It does not matter if you’re descended from any Viking king.It is a very positive effect, that increased interest does not allow the subculture on the extreme right wing to use our history in peace. The usage of Futhark by both far right and hate groups as well as in vacuous consume culture is a grave disrespect to them.Concerning Gaahl, I was merely stating that everyone, including the article’s author has their own levels of trust, and that is their business.
