Fun Fact: Neither the upside down cross nor the pentagram are satanic/demonic.
The upside down cross is actually a holy Christian symbol, it's the symbol of Saint Peter. When Saint Peter was sentenced to death by crucifixion he said that he wasn't worthy to die the same way as Jesus, so they flipped the cross upside down. It's also on the popes throne.
The pentagram is a pagan symbol in two ways; First, it's the pagan symbol for summoning, granted the most common summons were demons (which might be why it's thought of as satanic/demonic), but it could also summon angels and supernatural creatures like ghosts. Second, it's the symbol of Baphomet who in the pagan religion was the top good god holding the same position as say Odin or Zeus and was the god of balance, opposites, and equality. Baphomet image was taken and used by Christianity as the image for what Satan/demons looked like (another reason for why it might be considered satanic/demonic).
Bonus Fact: 666 is not the number of the devil/Satan/mark of the beast, that was actually a mistranslation. When a student pointed out the second six looked different than the other sixes the teachers looked closer, agreed, and got others to check the original. When they checked they realized that it was actually 616 and they had read it wrong. Most people however don't care as they think 666 looks and sounds better.

Oh I understand going with popular misconceptions, it's just the comment I replied to sounded like you actually believed the symbols were satanic/demonic. Which now that I look closer and think about it the comment might have been in character and not the real you.
Especially since I just remembered that the Anarchy symbol has nothing to do with religion in any way, it's a political movement.
