For “Valhalla, I am coming!” there is the ever classic Viking kittens, from rathergood. Akward animation, but fun.

Wow, you’re smarter than I am. 🙂 I gotta say, that’s out there even among the newagey beliefs that are so popular these days. If I was Christian, I gotta say I’d be pretty pissed about Christian Identity and the like using my religion to push bigotry.

Unfortunately, it’s a not-uncommon feature of Asatru, revived/reconstructed Norse paganism. Non-racist Asatruar (for instance, [Heathens Against Hate](http://www.angelfire.com/on/Wodensharrow/hah.html)) are very active in educating the public about the difference between themselves and the supremacists, because the whole branch has been tarred with that brush because of them.

this cracked me up. Mr. Ujest’s german family escaped Prussia the night before zee nasty Russians invaded their home town. His favorite cousin is an electrician.

I hate no idea. I thought it was just a bunch of people cheerfully taking an ancient religion, altering it every manner to fit current trends, and claiming to be persecuted, like them neo-druidic types. You know, annoying but harmless. How odd that it’s been commandeered by racists.

The popular website [Somethingawful.com](http://Somethingawful.com) presented Prussian Blue as their Awful Link of the Day. As is wont to happen, this resulted to a number of SA forum goers converging upon the site and spamming it mercilessly. IIRC they found a way to fill Lynx and Lamb’s diaries with all sortsa stuff, including interracial gay porn. It didn’t last there long, though.

Just an update- according to the Anti-Prussian Blue site, there’s a StepDad. No explanation about Dad. But also Mom has been accused of being quite the go-er.\*

Well, you know, it _is_ her responsibility to increase the “good-quality white people being born”:

{from the site previously linked}  
I find it so ironic that these kind of people think that _they_ are the “good-quality white people”.

British broadcaster Louis Theroux (Paul Theroux’s son) [spent a weekend](http://www.thecustard.tv/shows/louistheroux.html) with the Gaedes for his series _Weird Weekends_.

> **Louis And The Nazis**  
> Louis Theroux meets committed Nazis in California – trying to get a laugh or two and expose their horrendousness in his gentle way. At a neo-Nazi rally, he meets April Gaede, proud mother of 11-year-old daughters Lamb and Lynx who entertain the skinhead crowd by singing racist songs. Louis also tries to unravel the contradictory life of extreme racist Tom Metzger, founder of White Aryan Resistance, and gets into an argument with skinhead couple Skip and Heather.

Sort of the new Mary Kate and Ashley, with added genocide.

Who in the hell names their kids Lynx and Lamb? if these two ever met up with Mary-Kate & Ashely, it.would.be.the.end.of.the.world.

That Theroux link is very tempting and very interesting!

I highly recommend his programs, if you can get hold of a DVD. He’s actually very astute and clever, but puts on a brilliant act of being charmingly naïve and guileless - this allows him to draw more out of his subjects than a more agressive interviewer. And he does genuinely seem to like some of the people he meets, even if he disagrees with them - for example, he got on very well with some of the Michigan Militia.
