🤬 Misogyny accusations of witchcraft (like the Salem witch trials (not a myth, they actually happened)) were almost exclusively directed at women, perhaps because women in the past were seen as powerless, so if a woman suddenly appears to have power it must be witchcraft, magic, right?
🤬 miscellaneous xenophobia directed against literally any group (they're eating your pets!)
The list goes on, but you get the point.
And our greatest hate monger today is Donald Trump.
