      @IAmValenwind 4 роки тому +14

      @Mason McCarty it is one thing to be proud of your heritage... but if you make it about your *white* heritage, instead of your saxon heritage, or your germanic heritage, or your norwegian heritage, or your swiss heritage, or your celtic heritage, or your caucasian heritage... THEN you're *making* it racist because "white" isn't a heritage OR a culture, it's a skin color...
      ...and what exactly is the culture of a skin color? what are the battles that a skin color fought? ...a skin color pushed a culture of subjugation of other skin colors, and fought battles to commit genocide against other skin colors- *not* things to be proud of. a skin color did not create a kind of music, or created a style of architecture, or wore a style of clothing... if we bring it to a level of skin color, then all there is to compare it to, is to other skin colors... and THAT is why it is racist to be proud of your *white* heritage... instead of being proud that your ancestors were saxons.

    Every member of my recorded family history lived in southern England, and in my quest to find out where my heritage comes from, turns out I’m probably as Anglo Saxon as you can get. And yet finding cultural content (music, art etc) is incredibly hard, which seems insane given how much we know of other cultures from around the time. Thanks for this little attempt to immerse myself in my personal history.
    Pretty hard to find much on English/British culture past empire and redcoats which can get a bit hard to be proud of!

    The British Isles and Ireland are their own weird thing. The Celts displaced the picts, the romans invaded, the saxons invaded, the norse invaded, the normans invaded, and the only sister language of modern English is Scots (with a high degree of mutual intelligibility). The Gaelic and Brythonic languages were brutally suppressed by the English but thankfully that's no longer the case. The divergence of English from Old English is huge because of the mix of languages spoken which became modern English. The Irish and Gaelic and Welsh languages still call the English "Saxons". Our week days are still Moon day, Tyr's day, Woden's day, Thor's day, Frigg's day, Saturn's day, Sun day- it's still in the language, it just feels hidden.

    In reality they’re all fundamentally different units of the same noble tribe. Take the English and the Americans as one example, simply two groups of the same tribe. Like the Visigoths and Ostrogoths (Visi-Angles 🇺🇸, Ostro-Angles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿). Simply with more splits and schisms in the tribe compared to the Goths, leading to the creation of Canadians, Australians, etc. While the Dutch and Frisians are close relatives and the modern Saxons in Germany and the English split off from each other even earlier.

The politicians with their dog/law Latin and trying to make everyone like everyone else? Hollywood 'the world of illusion' glorifying violence and bloodshed like in a gladiatorial arena? Roman architecture such as The White House and The Reichstag?
      I did and still do hate Charlemagne, even though he may've been a fool and pawn of Rome himself. As I still feel anger towards oh so heroic and demigod Allies who 'Liberated' Deutschland and led the world to believe we are evil. And there are people who actually believe we'll start another war. Ha! Unlikely as our youth are being brainwashed into hating our ancestors and becoming soy boys and fem-Nazis.
      I'll keep my pagan beliefs and my archaic view of the world. I will keep my love of the old world before the false Christianity became the dominant religion. It's what keeps me from losing my sanity in this fucked up world- this dysfunctional ant colony that you claim Charlemagne shaped. I embrace life with a hotblooded passion. Without fear. Without shame. I will not be a sheep or plaything for the Romans, Satanists, witches, Baal worshippers, Baphomet, whatever they are. I will resist them and so will my children.
