  Wendigo (/ˈwɛndɪɡoʊ/) is a mythological creature or evil spirit originating from Algonquian folklore. The concept of the wendigo has been widely used in literature and other works of art, such as social commentary and horror fiction.

  It’s not racism to assume the creature that is canonically evil in the indigenous culture that created it 😅

    I’ve seen old writings that say much the same about black people. Just because it’s written down something is evil doesn’t make that true. I haven’t met many Wendigos, so I reserve my right to judge them until I do.

    I’d see a human searching for Wendigos to rape and upon not finding a handy orifice carving one with a hunting knife to stick his dick in as being a clear and obvious evil. I have met humans like that. I’m very willing to judge them.

        It’s extremely difficult to conclusively prove a thing doesn’t exist.
