Not to mention torture was often the women’s work and they took to it with zeal

Comanches to Iroquois

The women were cruel to captives

[BlueLancer]

When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.

The Young British Soldier
Rudyard Kipling

I lost a liberal best friend over the Anasazi.

She saw them as sage, mystical, enlightened nobles.

And then I sent her the video about them ‘disappearing’, not because they had somehow “ascended” but because they all killed and ate each other during a prolonged famine.

Truth is a bitch.
