It must be so hard to be so suspicious all the time, it’s like a game of among us except there’s no imposter and everybody has paranoia.

Left handedness was badly frowned upon even during the 70s. While very few people would accuse you of witchcraft, a lot still thought it had demonic ties. My sister faved a lot of abuse from teachers and was forced to write with her right hand.

How to not be a witch:
1. Don't do anything
2. Don't let stuff near you do anything
3. Just don't

I have a giant birth mark on my neck, and I'm left-handed, so I would be screwed

As a cat lover, that cat part really hurt my soul. Especially when i remember some people still think black cat is bad luck 😭

Basically, if you breathe a little too much, you're a witch.

[Luca-gcpz]

People must've been allergic to logic

Person in the middle ages: *does anything above average
Everyone: W I T C H

That left handed sentiment lingered for a while. My grandfather grew up in Mexico in a religious school. Turns out, he was born a lefty. So his teachers would beat him until he learned to use his right hand. He still writes with his right, but on the few occasions he does use his left, his handwriting is somehow more neat.

The 15th century was the "don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious" sound affect.

"Hey guys i thi-"
*"WITCH"*

I’ve been called a witch before. Worked at McDonald’s and we ran out of trash bags so they sent me to the store to get some. Was coming out of the store (in my uniform) and this guy stops his car, takes half a step out and starts screaming “witch” at me while pointing. It was broad daylight, everyone was staring. Never felt more second hand embarrassment for someone

Moral of the story:
People were very jealous, I mean very

"Lets get right in to it." Thank you. Thank you for being better than others

As a person with tourette syndrome I often wondered how long it would take for me to be accused of being demon possessed if I was born in medieval times. Sudden weird body movements I couldn't control, cursing out of nowhere (I didn't actually have that symptom, it's actually pretty uncommon among those with tourettes despite what the media would have you believe. I still wondered though.) I'm guessing I would have lasted about 5 seconds.

In Finland, the typical reasons for your neighbor to be a witch were that 1) the frost destroyed your field, 2) your cow stopped milking 3) your buttermilk went bad and 4) your daughter loved their son. Some could also accuse their neighbor of witchcraft if 1) you stubbed your toe, 2) some goods you owned broke, 3) you got sick, and 4) church bells rang by themselves. The church had a hard job to refute the accusations because the Finns dragged each other to witch trials for any reason and only the church could pardon them.

These AI text to speeches are getting way too realistic

[albinogaming]

Medieval people are like if modern-day politicians were superstitious.

[soopofgreatness]

As a lefty, I am personally offended.

I mean, the whole reason people say "bless you" after someone sneezes, is because, apparently, part of your soul exists your body, and once you say "bless you" it puts it back in your body or something.
