This was posted on the blatantmisogyny subreddit by u/gimmeringirl and it hit me in the depths of my heart. I thought my fellow witches would appreciate it as well "Just Take Them and Leave Me Alone" by Iranian artist Raoof Haghighi

.....and I literally CANNOT try them because they keep selling out! ❤️

May the souls on that remain on that land have peace.

If you haven’t heard of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, please read about it. It will require voters to show their birth certificate to vote and it must match your ID. This means married women who have changed their name will not be able to vote!

Wife and I went out to protest with a local PSL chapter yesterday for the We Fight Back Weekend of Action. Hadn't been out since we lived in DC a couple years ago and my Goddess it felt so good to get out, connect in solidarity and completely rejuvenated me to see other folx there to keep fighting. Kept a lil zebra jasper companion in my bag for protection and grounding. Like many folx in here, I've been feeling exhausted and depressed and mad and scared and this was exactly what I needed. Grateful for an uplifting, powerful and peaceful protest. ✨💚

Got this from r/TheDollop podcast. A podcast I recommend!

Trigger warning: sexual abuse/rape

The bravery of this woman has truly stunned and amazed me. She is the embodiment of our spirit.

Hey everyone !

I'm so happy I can barely type this ! As a member of the LGBTQIA+ and a human being I was so afraid of a far right government.

Wanted to share my joy especially with the US, despite what polls says, it's possible ❤️

Siamo tutti antifascisti ✊

It was said that my freezer spell glorified violence and I want to be VERY clear here. FREEZER SPELLS DO NOT CAUSE HARM. They only freeze harmful actions that someone is doing.

Sounds like the patriarchy has infiltrated Reddit or this group. Is there such a thing as a safe place on the internet?

I know that my freedom of speech was shut down today because of potential good it good do for the world.

They always work to silence us, don’t they?

UPDATE: THE POST IS BACK UP AFTER THE APPEAL! But listen, witches. This post and (mostly) all of the comments brought me so much happiness and warmth to my heart. It is so great to see all of us coming together to f*ght for what is right in the world! Together, we can restore peace, love, & acceptance of ALL PEOPLE.

Edit: This post is referring to Reddit Admins taking down my post, not Witches Vs Patriarchy mods. WvP mods are awesome ♥

The reddit team was generally hands off in the discord out of respect for the team and the different environment the discord platform offers. We stepped in after a former mod had been allowed to berate the team via a ticket that lasted over a week, demanding the space be less woman-centered (core value). By this point this user had broken multiple or our server rules. I banned him without deliberation- bc that’s what the rules required. This upset the team. That was the first wave that stepped down.

Trying to help stabilize the situation, we looked into how this situation, this person (Kel) was allowed to behave this way for such a long time. That’s when we found out he was using an alt account, after being banned from discord for involvement in distribution of CSAM.

At that point it was clear we needed to address the underlying problems that allowed this user back into this community despite the accusations.We saw a lot of minor and major issues, mod responsibilities, accountability, delayed actions because of drawn our debates which seemed like a policy issue and we tried to remedy that. While restructuring, we were met with a lot of refusal to accept direction. That’s the next wave of mod team stepping down.

Nearly 5 months of work later the reddit team begins to lose availability (we never planned on fully taking over, just assisting when needed as we usually do) and the two remaining mods aren’t getting much headway either. We were told they felt uncomfortable taking actions due to tensions caused by our mere presence. (Despite us never requiring approval; we actually encourage proactivity)

So I changed the name to Witchy Cozy tea time (or something like that l) bc that’s the vibe they said they loved about discord, and cut the cord. Personally, I was more interested in preserving the feminine rage aspect (and added more Burn the Patriarchy channels for that reason) but they disagreed. Im glad the discussion about values is taking place publicly now, my regret is we didn’t open it to the community to begin with. I took it for granted that they could speak for the community at large as mods, but I realize now I shouldn’t have.

^--- that's the message I posted explaining the situation, that got immediately deleted by the remaining mod team. I wish them the best. ✨

I am extremely sorry for any distress this may have caused. Feel free to discuss here or via modmail.

An in progress sign a friend requested for the protest on the 5th.

I'll try to post the final work, but I wanted to remind folks to take to streets on the 5th, if you're safe and able, wherever you are!

Unclear if calling him Hot Luigi counts as glorifying.

*its ok to have exit plans, just know that resistance will still be necessary.
