Orishas
African studies of Black Gods and Goddesses. It is a native religion to the Yoruba people. It originated in Africa and then spread to Cuba. The origin of this study was organically developed and secretly taught by Black slaves–from the early of times when the slave trade and imprisonment of Blacks was established by Colonialism. The Orishas relates to Black Magic and Black Witchcraft, which is why it is so controversial to some because the origin of this study is strongly criminalized by traditional institutions that sprung off of American patriotism and systemic racism. The creation of Orishas was taught and popularized by Black ancestors. It was important to them because it was used to aid and guide them by spirit and soul during the slave trades and cruel treatment of Blacks. This threaten the White Brothers, as the African Brothers and Sisters would seek freedom from their spirited guides and angels. Christianity was the only socially acceptable choice of Faith. Anything other than that–spoke to outsiders of the Magic World as “psychotic” and “criminal” except it was the similar teachings of the Orishas, and it was stripped of its influence during the Colonial times.
Colonialism has negatively impacted the influence of Orishas by deeming it as bad spirituality and casting people off as“kooks” who use it as a spirit tool for generational transformation and fighting against systemic oppression

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
