Summary

This thread uses historical witch trial terminology to argue that female social contagions (like recent TikTok trends) can be addressed by distinguishing between deluded women and malevolent actors spreading harmful influence, analogous to Johann Weyer's differentiation between melancholic women and poisoners.

Summarized by ThreadOut AI from the full thread. May miss nuance — read the thread below.

  1. #1

    There is a proven way to kill a social contagion infecting the female mass mind. Identify the malignant subspecies, delineate and expose it. This is how the "witch panic" was ended. Thread-

  2. #2

    Johann Weyer, the famous "skeptic" credited with ending the witch trials, understood that witchcraft [foid aggression] was real. His solution rested on differentiating the melancholic women from the venefica- those dealing in esoteric poisons.

    The lamia is the deluded melancholic woman whose corrupted imaginatio Satan has invaded. Her confession of night-flight, coupling with incubi, metamorphosis—all symptoms of a humoral disturbance, not evidence of malefica.

    The venefica is the poisoner who inflicts demonstrable material harm through natural means. By "poison" he also included flying-ointment recipes, which he codified: belladonna, henbane, Datura, mandrake, hemlock, wolfsbane, all containing atropine, hyoscyamine, and scopolamine.

    Now that transing boys is out of fashion, bored TikTok moms are vulnerable to a new social contagion. The agent behind this is the venefica using the "flying ointment" of the short-form scrolling format, which triggers dissociation, time distortion, and passive flow states.

  6. #6

    The Hag-type is trying to build a moral technology for child murder by externalizing the blame onto "the medical establishment" or onto "men," which signify "the beast" in progressive symbolism. It's basically the modern, algorithmic version of an "esoteric poison."

  7. #7

    The majority of women at risk of being funneled into the contagion are just bored, insecure, sexually frustrated housewives. But there's a clear difference between those confessing to Satanic compacts (I believe Lindsay Clancy is innocent) and the venefica distributing poison.

  8. #8

    Which ones are the child murderers, which are hysterics? Peel away the confusion between hysteric signaling and the disordered desire to consume child flesh. Identify and isolate the type. Anatomizing the mass psychosis like this sterilizes its routes of contagion.

    This can be rhetorically reduced to "Which woman have obvious hag physiognomy and which just need their backs blown out?"
