Not for varg. Varg is retired and living indawoodz of france. He is a likable character and has interesting videos about paganism, nationalism, table top games, and black metal history

Like.
What if brian eno or like phil collins just started randomly uploading meme videos.

It would be weird but moo would turn into full on phil heads

No, the art is only answerable to the artist. >Counting the days till Christmas basically.

When it comes to Varg you pretty much understand the guy just by listening to the music. I can't imagine someone being genuinely shocked by his youtube videos after having listened to Burzum.

Honestly, Varg has one of the least embarrassing social media presences for an artist

I just automatically assume anyone dumb enough to try and be a musician for a living isn't worth taking seriously in the first place.

to be honest his music didn't feel compatible with the neo-nazi persona he built for himself in his younger years at all
his new treehugging anti-western civilization but still hates anyone who isn't white aesthetic fits the mood of his albums much more

>varg will never be your step dad

The neo-nazi stuff was more in his prison years. I think he's always had the neo-pagan outlook.

what would you do if varg was your dad
what would you do if you were varg's first daughter who must be like 26 now

Most artists don't really want to be on social media half the time. It is an obligation they have to be kept on the label, having an active presence. Varg hasn't really got anything better to do if he's not touring or making music which allows for a little more than cursory tweets.

He actually invented his own ideology in prison he calls odalism

According to Goodrick-Clarke, "while in jail, Vikernes began to formulate his heathen ideology using material from Norse mythology combined with occult National Socialism".[7] Goodrick-Clarke bases this account of Vikernes' beliefs on some articles that Vikernes had written for the short-lived magazine Filosofem. Goodrick-Clarke also uses the book Lords of Chaos, and a manifesto called Vargsmål ("Varg's Speech"[54]), which Vikernes began to write after his imprisonment. Vikernes has denounced the English translation of his book in an article on his website. He has also stated on the website that "Vargsmål was written in anger, while I was young and in isolation, and the book is marked by this".[54]

In the late 1990s, "to avoid confusion" and "to find a term more suitable and accurate", Vikernes coined the name "Ôðalism" for his beliefs, based on the Odal rune. He explains that Ôðalism encompasses "Paganism, traditional nationalism, racialism and environmentalism". Vikernes contrasts it with "modern 'civilization'" which he equates with "capitalism, materialism, Judeo-Christianity, pollution, urbanization, race-mixing, Americanization, socialism, globalization, et cetera". He places importance on the fact that Ôðalism "is not a term tainted by history". The word comes "From Norse óðal (homeland, allodium, allodial law, nobility, noble, inherited goods, fatherland, land property, distinguished family, distinguished, splendid, kin and the nation)"

It does in my opinion, it just makes everything seem much more trite.

Not talking about Varg but just in general

I think he was the forerunner of the weird esoteric Hitlerism we see on places like 8pol. I disagree with a lot of Varg's views, especially regarding Christianity, but he's an interesting fellow and I can't stop listening to him.

I'd go hunting and play high fantasy games with him

>I disagree with a lot of Varg's views, especially regarding Christianity
Jew/(((Christian))) confirmed

fame was different before social media, after social media you know that all those rock stars you worshiped are fucking idiots or boring now

fascism always had an occult side to it.
And varg is more respectable because he isnt a white nationalist worshiping a jew on a stick

there's a reason they were called stars. they way we looked at them was similar to looking at the stars and wondering.
ever since the internet they just totally seem like normal idiots

Ya got me.

Ok, lemme ask you this, do you want/like African immigrants

hes not anti-white. if you actually watch his videos

thats your own fault for thinking good at music = smart person.

He said "anti western civilization but still hates anyone who isn't white".

Varg is anti civilization but he doesn't hate any non whites apart from Jews, he just reckons everyone needs to stay in their natural habitat

idk lad, do you?

I mean, Christianity is a weak ass religion that teaches people to turn the other cheek, forgiveness, redemption. Its incompatible with racism because according to the bible everyone is a child of god.
If you are a christian and white nationalist you are a warped person

Not true by the way.

Fun fact, the vikings would kidnap Christians and sell them to Muslims.
Google that shit, its true.

