Meta, violence
Considering the most recent racist nonsense I think it's worthwhile to point out the revisionist history that is likely at play when white people are discussing historical human sacrifice
Europeans did a LOT of human sacrifice and also at least up to the Victorian era some of the strangest cannibalism known to have occurred (they ate mummies) it wasn't until "enlightenment" era dickheads invented whiteness that we see the white supremacist lie that Europeans were "enlightened"

Went to see some art yesterday! My favourite pieces were by Jeanne Mammen, who documented the lives of women in Weimar era Berlin, including lesbian subculture. Look at this (bad photo of a) wonderful illustration from 1928, called "She Represents!"
More about her here (cw Nazism, of course): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_Mammen

"Feminism may have provided girls with a powerful alternative to conventional femininity, and a language with which to express the myriad problems-that-have-no-name, but there have been no credible equivalents for boys. Quite the contrary: The definition of masculinity seems to be in some respects contracting."
