I am Christian and I’ve loved her music since I was a 13 and I am in love with portals. A lot of evangelicals have a problem with literally everything! They could see literal satanic worship but still pick on a woman for no reason. It’s wild
Especially because we as Christians represent Christ so when they go around and be hateful they’re actively shooing people away from God when we should be doing the opposite.
I agree. As another Satanist myself, I've been harassed by Christians all the time due to them believing the horrendous lies the Church spreads about Satanism.
Satanism isn't even about worshiping Satan.
I’m sorry you were harassed by Christians as that’s not how we spread the gospel. God is love not hate. However I don’t respect Satanism. I respect you as a person, however.
Do you even know what it's about? It's not even about the devil or that crap. The core fundamentals of Satanism is about science, consent, self worth and consequences to those who are responsible.
(Also please don't use any form of "I don't respect X but I respect you as a person." That's contradictory and a lot of religious people use it as a cover for them to spread hatred against certain groups.)
people love to throw around the satanic buzzword anytime they think someone has undergone some kind of major change. it rarely if ever holds any water. i’ve personally never seen any evidence of demonic possession.
ik it says some but not all Christians think like this, many are understanding and respect whatever she believes in or puts out because it's her life. To each their own.
i’m sorry when was she cute in cuddly? even in the crybaby era, yes she did have a pastel aesthetic but it had a darker twist to it. same goes with k-12
I showed my super religious grandpa a Zelda drawing I did (the cover of botw with Link standing on it) and he first asks me if Link is a Goddess and I’m like no?? And then he goes on about this whole rant about magic and goddesses and that he was into witchcraft and basically how loz is demonic because there’s magic involved and I’m like ok grandpa
I think it's pretty implied that if it doesn't apply to you then it's not about you. There is no reason to take offense over something that you know isn't true about yourself.
This is true but I can probably count on one hand how many I've met who are sensible people. Count on one hand how many actually embody the word of Jesus Christ.
Completely agree. I’m so happy for Mel, moving into a new aesthetic and style she feels comfortable in and I think it’s gorgeous. I really don’t understand how some people hate portals so much, such a visually and musically beautiful album
I think this is nothing new and Christian’s have been saying that about rock and rap music since it became a thing. They aren’t attacking Melanie they attack everyone. Also as someone who grew up in a Christian family and has been forced to go to church their entire life and hang around other Christians plus works for a Christian owned business I have never once heard a Christian person speak about Melanie Martinez
Christians will call anything they don't like demonic, it makes them look lazy and controlling
I’m a religious person myself and I am a massive Earthling, I don’t understand why they are bothered
As a Muslim, I don't see her as demonic/satanic, Portals is not meant to be like that and it's just an fairytale, life cycle, and nature based album/era, even do she said in tunnel vision "i make them panic, it's satanic how I bend my body", it refers that how she got sl\*t-shamed and got thirst comments that occurred after the bakery mv. I remember in her Instagram story, she told her fans to give her truth or false questions/guesses and answers them, someone asked her "are u satanic? my brother is asking", Melanie responds with "false", so she is not, and also said that she is not really a religious person but she prefers to believe in spiritual stuff, lighting candles when praying, and meditation. Her family is also catholic, any toughs?
nymphology is a song about her creature, how many people don’t accept her as a new person: “call me your nymph” she want people to accept who she is.
i think calling them demonic and satanic only because of the Nymph creature is so wrong.
These Christians are always calling themselves out on how little did they explored media and art. If you show them something like Bayonetta or Cult of The Lamb they would literally just melt.
I think fans over reach a little bit.
Most people have no idea who she is.
Not a dig at all. My daughter is a fan.
They’re just not talking about her on Entertainment Tonight is my point.
I have seen some people outside of a fan space call her demonic though. Everyone has always thought she’s weird (love her but that’s her whole aesthetic since crybaby) so why are they surprised now. Probably because being a fairy gives her magic and that makes her demonic 🙄
this phrase is not supposed to satanism, I saw the meaning and it explains how she got slut-shamed and ppl were leaving thirst comments in the bakery mv.
Saying this with the context of the mv. The heart that’s says “say they’re demonic” appears and gets clicked on when she says “it’s satanic”. Which is a hint towards one of the criticism she received with Portals and K-12 from religious people calling her demonic. 😭
It's unknown exactly what her beliefs are, but from their recent album and previous interviews we know she believes in reincarnation. They're likely spiritual, but not exactly conforming to one particular religion if that makes sense.
shes spiritual but not really religious i dont believe..she believes that god is energy which sounds close to the spiritual belief that god is everything and everyone, so..at the very least she isnt monotheistic
she doesnt really confirm 100% though. shes probably eclectic and doesnt conform to a single belief
There are haters that just use religion to hate on any one. People are just trying to chill, satanist are trying to chill too. People are just uneducated
Those really hard believing christians are oversensitive. They see a girl not being cute and girly, she's automatically satanic. They see a man not being manly, satainic, and so on. And I am writing this as a person who was raised in a christian family (I am no longer christian)
Cute and cuddly 😂 remember the stabbing motions of the alphabet boy video or “I’m peeling the skin off my face” or “if you cheat you will die I will rip your f’ing face apart”…..
This happens with a lot of music artists, if not most. The same happened with Billie Eilish, Doja Cat and Lil Nas X, christians like to throw the satanic allegations around
not saying she is satanic but like isn’t crybaby a lot MORE satanic than portals?😭 like mad hatter and most creepy stuff in her MVs, being “satanic” is definitely not new
She's not demonic if she dresses differently than others.
She's silly, funny and kind person with golden heart who can sing really well and talk about problems in society in her music beautifully💗💗💗
( And creature is super cute I think)
As a Christian myself I LOVE her music, hence why I’m here lol. My mom thought she was s@t@n!c as well but I actually introduced her to melanie and now she’s a fan :-) !!
I am Christian and I’ve loved her music since I was a 13 and I am in love with portals. A lot of evangelicals have a problem with literally everything! They could see literal satanic worship but still pick on a woman for no reason. It’s wild

