So you're telling me they were all larping? That can't be the case. There were different systems, schools, western, eastern, voodoo, nordic, celtic, shamanic, kabbalistic, babylonian, egyptian, christian, islamic etc etc. They can't all be fake. I do realize people practice til this day but it's not as normalized as it was before. Back then you had witches and sorcerers literally working for kings' courts. Having established that, I guess it begs the question:Does belief by itself make something real? So was magick real to the people of old because they believed so? And is magick fake and gay to us because we believe so?
>>41700721Ditto. People have done it all throughout history like why are they wasting their time on that mumbo jumbo?
>>41700721Probably because it created a parallel society with a made-up hierarchy in which betas could actually climb without actually doing anything of value in a mainstream way.
>>41700721Carnival gypsys is about what that was, primitive superstitious peasant/villagers are suckers for magic showsNow this video has some real mysterieshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u29PgfoES70
>>41700721hundreds of millions are practicing magic today.>but it's not as normalizedMy man, we got people making machines to carve out sumerian demon sigils using light, traced with gold afterwards, utilizing quartz crystals to turn the purest form of energy we have in this world into a golem to do our bidding.
>>41700721>possibly millionsmaybe even billions, trillions? Why stop now
>>41700721It's real but the Reptilians have encased Earth is a grid that blocks the astral frequencies (magic) from reaching us and in the past 200 years they've absolutely PERFECTED it and there is now pretty much no escape. Magic of the wildest kind used to be real, the Greek Gods were literally real.
and why stop there? why unicorns are fake? all you can fell with senses are real, but you can't touch digital art, how much you can materialize an idea? if ideas are fake, everything points to the fact that unicorns are real ._.
>>41700721>thousands and possibly millionsI'm gonna need you to clarify aa lot of what you think was going on in the middle ages. Not everyone was doing magic, most went to a local magician to do it for them. Same as nowadays, you're likely to go to a fortune teller than scatter bones or read the cards on your own (then again, this is /x/, so concentration is higher).>>41700987>why unicorns are fake?Good news, they're not. Earliest accounts of unicorns occur in books of natural history. Likeliest candidate is the Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), which has a single horn.That said, for a while in the 20th century, there were some goats bred and surgically altered to grow single horns. True unicorns lived!
>>41700721>how can eating shit be a bad thing when a billion indians do it in current year
>>41700721All the shits aboud them flying around and shenanigans might just because they accidentally created hallucinogenic substances and dosed themselves.
