I worship Woden. Hail Woden!
He ratioed me. He wins this battle.
But like, who actually worships Woden?
No one.
Who donated money to make temples to Woden?
No one.
It’s not a serious religion. It’s not a real religion. He can ratio me on twitter. He’s a smart interesting guy and even I follow his YouTube but like, Woden is not god. He is not the creator of the universe. He’s nothing and no one cares.
So it doesn’t matter. The Prime Mover and the Uncaused Cause, the Existent One who is the Source of Existence is who matters. So who cares?
I know from your bio thay you're a DSA guy, so you're prone to utopianism, but violence is clearly part of humanity starting from an early era. It's not limited to the Neolithic, it occured as early as the Upper-Paleolithic. The Neolithic is when it becomes more noticeable though. Is it necessarily widespread? Geographically it's a decent spread. Does it increase in frequency as the human population and civilizational complexity increases? Yes.
This and the OG tweet are so disingenuous. Evidence of massacres and Neolithic warfare ≠ widespread practice of warfare and massacres, or evidence that these practices are “inherent” in human nature.

Was reading about the Neolithic Age, and something interesting is that the earliest evidence of warfare between humans is the existence of mass graves. It's like the second humans figured out violence beyond merely like two guys killing each other they immediately went to massacres, especially considering some of the bones in these graves are children, indicating it wasn't limited just to violence between warriors but more like total war or exterminationism.
DNA evidence has truly shown that there really isn't this hard Celtic-Germanic divide that people think exists.
Late-stage Rome was a degenerate, multicultural, Christian empire. It was a hollow shell of what it once was (much like the Anglo-American empire is today). Rome didn't fall when the Goths sacked her, she fell when the sacred flame of Vesta was extinguished. Odoacer mercifully cut the ropes on which hung the corpse of the once great Roman state.
Been a loyal Hearthfire member since launch. Was just catching up on RNSI episodes by listening to the episode on Augury as I drove to my holiday destination last night. Great stuff, highly recommend!
Hail King Eirikr!
It is with great pride that we announce our newest recognized Ásatrú Hero, King Eiríkr the Victorious of Sweden! Henceforth we will honor King Eiríkr with a Day of Remembrance each year on August the 18th.
Heill King Eiríkr the Victorious!#afa #asatru #ásatrú #Asatrufolksssembly

In remembrance of the Massacre at Verden, the Pope disavows Charlemagne for executing the Saxons who remained loyal to the Aesir in October 782.
The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty
I can't take credit for that one, I got it from @McnallenStephen.
This is the ideology we must oppose. Yes you do inherit your ancestors sins and glories! You are your ancestors! We are all ancestors in training. This atomized, individualistic, "I got mine" attitude is ultimately nihilistic. Nothing matters beyond getting material success before you die according to this. Conservatism in a nutshell. We are done with this. Folk first.
You don’t gain your ancestors sins or glories. That’s racial identitarianism.
Your ancestor may have fought at Saratoga but you didn’t. You don’t get special treatment for it anymore then modern blacks get reparations because their ancestors were in slavery.
This is a land of individual citizenship, where the cornerstone of our culture is the defense of natural rights of the citizenry no matter where they come from.
If you want to be a king or landed gentry go back to Europe.
Disavow. There is no siding with the forces of Chaos.
If you like the magical, spooky, grim, "left-hand path" stuff, Óðinn is still right there. Freyja too for that matter. Just don't be an enemy of the Gods.
I can tell you! It's because modern man doesn't have a connection to livestock like we did when we were a more agrarian civilization. It would be inappropriate to larp as a farmer when one is an officeworker. Offerings are simply meant to be of value. Alcohol is a great offering because it is valuable, and the pouring libations are very attested in the literature.
Had Hermann not been betrayed, we likely would have seen a united Germany 1,850 years early!
The lesson I take is that Germanic people are naturally conservative, individualistic, averse to unity and fearful of power, but it's important that we temper that instinct, because our adversaries feel no such compulsion and are committed to victory above all. When balancing our instincts with the need for unity and imperium, the Germanic people can accomplish anything.
Today we remember Prince Hermann of the Cherusci. For a moment he united the tribes and in that moment of victory, the world trembled.
"Undoubtedly the liberator of Germany; a man who, not in its infancy as captains and kings before him, but in the high noon of its sovereignty, threw down the challenge to the Roman nation, in battle with ambiguous results, in war without defeat...” - Tacitus
Heill Prince Hermann!
