On The Auron MacIntyre Show, white Christian nationalist Andrew Isker claimed that witchcraft “stopped working” in the Americas after the arrival of European Christians. Isker also appeared to defend the Salem witch trials, asserting that “weird stuff” happened at the time which had “no rational explanation whatsoever.”
During the show, MacIntyre and his guests discussed the “old gods” that people once professed to believe in, and which they suggested were demons or malevolent spirits. MacIntyre asked Isker whether or not he believed such beings, “be they the old gods” or “demons,” “have been removed from contact with this plane.”
Isker replied that they were not “eradicated.” But, he said that their “power” was “greatly attenuated by the victory of Christ,” and that the “power of the old gods” was destroyed “everywhere that Christianity went.”

“And you think about the Aztecs and what their civilization was and how it’s dominated by these just disgusting gods that sacrificed, I don’t know, hundreds of thousands or millions of people, you know, building entire pyramids of skulls, things like that,” he said. “And then, boom, they’re gone. They’re done.”

“We often look at, like, the Salem witch trials and the things that happened there as, like, oh, well, these superstitious people just started to burn women for no reason,” Isker said. “And it’s like, no. Like, weird stuff really did happen that was testified by multiple people that has no rational explanation whatsoever.”
