   Oh sure let's stop using every word that has ever been used by a nazi, I'm sure capitulating to the fash like that will never come with any negative consequences

     By the way, this is exactly how the fash got to take over everything related to Norse mythology. They made their claim to it and all the benign nerds stepped away from it because they didn't want to be associated with it anymore, and the whole dynamic was exacerbated by the work of well-meaning dipshits and busybodies who would freak out upon seeing a rune and erroneously believed what they were doing was somehow anti-fascist, when in fact it's a recipe for losing battles.

     @anarchiv Mm, and the problem for the Nordic Paganism scene is that it very much hasn't really had values as much as just An Aesthetic.

     @pettter Yeah it's the same basic story isn't it? Except punk didn't back down, punk stood up and reclaimed its aesthetic in the name of its values.

     @anarchiv I guess it's not dissimilar to other religions (prosperity vs liberaration theology etc.), but yeah..

     @pettter It's interesting looking at the religious part (obviously, there's also the re-enactors and HEMA folks, the experimental archaeology folks, and so on and so forth) of the scene in Norway, where there is one organisation dominated by chuds and one full of nerd and queers. Really show how where there's a cultural vacuum, it will be filled one way or another.
