Crazy when you think about. Convince someone of paradise and virgins and how righteous their cause is, and they'll blow shyt up.
On the other hand these white dudes are getting into Wotan and Asatru. Might start seeing more die thinking they're going to Valhalla.
Didn't know that Whites were getting into Norse folklore/belief systems. Is this trending with regular whites, or is it being promoted by those seeking to radicalize and exploit angry white men?
Another radicalization tool is to give the recruit a new group identity to belong to. Builds up the confidence of low self esteem people .They are presented with a stylized polished vision of their own actual heritage , connect to a powerful related culture, or to a fictional heritage .
Always presented to them by those seeking to manipulate/exploit them. Usually done in the shadows to young impressionable Men. Weird seeing Trump use this playbook openly in real time, and to see people of all ages falling for it.
"US against THEM" is really the greatest hustle ever invented.
Thought you have to die fearlessly in battle to get to Valhalla?
They're feeding these MAGA folks, a b*stardized version of these stories probably. Anybody that fukks with Trump can't be the most discerning person in the world.
