I’m 33 and American. This myth is so widespread here I didn’t know the truth until I was TWENTY-NINE. I was literally taught something similar IN COLLEGE—that the Puritans were so reactionary in America as a result of what happened to them in England. And this was in a class about the history of witchcraft accusations and the Salem witch trials. Like, we were taught that they were horrible HERE, but the narrative was still that they faced injustice in England.
This wasn’t a stupid teacher, either. She had her first doctorate and was pursuing a second. Basically everything else I learned in that class checks out. The myth just runs THAT DEEP.
Yep. :/
This thread got me watching this BBC documentary on Oliver Cromwell and I highly recommend it anyone else who also had no idea.

what am I supposed to do in a club. I go in them often but never know what to do, it ends up being extremely confusing. What do people do in them??

you may not have the clubber’s temperament. perhaps your place is on the battlefield
People tend to forget that we are also animals. We are not separate from nature, we are just as much a part of it as the birds that nest outside our windows.
Take some time today to focus on your place in the natural ecosystem around you. Give an offering to the local nature spirits if you can
