The world is burning.

Hell yeah

[-] NoxAstrum@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Probably more like great, great, great, great granddaughters. Also, in Iceland, most of the witches killed were men.

[-] raid_dad@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

And as we all know, men can’t have granddaughters.

And it wasn't the people she's talking to who couldn't burn them, it was their great, great, great great grandparents. Hell, it could have been some of her own.

NGL, as a pagan myself, it is disrespectful both to pagans and to the women who were murdered in witch trials to pretend that they were actual witches. The overwhelming majority of women killed in the so-called "witch trials" were not doing anything that could be considered witchcraft, and they would consider being called a witch an insult.

We can condemn this bullshit without disrespecting these women by forcing a term on them that they would never have used themselves.

I assume it’s meant tongue-in-cheek. A jab at the ancestors who used the term to exert their oppression, and a means of taking back the word as we’ve seen with other derogatory terms.

Eh, it's complicated (if you must, look up Granny Weatherwax) but one assumes your goodwill. Be Thou Well.

I assume STP would approve, maybe Tiffany Aching...but the idea was a psychological witchiness. Hence the blessing.

[-] Poteau_Poutre@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago

Witch burning was a pagan thing. Christians tried to prevent the witch trials

.....no.