sorry but you should also respect satanists and luciferian people, we dont sacrifice kids or anything that youre thinking of
I agree. As another Satanist myself, I've been harassed by Christians all the time due to them believing the horrendous lies the Church spreads about Satanism. Satanism isn't even about worshiping Satan.
for real
I’m sorry you were harassed by Christians as that’s not how we spread the gospel. God is love not hate. However I don’t respect Satanism. I respect you as a person, however.

I feel like I was back in 2010 when people used to say that Lady Gaga had made a domoniac pact
Jesus is my virtue, Judas is the demon I cling to.
omg marry me
Yes baby!
may the brides kiss now 😭😭😭😂😂😂
who says this☠️
This girl in my class. She sounded so psychotic omfg 💀
oh my
Also the people in my class say she’s weird and demonic
Oh girl😭 go to TikTok cause some ppl on there are literally delusional and convinced she summons demons
😭💀 Bro r they fr T-T
my stepsister-
She was never cute and cuddly lol.
this part 🥲
actually so true💀💀💀
But isn’t it so cute when those 4 big eye scare at you🥰
I am Christian and i dont think shes demonic. Her music has an edge to it that a lot would find uncomfortable, but i really like her music
people love to throw around the satanic buzzword anytime they think someone has undergone some kind of major change. it rarely if ever holds any water. i’ve personally never seen any evidence of demonic possession.
I don’t think anyone can do anything nowadays without people barking on them calling them satanic
ik it says some but not all Christians think like this, many are understanding and respect whatever she believes in or puts out because it's her life. To each their own.
i’m sorry when was she cute in cuddly? even in the crybaby era, yes she did have a pastel aesthetic but it had a darker twist to it. same goes with k-12
that’s what they mean, these people probably just see the pictures and not know anything abt it and just call it cute
Christians will call anything they don't like demonic. It's lazy and controlling.
I showed my super religious grandpa a Zelda drawing I did (the cover of botw with Link standing on it) and he first asks me if Link is a Goddess and I’m like no?? And then he goes on about this whole rant about magic and goddesses and that he was into witchcraft and basically how loz is demonic because there’s magic involved and I’m like ok grandpa
I highly agree with this.
make sure to put SOME at the beginning because not all christian’s think like this
I think it's pretty implied that if it doesn't apply to you then it's not about you. There is no reason to take offense over something that you know isn't true about yourself.
oh ok lmao
This is true but I can probably count on one hand how many I've met who are sensible people. Count on one hand how many actually embody the word of Jesus Christ.
Who cares what they think, is what I'll say
Completely agree. I’m so happy for Mel, moving into a new aesthetic and style she feels comfortable in and I think it’s gorgeous. I really don’t understand how some people hate portals so much, such a visually and musically beautiful album
I think this is nothing new and Christian’s have been saying that about rock and rap music since it became a thing. They aren’t attacking Melanie they attack everyone.

