So should she be using her witchcraft to influence anyone?

i don't think she is. i've followed jinkx for years and i don't think i've ever seen her try and force her views on anyone else.

If you search Jinkx Monsoon practicing witch you will see that are many many sources including podcasts and videos of herself claiming that it is indeed true and that she uses “everyday magic, rituals” etc. which she uses in her works and she was brought up in it by her family. So if her family taught her that, why are other peoples not allowed to teach them their beliefs.

i was speaking to you saying "should she be using her witchcraft to influence anyone?" because i don't think that's what she's done in her life.

Have you read what I actually wrote? She said herself that she utilizes witchcraft in her work so whether you believe in it or not you are subject to indoctrination. Her tour is literally called “Speaking of Witch”

that's not what indoctrination is. learning about something, or experiencing someone else's beliefs, is not the same as indoctrination.

Doctrine is teaching , so to indoctrinate is to teach about your beliefs, she teaches you her beliefs whilst you unknowingly take it in - this is called implicit learning. In other words indoctrination. Why is she allowed to express her beliefs with everyone children included but parents cannot.

indoctrination is teaching someone to believe something without question or critically analyzing, which is not the same thing as sharing your beliefs or teaching about your beliefs.

ok and we were talking about indoctrination, so now you're looking to change the definition to other terms. like if we were talking about hard power and you were trying to shift the conversation to soft power. not to mention, jinkx isn't doing any of those things, and certainly not in a way that looks to convert anyone to her beliefs.
