I am a relative newbie here and haven't stepped on too many toes. YET
Try to ignore the emotional outbursts. Just skip over them if you are sensitive, as I am.
I try to concentrate on the informative and to provide positive and helpful info.

I use DU as a news aggregator, perhaps the best, and I use HackerNews ( news.ycombinator.com) as an aggregator of tech news, including some great posts on privacy, which I share here. One example:

Digital Security and Privacy Tips for Those Involved in Abortion Access
I should consolidate these. Action item for me.
More to your point, the Satanic Temple has won a few victories, nothing more significant, IMO, than placing their symbol alongside the customary, in a few places.
I *do* feel, from what I've read, that if Judaism, in large part (correct me if I read this wrong) believes that life begins at first breath, then this matter IS a freedom of religion issue, one religion imposing its doctrine on others. No new religion needed!

BTW, privacy is an extremely tough issue. When you communicate with someone else, your message is usually saved on their device, and can be retrieved by many methods, including a demand to show the message under threat (for example in a plea bargain) encrypted or not. "Just show me the message that XYZ sent" and this is being played out in real time.
EFF has lots of info.
