Don’t let the name of the podcast fool you...it’s a passive-aggressive poke at the way women seem to be viewed by society: expendable objects to be utilized and quite literally ended, if a perpetrator so chooses..that’s the message that I GET from the lack of action over the entire world, within our societies to protect women and girls. Let’s face it: femocide is on the rise. If you’re anything like me, then you know how important it feels to witness the stories within these cases. To be able to identify patterns of misogyny in our own lives is empowering and can also make us feel more prepared. We will be discussing crimes that include honor killings, intimate partner violence, war crimes, anti-abortion violence..all things caused by misogyny. My hopes are to educate everyone on a safer society because EVERYONE lives in society. I’m neurodivergent af and am doing this podcast alone. Sometimes episodes are late, but i’m doing my best to get them out every other week!

Ep. 13: Witch hunts (yes, still), part 4.a - Getting the band back together
H-Hey guys 😅 I know, I know…it has been a REALLY long time, and on top of that I keep finding more things to add to 'The Many Faces of Patriarchy' witch hunt series that I've been working on here most recently (possibly to some of your dismays)! I hope you all don't mind my side quests..after all, colonialism, authoritarianism, misogyny…they all come from the same place. I just can't stop seeing how MUCH history rhymes.
Last episode, we left off at the lavender scare, with promises for this episode to deliver the so-called "black scare"…to which I am delivering (a part of, as you can see by the 4.a, because I plan to get 4.b out within the week-I PROMISE! It's already nearly done!).
In this episode, we begin by tying the present political violence of America to it's past, which includes the June 2025 assination of democratic lawmaker Melissa Hortman. We then enter into the main part of the episode: the creation of the Counter Intelligence Program. We find that Hoover is up to his old tricks again, including surveillance & illegal operations..but this time he kicks it up a notch, with help from his FBI. Yep, he's getting the band back together, meaning he is widening his sights to include groups considered “other” from parts 1, 2, and 3 of this series. That's right, Hoover's COINTELPRO begins by aiming to further oppress so-called communists & socialists (surprise!), people of color, feminists, Native Americans, AND MORE. Basically, anyone demanding equal rights.
So let's take a little trip into the past, so we can better connect the reasons of how tf we got where we are today. I guess some people think it's boring to learn from history's most horrendous mistakes…
