Not true. It’s not like powerful groups never lie about marginalized groups’ cultures and/or religions, and never used these lies to start witch-hunts, pogroms, rape, etc. It’s actually happened just about everywhere. I mean all the frame-ups for ‘Satanic ritual abuse’ are a pretty egregious recent example, where those doing the offending were doing the violence too. Of course, these laws are much more likely to protect powerful groups than marginalized groups anyway, and to protect lies than to challenge them.
