ultra”) are plausible and
can in fact be corroborated by a wide variety of reliable sources.”
Cultural Gaslighting; or, “Falsified History Syndrome” https://danielkbuntovnik.wordpress.com/
“”The concern of The Satanic Temple’s “Grey Faction” with spreading
the “moral panic of the 1980s and ’90s” and “witch-hunt” memes under the
label of “Satanic Panic” throughout mass media (often shallowly buried
under the pretext of leading a “separation of church and state” fight)
has as much to do with trying to harass the medical community into
altering science to match the group’s pseudo-rationalistic religious
beliefs (e.g., by revising positions on the existence, prevalence,
and/or treatment of various mental disorders, implying the ultimate
negation of the medical model of mental health care) as it does with
sowing doubt in the public mind about matters of 20th century history
which continue to have important political implications today.”
“In examining the links between the anti-psychiatry activism of The
Satanic Temple and the Process Church and their roots in the conspiracy
theories of the Church of Scientology about Judeo-Bolshevik “psychs,” we
have been led to the CIA’s “Project MK Ultra,” which, we have seen, can
be supposed to have benefited from the Church of Scientology’s
anti-psychiatry discourse because the latter disseminated a false motive
for the widespread psychiatric abuse occurring under the aegis of
“Project MK Ultra”
“Ironically, the historical negationists’ invariable delimitation of
the “Satanic Panic” to the decades of “the 1980s and 1990s” is
indicative of the fact that it is this “moral panic” narrative itself
which is apt to be viewed as an attempt to implant false memories. By
getting enough major media outlets to repetitively broadcast enough
times that steady refrain of Satanic Temple spokesman Douglas Misicko
(i.e., “the Satanic Panic of the 1980s and 1990s”), the public may thus
begin to falsely “remember” that the “Satanic Panic” began in the
1980s.”

Alison Miller’s reply to Evan Anderson, Grey Faction Director of The Satanic Temple (TST)’s Grey Faction
“The reason I discontinued my membership in the
College of Psychologists has nothing to do with the Grey Faction’s
harassing complaint about my writings and online videos. I left the
College because I am 78 years old. I retired two years ago.” – Alison
Miller
“That is why I resigned, not because I was about to
be found guilty of promoting unscientific conspiracy theories. Anderson
has posted his complaint and the College’s response, distorting the
story by omitting the College’s letter to me and my response to it. As
for not being allowed to call myself a “psychologist,” that is the
situation for every retired psychologist. It is similar for other health
professions, and it does not indicate that the work I did was inferior
or that I was found guilty of unethical behavior.” – Alison Miller

Supporters – Presentation by Neil Brick

“My license to practice therapy has been threatened with filed licensing
complaints by people connected to a group called the Grey Faction, a
part of the Satanic Temple. My job as a therapist has nothing to do with
my advocacy efforts to stop child abuse and I have very clear
professional and private boundaries that I maintain to ensure this
continues to occur. Yet, the Grey Faction associates keep harassing me
and others in the field. Their attacks are factually inaccurate and
meritless.”
“I believe that the work of the Grey Faction is meant to
purposefully dehumanize and insult ideological opponents, so our ideas
are derided and not believed.”
Reply to the Satanic Temple’s Grey Faction online guest post
https://ritualabuse.us/ritualabuse/reply-to-the-satanic-temples-grey-faction-online-guest-post/
“In conclusion, the guest post by the Satanic Temple’s Grey Faction
criticizes the strong research and theories of ritual abuse survivors
and those with years of research, experience and education in the trauma
field. (The members of the Grey Faction have unknown credentials and
may not have the experience to accurately determine trauma theory and
research.) The guest post by the Satanic Temple’s Grey Faction presents
inaccurate arguments, which are refuted in this article.”
“The Grey Faction claims they are combating pseudoscience with rational
inquiry, but this rational inquiry is actually predetermined opinion,
bolstered by name calling, ad hominem attacks and insults. There is no
real rational inquiry because there is no evidence that all of the facts
were looked at neutrally to derive a conclusion. It appears the only
facts considered were the ones that back their arguments. In its
articles, the Grey Faction hides behind the name of science and
rationality, when in reality it appears it is an advocacy organization
used to discredit ritual abuse survivors realities’ and their
resources.”
Reply to the Grey Faction’s Petition to Revoke the License of Neil Brick
https://ritualabuse.us/ritualabuse/reply-to-the-grey-factions-petition-to-revoke-the-license-of-neil-brick/
“The petition states that The Allied Board of Health Professionals
licensure division, having previously received a complaint…did nothing.
The fact is that no violations were found and no disciplinary actions
were taken (against Neil Brick after a one year investigation). We
believe that this new letter is part of the continued actions of
harassment against Neil Brick and those that help child and ritual abuse
survivors.”
“The (Grey Faction) petition states “While we are not privy to records
that indicate methods of treatment employed in Neil Brick’s
practice.”….There is no evidence there are any problems with any methods
of treatment Neil uses.”

regarding Neil Brick in continued ad hominem attacks on his research.)

thick glasses, and he’s very short and very frail.” (Note: These
descriptions are inaccurate and show continued personal attacks on those
supporting child abuse survivors.)
Douglas Mesner and the Lucien Greaves Satanic Temple Connection

“The Satanic Temple’s website stated: In 2012, Neil Bricke, raised in a
multigenerational Satanic Temple tradition of worship, decided, with the
blessings of his fellow Satanic devotees, to officially found the
Satanic Temple.
SMART believes that this was meant to be an attack on Neil Brick, the founder of SMART.”
(Note: Unfortunately this false story was carried by several media outfits. Most never issued any corrections or retractions.)
“In another article at vice.com (also covered in other Internet
articles) about Satanists turning the founder of the Westboro Baptist
Church’s deceased mother “gay,” the article describes “Lucien Greaves”
performing a “Pink Mass” over the grave of the Westboro Baptist Church
founder’s mother. The article states that the Pink Mass is a Satanic
ritual performed after death that will turn a deceased person’s straight
spirit into a homosexual one. This event was covered on many other news
pages also. The Satanic Temple states it eschews supernaturalism, yet
performs rituals over a dead person’s grave.”
“There were also pictures of Lucien Greaves on the Internet of
him pulling his penis while rubbing his scrotum on the gravestone. In
the state of Mississippi, where this ritual occurred, “Lucien Greaves”
was charged by the police with desecration of a grave according to a
vice.com article and other articles on the Internet.”
Critiques of Doug Mesner/Lucien Greaves by others:
“We are asking everyone to sign this petition and let others
know about it. Let’s stop the attacks against child abuse survivors and
their helpers.”
“Recently vicious online attacks have been published by The Satanic Temple’s Grey Faction and Douglas Mesner/Lucien Greaves.”
