![Occult Content Creators, Negativity, Community: Joey and Bell Chat [Part 2]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Xz2JolFQxiE/hqdefault.jpg "Occult Content Creators, Negativity, Community: Joey and Bell Chat [Part 2]
What do occult content creators do when they’re in quarantine? We get online and chat with each other by video, of course. This is Part 2 of a conversation that I had with Celtic priestess, creatrix, and daughter of The Morrigan, Joey Morris.
If you haven’t seen Part 1 yet, then you’re going to want to hop over to her channel to watch that first.

TIMESTAMPS
00:21 Backlash when an occultist shares their personal gnosis with the public; The irony of telling others their experience with deity is “wrong” (sharing a Chinese cultural standpoint)
02:54 Joey adding to that rationale by sharing about the spread and evolution of Celtic beliefs
05:51 The irony of marginalized witches looking at history, which is written by those who suppress them, to verify their own modern practices
06:60 Balancing history of religious practice with how those practices and beliefs evolve
07:30 Why occult content creators aren’t sharing videos about their personal experiences with spirit
10:15 Joey sharing the emotional toll of putting out raw, vulnerable content and getting trolled for it; the fallacy of assuming your negative comment doesn’t bother popular content creators; why Benebell doesn’t like it when people say you just need to grow thicker skin
16:48 The spiritual ramifications of occult content creators dealing with negativity online
19:20 Fallacy of the “shared personal gnosis”
21:15 The entanglement between “shared personal gnosis” and savvy branding/marketing; the occultists who become prominent and those who don’t gain popular traction all reduce down to branding and marketing; when content creators go “off brand”
22:40 The branding and marketing that mold public perception of what witchcraft is; witchcraft aesthetics
24:57 The internally generated tension between “dark” witchcraft and “light” witchcraft (using those as terms of convenience only); arguments of morality, good vs. evil in the witchcraft community
26:01 The “real witch” argument; community shaming of pagans and witches who charge money; Bell’s observation that those judgments are very Christian influenced and are not as prevalent in cultures where Abrahamic morality doesn’t dominate
28:01 The irony of witches rejecting any physical trace of Christian belief in witchcraft but judge each other with Christian ideologies
29:38 When witch wars happen and their negativity cycles
31:00 All the great occult content creators leaving YouTube
34:59 Self-censorship and filtering driven by the fear element of not wanting to invite negativity, resulting in less creativity; when people downplay the emotional harm of trolling and ask content creators, “Why do you care so much about what people think of you?”
38:55 Acknowledging the power other people may have over you is not weakness; how the current covid-19 pandemic shows that; contrasting that with the self-fulfilling prophecy of where we believe power resides is where power resides")
