Please do a Dolly Parton / Patsy Cline / Dusty Springfield vibe playlist. I know it’s not your usual genre but I love them and I love your composures!

It took me a while to get to, (apologies for that,) but I did it! I hope you enjoy the edit and the playlist, and thanks for the request.

White witches are not persecuted. Modern witchcraft among white people is not what women were persecuted for during witchcraft trials. You being judged by monotheistic religions has nothing to do with the mass executions of innocent people, largely women, well before even your grandparents were born. I hate to tell you but most of those women didn’t practice witchcraft. They were considered witches or under “the devil’s spell” because of sickly partners, the death of their infants, false accusations by people who didn’t like them, etc. You don’t have centuries of generational trauma when the “oppression” of white witches is extremely modern.

Also, not for nothing, but it's probably worth remembering that an awful lot of the people who were burned and oppressed for supposed witchcraft were actually Jews.

White (culturally Christian) witches are very into rewriting history to place themselves on the pyres, when in reality, their ancestors were the ones who formed the mobs, often specifically against ethnic minorities. Oppression isn't a game or a costume, and some of us are still actually harmed by the religious bigotry of these institutions. And honestly, it's a slap in the face to hear white witches throw around terms like "generational trauma", without even bothering to consider that some of us learned that our ancestors were burned at the stake from the Yizkor prayer for martyrs at our synagogues on Yom Kippur – not in a hot take citationless wiccan blog post written in 2015.

You're not "the descendant of the witches they couldn't burn" – you're a descendant of the bigots who did the burning, and you need to unlearn just as much racism and bigotry as the rest of white Christendom does.

This. This is the one.

Since the Hated Website is pushing Prime Day again, I thought I’d draw attention to the fact that Bookshop.org, the so-called Rebel Alliance to Amazon’s evil Empire, is currently offering free shipping today and tomorrow (June 21st and 22nd) as a counteroffensive. So if there are any books you’ve had your eye on, consider supporting an indie bookstore through them this week!

for some reason that link above goes through facebook. if you want to avoid that, try this one instead: bookshop.org (or type it in your browser!)
