These days there are so many teenagers who've seen this stuff on the net, so like you say it's a great way to get attention and increase profit.
Whereas when government and big business use these symbols, including the companies who own the music industry, we have to keep the investigation open and delve in deeper.

In the 1980's everyone thought Motley Crue was "Satanic" too. Turns out they are just old guys wearing wigs now. 
Seriously...it's marketing. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Jimmy Page didn't take that bridge on Stairway to heaven and first read the "satanic" lyrics and reverse THOSE to phonically figure out which words could create the reverse satan lyrics.
Page is super smart and a genius in the recording studio.
EDIT: In other words...what we call "viral marketing" today. |
