The term "Witch hunt" refers to a phenomenon where individuals or a group of people are unfairly persecuted or targeted based on their beliefs, practices, or affiliations. Witch hunts have been a recurring theme throughout history and have taken various forms depending on the specific context. The concept of witch hunts has roots in medieval Europe, where individuals, primarily women, who were accused of practicing witchcraft were subjected to trials and often executed. These accusations were often based on superstitions, religious beliefs, or personal grudges. The most infamous witch hunt in history, known as the Salem witch trials, occurred in colonial Massachusetts in 1692. Mass hysteria and paranoia led to the execution of twenty people who were accused of witchcraft.
$\begingroup$ Void of any any explanation, void is no more an answer than cheese. I think it is the justification that makes this its own answer. $\endgroup$
The selection here is made through the one which seems to make the most sense within the context of these 3 main sources light, darkness and redacted , with redacted being normally considered as above superior to the previous 2. Your reputation will plumet to the worst level, get dark Master, then go to a temple and donate, over and over and you will soon have a mediocre good rep, and will retain both Master levels.
Mass hysteria and paranoia led to the execution of twenty people who were accused of witchcraft. The accusations were fueled by religious extremism and fear of the unknown. Witch hunts are not limited to historical events; they continue to occur in modern society, albeit in different forms.
MM6: Light & Dark spells: best/worst?

I've just gotten my characters up to the point where my Light & Dark Magic
skills are high enough to be somewhat useful (14 and 13, respectively,
with mastery), and I'm wondering which spells people have found most
worthwhile.
Some spells just don't seem worth the high casting cost. Shrapmetal has
never impressed me, for example. Doing 1-4 (or is it 1-6? I don't have
the docs or the game handy right now) per level in the spell isn't nearly
as good as Acid Burst or Implosion.
Even worse are the single-target non-damage spells like Paralyze, Slow, or
Shrinking. This is something I've noticed in other games as well:
There's no point in using spells like these against lower-level monsters
that you can simply kill with weapons or damage spells, and higher-level
monsters tend to be immune to them.
Does Mass Curse even do anything? I've cast it on groups of monsters, and
nothing seemed to happen. If I can't tell the difference between a spell
failing or working, I'm not likely to use it.
Golden Touch seems useless if you've got a Master Merchant in the party,
and I can't remember the last time I needed food badly enough to use
Create Food.
I have found Day of the Gods, Hour of Power, Sun Ray, Dragon Breath,
Prismatic Light, and Day of Protection to be useful (I ended up setting PL
as my auto-spell in the big room in the Superior Temple of Baa).
On a side note, I vaguely remember reading something about an upper limit
on spell effects. That there was no point to raising a spell skill
above a certain number because it no longer added dice/points to damage
spells. This isn't true, is it? My mage is up to 17 Fire Magic and I'd
hate to be throwing points away adding to this.

In my games I usually go the good route and limit my dark to Expert which does not have a rep requirement. In MM7 it is a pure choice, the party can either go light or dark and in MM8 it is easy to get both to the GM level if both a Cleric and Sorcerer are in the party.
In recent years, there has been a rise in online witch hunts, where individuals are targeted for their opinions or actions on social media platforms. This form of witch hunt often involves public shaming, harassment, and even job loss. The 2020 United States presidential election witnessed claims of a "witch hunt" by former President Donald Trump, who repeatedly expressed his belief that he was unfairly targeted by the media and political opponents. This usage of the term reflects the idea that someone is being unjustly pursued or persecuted. Overall, witch hunts symbolize a dark aspect of human behavior where fear, ignorance, and prejudice can lead to the persecution of innocent individuals. While some witch hunts may be based on genuine concerns, many are driven by irrationality and mob mentality. Understanding the history and implications of witch hunts can help society recognize and combat this destructive phenomenon..
Reviews for "The Intersection of Politics and Witch Hunts in 2020"
1. John - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Watch Hunt 202q". The plot was so confusing and convoluted that I couldn't even keep track of what was happening. The characters were poorly developed and lacked depth, making it hard for me to care about their fates. Additionally, the pacing was all over the place, with some scenes dragging on for too long while others were rushed. Overall, it felt like a waste of time and I wouldn't recommend it.
2. Emily - 1 star - "Watch Hunt 202q" was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The acting was unbelievably bad, and I couldn't help but cringe at the awkward dialogue and wooden performances. The special effects were laughable, and it was clear that no effort was put into making them look realistic. The storyline was also incredibly predictable, with all the twists and turns being incredibly cliché. I honestly can't understand how anyone could enjoy this film.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "Watch Hunt 202q" but it fell flat on so many levels. The writing was weak and the dialogue felt forced and cheesy. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked any real depth. I also found the action sequences to be poorly choreographed and unexciting. The whole film just felt like a generic and uninspired attempt at a thriller. Overall, it was a forgettable experience for me.
4. Michael - 2 stars - I was really looking forward to "Watch Hunt 202q" but found it to be a huge disappointment. The plot was confusing and hard to follow, with multiple subplots that were never fully explained. The pacing was also off, with the film dragging on at some points and rushing through others. The dialogue felt forced and unnatural, and the performances lacked emotion and depth. It's a shame because the concept had potential, but the execution fell short.
