Never read much on the Salem Witch trials but this Tituba girl sounds rad as fuck if she could actually summon a demon.

It's alarming how easy misinformation is in the internet era.

Next thing you know, there might be a campaign to say that Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by Nathaniel Bedford Forrest. (And anyone who believed it would probably see him as a hero.)

So she confessed to... a bunch of things that literally cannot happen in reality? And that confession is meant to be reliable?

And let's not forget that confession most likely came after being tortured.

Tituba was like the only PoC in a village full of bloodthirsty racist puritans (redundant?). She would've been the first to die if she didn't tell those assholes exactly what they wanted to hear, and she knew it.

That said, this is the typical ethnocentrism of dominionists. "Anything I don't believe is witchcraft. It's different when Jesus was doing the dupe glitch on the fish in the basket."

The circumstances of the confession aren't even a factor when the confession itself is literally impossible to be true.

Don't get me wrong, the circumstances are awful, but they're not needed to establish that the confession is not reliable.

In a "trial" where the only proof that could exist would be the claims of the victim.

The loonier sections of the Christian right have been pushing the "There were witches in Salem actually" for a while now.

Yep, she initially denied the allegations and then confessed after being beaten.

In 1642, witchcraft was a capital offense punishable by death in the Colony of Connecticut.

'If any man or woman be a witch, that is, has or consults with a familiar spirit, they shall be put to death,' read the Massachusetts body of laws. This law appears in the General Laws and Liberties of Massachusetts Bay, Chapter XVIII, Acts Respecting Capital Crimes, Section 2

Youd think the people with the power to summon demons would be harder to imprison.

  1. The witch trials were incredibly traumatic experiences, with many people confessing just to make the interrogations stop or get out of being hanged. One person in question died during the interrogation when he was pressed to death. He went out that way because law at the time said that if you died without a conviction you were innocent so your family could inherit everything.
  2. They actually had trials, it's not just a name, and far more accused were found innocent than not. The charges were bullshit but they followed their legal process to the letter.
  3. Witches and demons are obviously not real. If anyone thinks someone is genuinely guilty of summoning a demon they need to get checked into a psych ward. In the middle ages, you'd be hanged by the inquisition for heresy for thinking witchcraft was real.
