In a nutshell, the paragraph about "prejudice against Satania" leverages a concept known as the "right of publicity", which protects people against defamation or blackmailing, with information not intended for the public eye (like medical records).
In this particular case, the quote is completely absurd (on purpose), stating that SOMEHOW, any form of criticism against Satania counts towards an act of defamation and can lead to legal consequences.

NOTE: I am not a lawyer, nor is this actual legal advice.
