Cheers to my communist great grandpappy who was a station master in rural Norway and used his hidden radio to help derail a Nazi cargo train
If he didn't die 40 years before I was born we'd be best friends I'm sure
Me when the people I lost a war to make me pick up the mines I left everywhere:
Jesus fuck that's what that emoji is called. I've been trying to recall it, as if I had imagined it in a fever dream, for the past several months.
It's a cruel joke that the emoji list doesn't actually contain all of the emojis lmao. Welcome to Hexbear, sucks to suck.
Imagine thinking it's evil to make Nazis deal with the mines they themselves laid.
Like a toddler being mad they have to put their toys away when done playing.
Guy with runes in his name says what
The krauts put them there so it's only fair they helped clean their mess
Wait, someone in the replies is addressing him as Varg?! Is this his alt
Extremely cucked behaviour of him to simp for the nazis as a Norwegian but completely expected
An infamous figure in the black metal scene
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes
He's a gigantic neo-pagan nazi weirdo with absurdly baffling beliefs even for a nazi, initially got famous for church arson and murdering another black metal musician in the 90s
Good thing black metal isn't known for having many Nazis besides that guy
You've got it all wrong, those bands just love traditional Slavic symbols
Varg is the ur-black metal nazi though. Though I guess at least the murder he committed wasn't a hate crime but some dumb beef with another nerd
I've mentioned it before but Varg is such a dumbass he got his wife to film himself trying to swim across a river while wearing a chain mail hauberk and he almost drowned. He is a clown man without the makeup.
He is a clown man without the makeup.
Actually Varg is a leftie.

It got deleted when he lost his youtube channel for being too much of a fascist for youtube. Which is saying something.
Edit: it might still be out there, it was on his "Thulian Perspective" channel.
Funny thing about that Aarseth guy he murdered, he called himself a communist because he believed all the western propaganda about how evil commies are lol, there's pics of him from either his apartment or his office with portraits of Mao and (iirc) Tito on the wall
Yeah, he thought Communism's bigger bodycount* made it way more evil than the Nazis and thus cooler
*Citation needed
I also seem to remember reading he said something similarly bizarre about gay sex
I also seem to remember reading he said something similarly bizarre about gay sex
I clearly remember he once said that he only did anal with his girlfriend because vaginal intercourse was symbolic of the creation of life lmao
Edit: A lot of the quotes from these guys back then was just them trolling the media though. Some dipshit "journalist" from a tabloid shows up at your door and asks you if it's true that you sleep in a used coffin or whatever, you go "sure, why not"
It's the most infuriating thing about the genre. It's one of the only genres of music that helps my mental health because the anger and fierce riffs calm me down and then I find out one of the band members is a nazi. And suddenly I'm right back to being mad and uncomfortable.
Any other BM bands w/o nazi ties? I've listened to Naglfar and Panopticon and they're both pretty solid, but don't know much else outside the early Norwegian BM scene
Immortal was never involved in any nastiness AFAIK(please don't anyone break my heart here) ...if you don't otherwise mind them essentially being the Manowar of black metal in terms of silly cheese
The only time I've ever seen any of the Immortal guys mention Varg was guitarist/vocalist Abbath looking straight at the camera and going "Fuck Varg!" so they're probably in the clear lol. Also, love the cheese.
Enslaved have clearly stated that they want nothing to do with fascism in the scene, which is especially cool seeing as how their stuff is so heavily based on old norse myths
Havukruunu / Mare Cognitum / Spectral Lore / Yellow Eyes / Wolves in the Throne Room
There are some small labels like Syrup Moose Records that try to push lefty bands
If you don't mind digging through underground stuff go look at releases with the "rabm" tag on bandcamp
Danger of doxxing myself but I got to see Wolves in a super small venue, they put on a great show.
There's this list I found - written by an anarchist who hates "tankies", but I suppose at least it tells what bands are cringe

That reminded me of r/rabm, that I used plenty to keep track of the nazis and get some good recommendations. To my surprise, there's a 2 years old Lemmy community for it: !rabm@lemmy.ml
It's in dire need of activity, but it exists.
That's why I'm into EBM/Industrial. Aggressive, rhythmic, usually pissed off sounding and the likelihood of bad politics is comparatively low (even though there are some suspicious band names).
Unfortunately, there's not a lot of it, it being basically a fad of the years 1989-1991.
EBM/ industrial/ is some good stuff, I think it will have a Renaissance, it's due for it 👍
black metal, black sun, basically putting "black" in a name is a good way to make white supremacists latch onto it
And he tried to publish a racist Viking tabletop role playing game. It sucks.
According to another commenter he's still shilling it to this day on this Twitter account
Ugh, even if you somehow ignore the racism he tries to simulate every little detail. If I wanted a war sim down to the second I’d play Phoenix Command.
Norway had one of the strongest support for its nazi puppet government, along with the dutch and french, they joined SS volunteer units in high proportions. However making former occupation forces clear up landmines they put in should be like at the bottom when whining about Norway (especially as an norwegian lol).
I checked the account after reading your post earlier today and it's literally Varg, with an account full of shilling for his dogshit racism ttrpg lmaoooo
Why are German Fascists terrible at mine clearing?
spoiler
They did Nazi them.
just wanna let you know I lost the ability to breath for a bit due to your posting
They've got a lot to be legitimately proud of in WW2. Another good example is their sabotage of nazi heavy-water production. That significantly set back nazi research into nuclear weapons.
I'm imagining a Norwegian guy sitting on the sides watching them run through the minefield, casually eating an apple, completely undisturbed when Nazis blow up mines and die or get maimed. That made up guy would be cool.
I was looking for a picture of suitable Norwegian dudes from WWII, I found this picture instead and it seems like a fitting expression.
Yeah, that exact guy sitting exactly like that while Nazis run over a minefield.
Speaking of unspeakable evil, Norway too has its share of despicable, evil and shameful behaviour.
Yes! Finally, somebody other than me is going to acknowledge the Norwegian ruling class’s complicity in—
After WWII German POWs were forced to clear minefields and to walk through them after they had cleared them, to make sure they were really clear. Hundreds died or were maimed.
…oh.
I don't get what they're so upset about, I'm sure those Norwegians were just following orders...
Speaking of unspeakable evil
proceeds to describe something unspeakably cool

TBH, people who were made to do it were mostly conscripts, actual Nazis got cushy jobs in NATO and FRG instead.
Quite a few mines in Ukraine right now, after the war what's left of Azov should be used for this.
P sure he’ll have been executed by Nazi death squads for betraying glorious Ukraine long before the opportunity arises
Nah, he’s got a villa in Italy. He’ll go on an arms-begging tour and simply not return at some point.
Metal
