@DanaDooDah I need to go back and relisten, but I believe Mae did eventually change her position, doing episodes in 1987-88 about the occult where she openly cited The Ultimate Evil and talked about the cult involvement with Son of Sam and Manson
@DanaDooDah The attitude to immediately attack people with a different view, rather than hear them out (as MB initially did with Sanders' work, and current MB people do to you now), is frustrating, and I don't blame you for being suspicious of them over it
@DanaDooDah When it comes to Mae herself, I try to give some benefit of the doubt, because people on the left have been especially inundated with "satanic panic"-style propaganda. Even Dave McGowan talked about how he used to think that way before ultimately coming around.
@DanaDooDah Dumb as it was for her to attack in the first place, I think that Mae coming to accept occult involvement as real and doing shows on it to a wide audience is ultimately to her credit. Just found the bibliography of her show which includes The Ultimate Evil.
@DanaDooDah Certainly I would hope that she apologized to Ed Sanders privately and/or publicly as well
