Finicums Wake posted:imo the question of whether there is an historical through-line from, say, the witches of early modern europe and the american settlers to the people who now call themselves witches is interesting Most of the people I know into that sort of thing tend to be queer and working class. The rationale ranges from "I view mysticism as a sort of self-reflection and system by which I can reorient my mind and will into the direction I desire" to "by lighting these six black candles and burning this poem I wrote, Mitch McConnell will literally fall down and break his balls." It really depends on the person. Honestly a big factor for its popularity in the US almost certainly has to do with the lack of healthcare access. I can't count the number of times I've known people get sick or deal with mental health issues and turn to other friends who will point out some herbal medicine they can try to use until they can actually afford to see a doctor People just want power and a sense of control over their own lives. Whether it's real or just something that eases that drive, people will turn to whatever they can get their hands on to do it
