i think you'll find it goes back much further than frederick the great, at least to the roman king numa, as machiavelli points out in the discourses (which are freely available online) where he says that religion justifies the state. but there is religion and religion, as anyone who has read the pursuit of the millennium (among other books) will tell you.

Changing the facts
Baphomet is a fairly recent and deliberately designed symbol, so we can be fairly certain about his provenance.
Beelzebub is arguably older, although again not the devil.
Even The Devil isn't really the devil. Doesn't even make an appearance in the OT.
Point is that any number of beings entities people symbols signs etc can be given any number of different names and attributes that probably don't pertain to the origins. We project and load all kinds of stuff personal and collective into/onto convenient vessels.
But in the same way it's important and necessary to distinguish Truss from Thatcher and differentiate one foul Home Secretary from the last despite ideological similarities it's also useful (and I'd argue its importabt) to have a working knowledge of the symbols that inform and flow from our collective culture.
Imo.

Just to remind everyone, this is the person in charge of the public healthcare system. A picture of health herself.

to be fair i don't think the health secretary needs to be a picture of health. they just shouldn't trample over the health of everyone else, and in her brief time at the department of health dr coffey has shown how she doesn't give a fuck about the health of the people, scrapping eg the work that had been done on obesity. she does look pretty much the same now as when i was briefly acquainted with her many years ago. but back then she didn't have the power to damage people's health that she now enjoys.Just to remind everyone, this is the person in charge of the public healthcare system.

Proper break this time
Basically licensing agreements. It's pretty complex. I've done some work helping out a friend's band and have completely forgotten most of it. But somewhere between agents, PR, lawyers, management and artists, they will draft an agreement on what the music can be licensed for. Usually that's going to be an exclusive list, and it's a bit difficult to comprehensively work that out. I imagine more established management will be used to working that out, but obviously every artist has different requirements, and every artist wants to keep that list as expansive as possible (money) without compromising too much on their values. Once that agreement is reached the artist probably isn't going to hear about any of the decisions, simply because they're a muso, and would rather be doing other shit. And these things usually have to be worked out very quickly (production schedules). This sounds like someone ballsed up, or possibly there er... hmm. It is possible, though certainly only one of a number of possibilities and no-one should be accused of anything, this is pure speculation... it is possible that an omission of the full nature of the conference to be licensed to could have occurred. Because 'political purposes' is probably something I'd slap in there by default as 'artist should be consulted'.
n.b again, just have kind of tangential experience, not a professional opinion, please don't sue me.
