They don't call it witchcraft but they absolutely love the supernatural bullshit. Any feminist who truly believes the more ridiculous claims of feminism like "women are stronger than men" inevitably gets pulled into other beliefs that are contradicted by reality. You don't identify as a witch or wiccan until long after you have accepted a lot of those beliefs one by one. It all starts off with manipulation techniques, then the idea that feelings have power or are more than just your own personal experience, then that you can manifest things by saying or believing them, until ultimately you are chanting spells.
It's hard to believe because no almost "witch" or wiccan is public about it. The vast majority of those who believe in horoscopes, taro cards, alternative medicine, auras and "energy", or manifesting even consider that stuff witchcraft. But when you realize what is going on there really is no other way to describe it.