>If you are a christian and white nationalist you are a warped person
or you are secretly worshipping the devil

i appreciate these tbqh

Who else here not agree with 95% of what varg says but watch it because it's kind of like watching a comfy alternate reality pagan skyrim racewar fantasy world

The christian right lost the second fags got the right to marry.
As a guy who was raised catholic, which is rare for this godless modern age, i can tell you that the catholic church hasnt been catholic since Vatican 2, the current pope is half a commie, and they dont practice Christianity, they practice liberal modernism.

As for the prots, take your pick, Evangelical con men, or christian zionists

No, anyway, what if I told you all those Africans were good Christians and followed Jesus's words pretty much to a T.

Would you accept them then since they are all Christians


Jesus pretty much said "fuck your tribesmen, follow me goy" and then the sand religion rampaged across the world for no real good reason apart from "you're not Christian durka durka Jesus jihad", all Judaic based religions are a fucking cancer

yeah i enjoy his videos. love how he rekt his alt-right fans yesterday.

wish gira would start doing vlogs next. too bad the rape accusation probably scared him away

Viking isn't an ethic group, viking means raider or pirate. Pirates do what they can, wasn't a religious or racial thing.

If Gira did blogs that would make me goddamn dead inside

One of my ancestors was a pirate, fucked Frenchmen and Spaniards shit up for fun

Fuckin romantic descended pricks deserved it lol

>If Gira did blogs that would make me goddamn dead inside
why???
he has a history of knowledge he could share. not like his books are good. vlogs would be perf for him. i'd even donate

Bet he'd be embarrassed to see you now.

You're not going to get me to deny that the current state of the Catholic church isn't the best. I think Francais is very much lied about in the media though, he's not as far left as he's often made out to be. He said recently that it's wrong for children to chose their own gender for example.

>No, anyway, what if I told you all those Africans were good Christians and followed Jesus's words pretty much to a T.

The tower of babel story teaches against bringing all people together as one and trying to make them into one homogeneous group. They can be good Christians, but that is no reason to say they must be let into our country, we can live side by side in different nations.

>i'd even donate
whoa!!!! high praise!!!!!

Nah, I bet he'd even join in on the shitposting in a rum fuelled stupor

It's going to be fun for people to see catholicism crumble and show its true side.

its already crumbled. nothing but phonies run it now

I know you dipshit.
Im just saying the reality is that europes original origin lies in paganism and varg is doing it right and if you are a christian and white nationalist you are a moron.
Vikings legit would capture Christians and sell them as slaves to muslims.

why he wears the bucket?

white christians cant be slaves

Christianity as a religion is partially about bringing tons of different people together, the church wants those Africans in Europe

WE

Oh boy, a world filled with islam and soulless consumerism
How fun will that be.

By the way, 100 years from now the state religion of america will be Mormonism

It would infact be the opposite of fun.

>100 years
>meanwhile there is barely any actual difference between religions in most societies
lol ooga booga praying to a brown god instead of a white one truly unique

The church is literally doing nothing to stop LGBT from infesting our young ones minds

Ehy Sup Forums how do you feel?

No shit you dumb faggot. Did you just realize muslims, jews, and Christians all worship the same god?

lmao read the comment again and how it relates to your earlier one
perhaps then you'll finally get it instead of acting like such a damn fool 24/7

not true at all...there are some crucial differences that shape the way a culture evolves. Buddhism preaches universality, but it's also apathetic and self-centered. Islam teaches to fight against injustice, but it lacks universality. Christianity has both. It's no coincidence that Christian cultures are the ones that came up with the concept of "human rights".

Also in Christianity, the hero, Jesus, is a Socrates and Marduk-like figure who ascends to the top not by conquest, but by speech. Makes a big difference, just contrast societies that worship Muhammad vs the Buddha.

Christianity also places the truth as a very high virtue, which ironically led to Christianity killing itself, because the west criticized Christianity to death with the pursuit of truth Christianity made it value so highly in the first place.

Also keep in mind the new testament was largely written by Greeks, westerners, not semitic peoples. It really shows in just exactly what having Jesus as a hero figure teaches you to value.

There is a difference you dumb shit.
Religions teach morality and it differs.
Norse pagans would love to die in battle to go to Valhalla.

Christianity is about overcoming sin.

Buddhism is about overcoming suffering

Only thing is existing is pretty much a sin to Christianity
