1	Debunking historical misconceptions used to demonize men: Salem Witch Trials It's not a lie to give more insight. It's common belief and common sense that the girls were clearly being led by their parents either by coercion or simply through following their lead on who in town they did not like. The audacity of you people coming up in here arguing with simple facts and then posting a Wikipedia link as if it proves a historian wrong when I can literally edit that page right now is hilarious.	/r/MensRights	18/07/21 02:29 PM
0	Debunking historical misconceptions used to demonize men: Salem Witch Trials Historians base their ideas on evidence and research. If you want to read the transcripts of the actual Salem witch trials they're on the University of Virginia's website.

The fact is you're getting all your information through other sources instead of primary resources.	/r/MensRights	15/07/21 02:41 PM

-1	Debunking historical misconceptions used to demonize men: Salem Witch Trials No... They were the result of a myriad of social, political, and economic issues. Witch hunts and witch trials happen all throughout history at times when there's no women to blame. Also - what about mob mentality? Your argument is it was literally just people trusting a few kids? You don't think mob dynamics had anything to do with it?	/r/MensRights	14/07/21 07:01 AM

-2	Debunking historical misconceptions used to demonize men: Salem Witch Trials The Witch Trials were quite literally started by grown adult men. The narrative that it was the young girls spun from the middle of the 1900s is largely a result of Arthur Miller's fictional account of the witch trials The crucible. I could go on and on trying to explain these things to you but as I said before clearly you don't want to learn.	/r/MensRights	14/07/21 05:27 AM

-5	Debunking historical misconceptions used to demonize men: Salem Witch Trials Hello, professional Salem historian here. Just a few things: Firstly we can see by looking at all of the evidence that every single man that was accused in Salem and 1692 it was because they were defending a woman. Secondly, the main cause of the Salem witch trials was the religious fanaticism of the Puritans which included the concept that women were not allowed to own land.
