      It’s a metaphor. You use brooms to sweep out the trash. If you’re going to assault someone a broom isn’t a great weapon.

        We are getting close to the day when fascist will need to be deposed or they will start killing us.

        Use of violence is inherent to any fascist regime, it is a matter of time before they come for you.

          Only one side cares about “inciting violence” and it’s the only side that has actual need of it.

          Until the left accepts that violence IS the answer sometimes, we will always be massacred.

            Apparently that sort of thinking makes you a teenager with no world experience. At least that’s what I’ve been told I sound like.

            The moral high road is filled with corpses.

      I’m very familiar with this community—they should migrate over here.

      They’re witches. Of all different types of craft. A broom is something a witch rides or flies on in popular culture.

      It’s saying that witches can survive against fascism if they band together in their covens and use their witchcraft.

      Or, more simply, if they stand together in their faith then they will survive together.

      Witches don’t actually fly on broomsticks or hit people with broomsticks. They’re just normal people. It’s slightly in jest.

        I don’t like my witch unless she is carrying a giant broomstick and wants to “hit” me with it. It’s just more sexy that way.