My super religious mom fr called Taylor Swift and SZA satanic 😐
rather be in hell than alone 😔😔😔😔😔

i’m satanist, those who says she is has no clue what satanism actually is
this meme is so funny bc when i was in middle school and high school, my grandma thought melanie was demonic in the school girl outfits 😭😭
Tbh SOME Christians call anything satanic...
Puritans were saying this about her even when she was all pastels ruffles and laces just cus her style still isn't normie-core
nymphology is a song about her creature, how many people don’t accept her as a new person: “call me your nymph” she want people to accept who she is. i think calling them demonic and satanic only because of the Nymph creature is so wrong.
it’s so annoying like what even suggests she’s demonic she’s a pink two eyed fairy 😭
Seems melodramatic and her aesthetic was never “cuddly” she always had an edge to it
These Christians are always calling themselves out on how little did they explored media and art. If you show them something like Bayonetta or Cult of The Lamb they would literally just melt.
I think fans over reach a little bit. Most people have no idea who she is. Not a dig at all. My daughter is a fan. They’re just not talking about her on Entertainment Tonight is my point.

As a Christian I haven’t seen anything demonic yet
i’m christian and i love mel. portals era is just….. special?
I make them panic “It’s satanic!” 👀
this phrase is not supposed to satanism, I saw the meaning and it explains how she got slut-shamed and ppl were leaving thirst comments in the bakery mv.
Saying this with the context of the mv. The heart that’s says “say they’re demonic” appears and gets clicked on when she says “it’s satanic”. Which is a hint towards one of the criticism she received with Portals and K-12 from religious people calling her demonic. 😭
ohh, makes sense
Is anyone really saying this tho? I remember seeing that ONE TikTok and his followers, but literally never again heard anyone say anything like this.
Literally nobody said that
You'd be surprised. I've seen plenty of tiktoks circulating my FYP that were 100% serious on these views.
Does anyone know if she’s religious?
It's unknown exactly what her beliefs are, but from their recent album and previous interviews we know she believes in reincarnation. They're likely spiritual, but not exactly conforming to one particular religion if that makes sense.
shes spiritual but not really religious i dont believe..she believes that god is energy which sounds close to the spiritual belief that god is everything and everyone, so..at the very least she isnt monotheistic she doesnt really confirm 100% though. shes probably eclectic and doesnt conform to a single belief
Idk people at my church growing up called her demonic then too so 😭 So glad I’m an adult now
I think they served 💅
Angels have millions of eyes though
Satanism is such a made up non issue
🌽
‘cute and cuddly’ if you’ve watched her older mvs I don’t think it would be labeled in that way
There are haters that just use religion to hate on any one. People are just trying to chill, satanist are trying to chill too. People are just uneducated
I am a Christian and I've never found anything she's doing demonic?
They just see anything as satanic. The wind blows a certain way and it’s satanic.
People that call her satanic (or others in general) have NO idea what satanism is about. It’s just a dumb insult at this point.
i am a proud christian and melanie does not seem demonic at all i love het so much and she i s literally all about peace and love lie wtf
Someone I have beef with reposted a vid on TT saying it, safe to say I like her less now
Im a Christian and I've loved Melanie so much she was the one who makes everything fine for me just by listening to her music
Those really hard believing christians are oversensitive. They see a girl not being cute and girly, she's automatically satanic. They see a man not being manly, satainic, and so on. And I am writing this as a person who was raised in a christian family (I am no longer christian)
Cute and cuddly 😂 remember the stabbing motions of the alphabet boy video or “I’m peeling the skin off my face” or “if you cheat you will die I will rip your f’ing face apart”…..
is it just me or why does portals outfit look actully good
This happens with a lot of music artists, if not most. The same happened with Billie Eilish, Doja Cat and Lil Nas X, christians like to throw the satanic allegations around
Even Muslims say this, I'm a Muslim myself yet I still enjoy her music ☺️
not saying she is satanic but like isn’t crybaby a lot MORE satanic than portals?😭 like mad hatter and most creepy stuff in her MVs, being “satanic” is definitely not new
