History teacher says Incan human sacrifice method was ‘kind’ and if you don’t agree, you’ve had a woefully ‘white’ education

Can people like this even be brought into the fold of sanity and morality?

History teacher on TikTok says that Incan child sacrifices were “kind” and “voluntary.” Children were merely left to freeze to death, which isn’t so bad when you think about it. She blames white people for having a judgmental view of human sacrifice. pic.twitter.com/PuB26tmVQj — Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) August 5, 2025

The hill she’s going to “die on” is the human-sacrifice-isn’t-all-that-bad hill? Spoken like a committed leftist. She must feel pretty virtuous and anti-racist, rattling off words like “Mochica” and “Tahuantinsuyu” and “Quechua” because she’s sooo educated and multicultural.

In fact, this woman reminds me a lot of my white sister-in-law (also a teacher, God help us) who pronounces “cilantro” like she thinks a native Spanish speaker would, because as a point of pseudo-virtue, she’s a big fan of all things not West and not white—I have to stifle a laugh every time because it’s all so cliché and embarrassing. She’s a very privileged daughter of a surgeon who has the luxury to be a leftist because she lives in America, and her daddy subsidized all her foolish choices through her entire adulthood. Girl, just pronounce “cilantro” like you’re naturally inclined to as a native English-speaker.

Anyway, back to this woman.

She flippantly mocks people who take issue with her thoughts, brushing off their staunchly anti-human sacrifice opinions as “indicative of the fact that … [they] have received a quite, white education….” (White guilt has been a very destructive ideology.)

“They [the Quechua people] practiced sacrifices, like most other civilizations throughout history did….” Except which one lady? Oh that’s right, white biblically-based Christians, that’s who. She inadvertently points out that West is best because it doesn’t believe in any kind of human sacrifice.

In that case, lynching was “kind” too.

You can’t educate the stupid out of a Democrat.

#otd 4 December 1829 – In the face of fierce local opposition, British Governor-General Lord William Bentinck issues a regulation declaring that anyone who abets suttee (Sati) in Bengal is guilty of culpable homicide.

The spelling suttee is a phonetic spelling using 19th-century English orthography.

Sati was a historical practice in which a widow sacrifices herself by sitting atop her deceased husband's funeral pyre. Although it is debated whether it received scriptural mention in early Hinduism, it has been linked to related Hindu practices in the Indo-Aryan-speaking regions of India which diminished the rights of women, especially those to the inheritance of property.

A cold form of sati, or the neglect & casting out of Hindu widows, has been prevalent from ancient times. Greek sources from around 300 BCE make isolated mention of sati, but it probably developed into a real fire sacrifice in the medieval era within the northwestern Rajput clans to which it initially remained limited, to become more widespread during the late medieval era.

During the early-modern Mughal period of 1526–1857, it was notably associated with elite Hindu Rajput clans in western India, marking one of the points of divergence between Hindu Rajputs & the Muslim Mughals, who banned the practice.

In the early 19th century, the British East India Company, in the process of extending its rule to most of India, initially tolerated the practice; William Carey, a British Christian evangelist, noted 438 incidents within a 30-mile radius of the capital, Calcutta, in 1803, despite its ban within Calcutta. Between 1815 & 1818 the number of incidents of sati in Bengal doubled from 378 to 839.

Opposition to the practice of sati by evangelists like Carey, & by Hindu reformers such as Ram Mohan Roy ultimately led the British Governor-General of India Lord William Bentinck to enact the Bengal Sati Regulation, 1829, declaring the practice of burning or burying alive of Hindu widows to be punishable by the criminal courts. Other legislation followed, countering what the British perceived to be interrelated issues involving violence against Hindu women, including the Hindu Widows' Remarriage Act, 1856, Female Infanticide Prevention Act, 1870, & Age of Consent Act, 1891. Ram Mohan Roy observed that when women allow themselves to be consigned to the funeral pyre of a deceased husband it results not just "from religious prejudices only", but, "also from witnessing the distress in which widows of the same rank in life are involved, & the insults & slights to which they are daily subject."

Isolated incidents of sati were recorded in India in the late-20th century, leading the Indian government to promulgate the Sati (Prevention) Act, 1987, criminalising the aiding or glorifying of sati. The modern laws have proved difficult to implement; as of 2020, at least 250 sati temples existed in India in which prayer ceremonies, or pujas, were performed to glorify the avatar of a mother goddess who immolated herself on a husband's funeral pyre after hearing her father insult him; prayers were also performed to the practice of a wife immolating herself alive on a deceased husband's funeral pyre.

Don’t care, “teacher” in the article...

Not all educations are equal.

Only idiots make people feel bad or inadequate based on their race. The “teacher” provided irrefutable proof, believing they were virtue flexing.

This reminds me of the “PhD” anthropologist who caved to the wild wacky world of wokeness and stated that there are no differences between male and female skeletons. When he said that, there were quite a few chuckles in the crowd. He could not handle the laughing, so he went on to make a bigger fool of himself by insisting that “since he has a PhD, you cannot argue or contradict him.” Then, even more laughing occurred.

If ever there was a example of

Let's see HER volunteer to go out in the freezing cold underdressed.

Like there's a merciful way to kill someone.....

Evil, Satan (or at least demon) possessed individual.

If it’s so merciful then she shouldn’t have any problem with it being used as the death penalty, should she?

Of course. Because we all know the world was perfect when only men control the government.

The Left grows more dangerous every day. They cannot be allowed to be in power ever again.

I would love to be a fly on the wall at the Thanksgiving table of Author Olivia Murray. The take down of her SIL was epic.
