I'm a nationalistic Swede so I think highly of Nordic culture, and I try to incorporate it into everything I do. Since modern Sweden is way into destroying its own culture, I think of myself as a bastion of culture. Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia has lost its ancient culture and we need to get it back.

Texan here, I know nothing about the nordic culture. Other than they use to come and raid the Irish and Scotts? Also Hitler was obsessed with the Aryan race or something. I also watched a documentary that said the Vikings were one of the 12 tribes of Juda and means VI Kings of 6 Kings.... I try not to believe everything I hear though.

White niggers.

because despite Nords not being literal vikings it still portrays them more accurate than most of the shit that shows up in google when you type ''vikings''

why the fuck are they portrayed as Conan the barbarian?

Well, discrimination was no foreign thing for christians either, considering the medieval ages.

However I do believe that cultures of pagan background could have even more respect towards women considering the idealisation of feminine beauty, fertility, pleasure love and affinity towards mother nature or what not.
On the other hand yeah, nordfags seemed to really enjoyed to bed foreign wenches. Not to mention the raid and plunder thing. Oddly enough it seems like the the northern and western germanic or nordic cultures were much more agressive compared to some eastern ones in the likes of romuva for example. Although I guess tengri were no better, huuh..

why do retarded nazis believe vikings are poster boys of white race if they raided whites including other Norsemen?

im not a nazi tho and i dont see vikings as poster boys for the white race. I dont see them as some distinctly evil/destructive barbarians either tho. It gets overplayed on both sides

Keeps both parties strong and sharp. Whites raiding other whites = training for the real thing.

>>547476
And that's something to be proud of? OK snownigger.
>>
>>547531
No, i'm saying "treat the womans compared to the christians" makes no sense, since there was no singular way by which christians, spread across dozens of cultures, with lots of different ways of viewing gender relations, treated women.
>>
>>547531
why are you so mad, shitskin? Why dont you go shit up /pol/ with some cuckposting or something?
>>
>>547545
Never said it was something to be proud of, but it means that the vikings werent different from any of their contemporaries in that sense
>>
>>547551
Yeah, a "culture" that relied on pillaging burning shit down and running like a bunch of beta kucks when meeting any form of organized resistance. And you'retelling me that they were not different from the Carolingian Franks for example? Fuck right off fag.

the fighting was the reason the vikings left

>>547618
Yes, all 100 of those brave viking settlers with hoes and pitch forks
>>
>>547618
Theres no evidence of them ever fighting the natives. They are thought to have left most likely because it was too far away from their main settlements in iceland and because their group was too small to accomplish anything and also because the land wasnt that great to live off

Now it came to pass that a bull, which belonged to Karlsefni's people, rushed out of the wood and bellowed loudly at the same time. The Skrælingar, frightened thereat, rushed away to their canoes, and rowed south along the coast. There was then nothing seen of them for three weeks together. When that time was gone by, there was seen approaching from the south a great crowd of Skrælingar boats, coming down upon them like a stream, the staves this time being all brandished in the direction opposite to the sun's motion, and the Skrælingar were all howling loudly. Then took they and bare red shields to meet them. They encountered one another and fought, and there was a great shower of missiles. The Skrælingar had also war-slings, or catapults.

There seems have to been a continuous resistance to Roman influence from the various Germanic peoples throughout history ever since their first contact, Arminius and the fight against Roman incursions into Germany, the adoption of Arianism and in later years Protestantism over Catholicism/Orthodoxy.
