1 | The West Burned Women Alive. Then Called Us Misogynists.
They call Sati barbaric. But they forget the systematic genocide of women in Europe — the witch-hunts.
Tens of thousands tortured and burnt alive by the Church.
Let’s rip apart this racist colonial narrative of Sati and their nauseating hypocrisy.

Europe’s Feminist Holocaust: Witch-Hunts, Torture Manuals & Bonfires
From 1400s–1700s, 40,000–60,000 people were executed as witches across Europe.
“All witchcraft comes from carnal lust, which is in women insatiable.” -Malleus Maleficarum, 1487
Torture, forced confessions, stripping, branding.
Burned alive.
Women. Girls. Healers.

3 | Bonfires of the ‘Holy’ Inquisition
Czech Republic: Still celebrates "Witch-Burning Night" (Pálení Čarodějnic).
Sweden, 1675: 71 people beheaded & burned in one day in Torsåker — 65 of them were women.
Children accused their own mothers.
Girls as young as 9 were executed.
This isn’t history. It’s horror.

: This is just a reminder of how Christianity became so popular today.
During the reign of Charlemagne, women were impaled on sharpened poles put in the vagina.
Slowly, over days, the pole would travel the length of the body through the organs, causing tremendous pain, simply because a woman was found collecting herbs in the forest. She was labelled a witch.
Their screams could be heard for days as an example to those who would not accept the foreign faith. Christianity became so popular because of sheer terror of what would happen if it wasn't accepted. And people think the Nazis were horrible.)

4 | Sanctioned by Church, Driven by State
Pope Innocent VIII issued the bull Summis Desiderantes (1484):
"Many persons of both sexes...have abandoned themselves to devils."
Church courts + state judges = mass murder.
Germany: over 25,000 women burnt.
There was no escape — just the flames.

5 | Hindu Scriptures: No Sanction for Sati. No Death for Widows.
Mahabharata: Widows praised for rebuilding life.
Manusmriti: Widow must be protected, not burned.
Yajnavalkya: Wives = “Gifts of the gods.”
Nowhere — nowhere — do Hindu shastras prescribe Sati.
Unlike the West, we worship women.

6 | Sati: Rare, Regional, and Misused by Missionaries
Historian Meenakshi Jain exposes the lies:
1815–1824, all of British India = 6,632 Sati cases.
Of these, 5,997 (90%) in Bengal.
Other regions? Fewer than 50 cases per year.
A rare, tragic act — inflated by missionaries to justify conversions.

7 | Not Sacrifice, But Protection: The Jauhar of Rajput Women
Sati wasn't about religion. Sometimes it was Jauhar — a response to invaders who raped & enslaved women.
Rajput women self-immolated en masse to avoid hell.
Savarkar records entire villages, men and women, jumping into fire to escape Islamic brutality.
Death before dishonour.

8 | Ahilyabai Holkar: Widow, Warrior, NOT a Sati
When her husband died, Ahilyabai Holkar was told to commit Sati.
She REFUSED.
She went on to become one of Bharat’s greatest rulers, revered to this day.
No priest condemned her.
Because Sati was never compulsory.

9 | Their Burnings Were Systematic. Ours Were Isolated.
Sati victims: 64% were over 40.
No mass harems. No child brides thrown into fire.
In 98% of cases, the woman went alone.
Voluntary.
Europe?
Thousands of women tortured by law, stripped, pricked with needles, burnt alive.

10 | Colonial Propaganda: Brown Man’s Burden Built on White Lies
British missionaries sensationalised Sati.
Fabricated cases.
Used it to raise funds and “civilise” Hindus.
All while their grandmothers had JUST stopped being burned in Europe.
The hypocrisy is nauseating.

11 | The Real Misogyny Wore a Cross
Christian Europe:
Manual for torturing women (Malleus)
Church + state executions
300 years of legal, gendered violence
Hindu India:
No religious code for Sati
Condemned by voices within the society
Women like Ahilyabai revered
So who’s civilised?

Why does ChatGPT write like this kek

The difference is that westerns no longer do that

Maybe it escaped you, but europeans called the sati barbaric when they had long stopped burning witches.

India is still hunting witches
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witch_hunts_in_India
>Severe violence is commonly used to punish accused witches and can include rape, beating, flogging and severing of limbs. Furthermore, 'witches' can be mentally and emotionally abused through ostracism, banishment, hounding and public humiliation.[2]
>>
>>18110750
because of the british colonial influence
>>
>>18110751
>Witch-hunting in India is an ancient practice spanning back many centuries with references to dayans (witches) being found in several early Sanskrit works.
>It was also believed that more women were killed as witches than those who died through the practice of Sati.[9]
>British authorities implemented several bans on witch-killing between the 1840s and 60s throughout Eastern India.

brutish propaganda

>>18110765
>According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) of India, from 2000 to 2016, over 2,500 people had been killed in witch hunts, overwhelmingly women.[5][6][7] This number is estimated to be even higher, as many cases go unreported.

The Church didn't do a lot of witch hunting. It was more of a protestant thing.
>>
Stop pretending to be a pajeet just to make them look worse than they already are.
>>
>>18110920
The catholic church pretty much did not acknowledge the existence of witches, but hunts also happened in catholic countries in full defiance of church decrees. Like in Polamd, where the deluge decades were full of hunts and constant episcopal proclamations against the practice going unheard.

it's a matter about whiteness
it's not a coincidence that the swarthiest countries (spain, ireland, italy) did not burn witches

shitloads of men were killed in witch hunts as well, people only focus on the women because murdering women is seen as worse than murdering men
>>

there was a shitload of witch hunting/witchcraft killings in the new world, its just not discussed because native americans arent seen as human

Witch hunts in Nepal are crazy. Hindus burning witches under a Maoist government, just insane anachronisms all around
