hmm, I get auto-hidden quote trees on mobile, maybe there's a setting you have to adjust?
though I do remember this being an issue sometimes, maybe it's a recent new feature to have auto-hiding quotes on mobile.

It's especially infuriating considering the Nazis wanted to eradicate the people of my great great grandfather's township in Norway because they were considered "sub human" (for daring to couple with the Samí who lived nearby), but ultimately didn't do so because they needed workers for the shipyards. Modern Nazis can fuck all the way off if they think that little historical fact has been forgotten.
Triple infuriating that Vikings were quite enamored of foreign things and cultures and had little to no of the modern "racial superiority" attitudes. Hell, half of their pantheon were of a different race and a few of them were even from the actual enemy.
You could tell the Nazis were being shitty, ahistorical idiots when they protested that Idris Elba was cast as Heimdall. Like, you stupid motherfuckers, there were nine realms connected to the world tree and there were gods from every branch of it represented in the pantheon. There were absolutely nonwhite gods in Asgard and nonwhite warriors in Valhalla. Get the fuck over yourselves.
Current nazis are way into military cosplay, funny how then the military leader Asgard army was a 100% pureblood jotun.
Hey now, don't forget that the Aesir also caused their own downfall by committing repeated acts of genocide, mass murder, and countless betrayals. The most recent God of War was right to cast them as the villains.
The canon Aesir were absolute shits: insecure, untrustworthy, vengeful, spiteful, unfaithful, backstabbing, violent assholes. Its one reason why the mythology is so fascinating. Also its the only (I think) mythology were the gods loses in the end.
Also most all of what we know about the mythos was written centuries after the fact by Christian scholars.
And no, a lot of mythology has pantheons that lose. It's extremely common. Note that not all the Aesir are dead after Ragnarok.
Also Gotterdamerung is such a cool name for it.
Is it? What other ones are there? Im certanly not a mythological scholar, but what I have come across seems to more or less just fade away rather than go to the Final Battle and lose. And while some Aesir survived Ragnarok (Magne, Vidar, and one more I think is the common story, not counting Baldir rising from the dead) the world was very much destroyed (which is what the Aesir fought against).
The Nile has cyclical myths to it. The whole day/night thing was about a god dying, going through hell, reviving, then dying again ad infinum. There are various bits where, from a historical standpoint, the cool, newer gods supplanted the older gods.
The Greeks have the Titanomachy, where the entire Greek pantheon gets its start by overthrowing the old pantheon.
In ragnarok the world ends and they start anew. It's a cycle, not an end.
The starting anew bit is a point of debate I think as to whether it's a later addition?
*shrug*
Norse ain't my wheelhouse exactly, I like the shit but I never got down and dirty to study the history like I did Greek.
Most of old Norse myth was wiped out by Christianity, so there's precious little left to study. What remains is but a shadow of what was.
Now proto-Indo-European names that's what we got to get back on

A lot of my usernames are Latin or Greek because anywhere I can't use smof I use a scientific name of an animal or plant I like because I can't think up anything else good. I hadn't considered that naming myself after a jackalberry tree might make me seem like a nazi.

Well, it's the anti-Semitic Jackalberries you cotta watch out for.
Ur mythologies and cosmologies tend to have whatever supernatural forces or beings which control the fates of man be, at best, neutral on the whole. Presumably because if any given religious belief is gonna start with observations of the physical world and explanations for them, one of the first things most people might notice is that the natural world is, y'know, pretty indifferent to human suffering. Nature giveth, nature taketh away, nature don't give a fuck.
Apocalyptism, in the broad sense of there possibly being an end times, seems to have been pretty common in lots of religious thought in a lot of cultures but it wasn't an ever present thing and seems to have been more common when people in any given area or culture thought the particular now-now times were really terrible.
Like I doubt ragnarok was a theological concept that most norse, even highly religious norse, actually thought about a lot most of the time.

I got both a Latin name and a Scandinavian/Frisian middle name. Mostly because my parents couldn't quite agree on names. Accordingly my brothers both got a Frisian and a Latin/Greek name each
I should uh probably not mention that this username was originally from latin which I eventually decided, thanks to literally nobody ever typing the whole thing because it was obnoxiously long, that it was pretentious.

After seperatist dude got shot at the oregon sanctuary, and someone gave a synopsis of his book, I started spitballing a post collapse cowboy story where the rough protagonist of the story meets his end by leading his sons on a raid of a hippie commune that had marked the fields with poles and flags marking distance and windspeed

Same reason why Winter Gods tend to be evil, because a lot of effort had to go to not freeze to death in winter.
Was there really an exploision in a capitol hill restaurant last night or was it just a firecracker?
The only stories I can find about it are both from KOMO, which is owned by Sinclair, so I'd be disinclined to believe that version of events until other sources are reporting it.

“This is the front attack,” said Nagashima—showing video of the glass window shattering.
Someone broke his dual pane windows. Nagashima said they then tossed an explosive into his restaurant.
“I saw young kids with skateboard throw the fireworks,” said Nagashima.
So they undermine their own sensationalism almost immediately, and watching the video it looks more like a tear gas munition and the very hasty cuts to not show the aftermath of the explosion kind of confirm that in my mind.
