    I loathe Wicca too. It was literally a sex cult ran by a pedophile in how it was formed. Then it became entrenched with pop culture through the 80s and 90s (Stevie Nicks I think claimed to be in it at one point). Wicca is one of those "religions" that you can make into anything, which is how it's evolved so much through pop culture. Back in the 90s, the movie 'The Craft' had a lot to do with pushing it to a new generation and there was another witch movie from the 90s that had Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, I can't think of the name, but that movie also pushed a lot of it too.

      i didn't know this. my partner dabbled with it when a teen and then abandoned it for straight neopaganism until it became infested with nazis and she accidently dated a cryptofash lol.
