iannyx:honorthegods:vulvabard:motorclit:madrantings:Keep yr eyes open.And remember, if you see folks with tattoos, car decals, or flags of these symbols or any other recognized white supremacist/neo-nazi/fascist symbols, GET PHOTOS OF THAT SHIT. I really cannot stress this enough. Make their faces and vehicles known.I’m gonna reblog this to my witchy blog because there are Norse Pagans who need to probably refrain from displaying certain runes in public. To the Norse Pagans (the ones that aren’t racist pieces of shit), help fight against racism.I don’t really post political stuff here since I have my personal blog for that, but I’m reblogging from it for the reason stated above. (Not to take away from minorities within the Pagan community needing to know what symbols to watch out for.)It’s sad the Celtic Cross is being taken over as a symbol of hate. I’ve always liked it as a solar symbol.So this really has me really distressed. A few years ago I got my first tattoo, the Norse algiz rune, and seeing it depicted here I am sick to my stomach. I got the rune as a symbol of protection and through what must of been my own failing of research I had no idea that it was a symbol of white supremacism. Now I feel disgusted with what was supposed to be protective. I’ve resolved to have it changed into a bind rune, but I still feel awful about the whole thing.@iannyxI understand how you feel. I still consider myself a Heathen and Celtic Recon, even though I’m mainly honoring the Greek and Roman gods right now, and I admit to hesitation in wearing my hammer, or the Celtic Cross a beloved elder relative gave me because people might think I’m a fascist supporter.But I think it’s important not to let them drive from our symbols those of us who oppose their hate-filled ideology. I think good people need to be the public face of Heathenry and Celtic Reconstruction, or belief in our gods is going to wither and fade.It’s happening in Greece, too, and all over the Western world. If we let haters commandeer our symbols and pantheons, we’ll end up in the same situation as Christians and Muslims who’ve had their religions co-opted by radicals.We need to spread the word about racism, support each other, and stand up for our gods. -- source link
