It seems we are slipping back, to a time of witchcraft and scapegoating.
Take note of who they try to 'other', and don't assume that you are next.
No greater horror than a true story.

"Men are rarely considered to be witches because they are not expected to caretake, to fawn, to smile, all of which I have failed to do. I come from a long line of witches who failed to appease the suburban beast and who were isolated and scapegoated, tarred and feathered, condemned as temptresses and accused of being histrionic. If the people of Mount Pelion Way could weigh me against a stack of Bibles and drown, hang, or burn me at the stake, they would."
