Slaves chewed and spit the juices of roots near their enslavers secretly to calm the emotions of the slaveholders which prevented whippings. Slaves relied on conjurers to prevent whippings and being sold further South

while discussing what the parasite in chief's idiot hat represents, let us not forget that each and every gem set in the idiot hat is the product of horrific colonization that she personally and materially benefitted from every second of her sickening excuse for a life <3
