Outlive the motherfucker. That's what you're doing to do. Survive and thrive out of sheer spite if necessary. Live for the day that nature takes it's course and you wake up in a world that no longer has them in it.

Apply where applicable. Repeat as necessary.

Literally one of the best things you can do for yourself as a beginning witch, occultist, or whatever, is to stop worrying about what other practitioners are saying and doing and go educate yourself on the history of magic and the occult. If you don't know where to start, I have a list of resources over here.

How to (Affordably) Use Selenite to Cleanse and Charge Other Crystals

Let's start this post off with a little definition of the two terms, charging and cleansing.

Cleansing is the removal of negative or unwanted energies from an object, in this case crystals. Charging is enhancing or activating the energy of crystals and/or adding intention to them. Some people believe this is b.s. and that crystals don't need to be charged, that is up to you to decide what you believe about this.

So how do you cleanse or charge your crystals without breaking the bank? Even though selenite is a very affordable crystal, Sometimes you'll see aesthetic social media posts of crystals charging in beautiful selenite bowls which is lovely but can be pricey. To get the same effect, simply take any piece of selenite you have, select the crystals you wish to work with. And place them in a bowl, on a plate, or wherever. Just make sure they are close to the selenite and that's it, you're done, no fancy crystal bowl needed. I have also heard some people say that a crystal only needs to be within three feet of an object to affect it, once again, that is for you to decide whether that works for you or not.

Note: I know there are other ways of cleansing and charging, this is not me saying any of those ways are wrong, this is just one way.
