Satanists dont target women (or men, kids or animals) for abuse. If they did, I doubt they would use magic anyway. There are very few people (especially Satanists) who will claim to be so effective at spells/rituals that they can throw around curses every other day.
There is an excellent video of Derren Brown using (what Satanists would call lesser magic) on YouTube, that demonstrates perfectly how magic works. This would be a Satanists most likely option for any magic that they needed.
Cults themselves are not illegal, but certain activities or practices that cults engage in may be illegal, such as fraud, abuse, or manipulation. Authorities may intervene if cults are found to be engaging in criminal behavior or violating laws.
Many satanic cults all use terms regarded by Christians as unholy and referring to the Evil One. They also, however, are all heavily individualized, supporting creativity and freedom while rejecting dogmatic religion. They are highly ethical, believing in only going after people who offend them, and only seeing Satan as a wise teacher, not a god or higher being.
They hint back to the Satanic cults of the 1300's. It's become a tradition to put it on gold jewelry, but it is mostly frowned upon my many historians.
Yes, there are reports of satanic groups and cults in Oklahoma, as in many other states. These groups often engage in occult practices and rituals, though they may not always be organized in the traditional sense of a cult. Some are more focused on philosophical or atheistic interpretations of Satanism rather than the worship of a literal Satan. It's important to approach claims about such groups with a critical perspective, as sensationalism can often exaggerate their presence and activities.
Of course there are cults in Canada. There are cults anywhere!
