Screw "romans" My history hyperfixation is how "witches" were invented because the church knew that "they were evil" and the church hated how "boiling you water" and "cleaning your home" and "owning cats to eat rats and avoid fleas" and "herbal remedies for illness" and "cleaning your body" and "living alone as a woman" all made you "healthy" and they also hated how "women who weren't part of the church generally didnt perscribe to a standard catholic rule lifestyle, which meant they didn't tithe" but more importantly, it's like so gross that this woman is living alone like what is she doing all alone in that house? "Learning to read?" like, EWW GROSS, you didn't die young and now you are ugly and have warts? BURN THE WITCH!!!
#witches#witchblr#the church#history#txt#this is very nearly a gross misrepresentation of the history.#but c'mon its so compelling#also depictions of witches. like. the hooked nose? those are probably rooted in antisemetism like goblins.#for the most part if a charicature involves a hooked/big nose. moles. and big ears. and its european. its probably rooted in antisemetism
