Magic is just as real as any other faith, they all exist to the extent that people believe they exist. Keeping up with comic book wizard chat, I'm pretty fond of Alan Moores take on the subject, which I can't find the exact text of right now, but the gist of it is that he wrote a line in From Hell, "The only place that the gods inarguably exist is inside the human mind" and as he wrote it he realized that it was actually true. I agree mostly, these things have power because people believe they do, and they give them power with their own thoughts and beliefs. Like the Devil isn't real but people to this day go through huge amounts of effort behaving like there's actually a red evil dude in the center of the earth. Humans create their gods and devils and breathe life into them until they might as well be real because they are affecting everyone's lives. All magic is, is recognizing that and finding ways to use it to your advantage.

I believe in people, and the power of the human mind, and hope that someday we can collectively realize our power and truly change our world for the better

E: I also smoke a lot of weed

Hey maybe if we all stop believing in climate change it will go away? My relatives are doing their part. :patriot:

Moore's an old-school wizard with grimoires and poo poo, he thinks chaos magick is fakek and for losersk. He also has a magic cave in which he smokes more weed. However much you're imagining, it's more than that.

Iirc Moore completely ignores Morrison at all times. Also he worships a fictional Roman god. As in one the Romans acknowledged making up for a story.

Ah, but does Moore ignore Morrison, or did Morrison succeed in cloaking himself from Moore by spell so he could operate more freely?

The wizard battle narrative is way too good to be false, even if it's not true.

Also, Glycon is a hoax literal glove puppet roman snake god.

We don't need to derail further, but since you chose to respond, a context: my not racist eighth grade science teacher who grew up on a cotton farm, helping her parents pick cotton her whole formative life. She says, now wait a cotton-picken minute.

Since I am not going to choose to die on the hill of, "well ackshully its not racist when..." in a discussion on the internet, I'll leave it at race and power dynamics are a nuanced subject and the history of racism and reconciliation in the South as it applies to language goes a lot deeper than some black and white (pun only kind of intended) reading of any phrase.

P.S. kill whitey, they probably deserve it.

Edit: everything above excludes language and phrases and sterotypes that are born off of specifically singling out groups and/or plays off of existisng racist tropes and/or riff off of clearly established already racist phrases.
