Yeah, this was a tough article to write (and keep short and interesting) because getting into the differences between various neopagans is so important. It’s neither accurate nor helpful to paint neopagans as a class as racist or toxic — especially given so many are queer and/or highly progressive and inclusive.

On the other hand, you can spot Asatru symbolism at just about any right-wing rally in the Unites States today. Racist Asatru isn’t totally fringe anymore. It’s increasingly popular among the most right-wing elements of Trump supporters and the like.
