🔴RED FLAGS: This will also be continually updated in an effort to combat all the bullshit of the world at large.
Imelda Almqvist: uses TERF language and recommends Thorsson, Kaldera and Aswynn in latest book, "Portals, Patterns, and Pathways"
Guðbjörn Ívar Kjartansson: The book "The Language of Norse Myth" is riddled with Gen-Ai
Mari Silva: Ai generated pagan, and spirituality books.
Wolf the Red and Ocean Keltio Owners of the Hold Discord Server: anti-Semitic, and xenophobic. Have berated multiple people with mob tactics, and have caused several people irreparable mental anguish and ptsd.
Skaldic Eagle aka Eirik Westcoat: the fascist creator of the American Futharch and user of Nazi iconography in their works.
Edred Thorson/Stephen Flowers: known white supremacist who wrote one of the more popular books on Runes, also founder of the Rune Guild.
Stephen McNallen:founder of the white supremacist organization Asatru Folk Assembly(afa)
Dianna Paxson: author who has white washed, and muddled bipoc practices in their books, as well as cited and recommended problematic authors, and has multiple pending allegations linking her to sexual abuse.
Vilhelm Gronbech: Nazi-author of "Culture of the Teutons"
Daniel McCoy: Norse Mythology for smart people, routinely speaks hate against Loki, a proud misogynist, and supporter of Thorrson.
Raven Kaldera: author who has sexually assaulted multiple people for initiate practices, is folkish. Galina Krasskova is associated with Kaldera.
Ekortu (former pseudonym Vexior). He considers himself the founder of the Thursatru Tradition. Some of the books he wrote:
- Þursakyngi, Volume 1: The Essence of Thursian Sorcery
- Þursakyngi, Volume 2: Loki
- Gullveigarbók: An Investigation of Gullveig in Old Norse Mythology & Her Anti-Cosmic Nexus
- Panparadox (from 2009, under his former pseudonym)
Thursatru (at least how he describes it) is heavily based on Anti-Cosmic Satanism (also known as "Chaos-Gnostic Satanism" or "Current 218"). The later is an ideology created by The Temple of the Black Light (formerly the Misanthropic Luciferian Order). It's a misanthropic, fascist and satanic organization similar to Order of Nine Angles (terrorist and neo-nazi network). Members of Temple of the Black Light were involved in really bad criminal activities (||Keillers Park murder, animal sacrifices, calling for mass suicide||). In general Anti-Cosmic Satanism in an ideology based on belief that "the universe is an aberration that needs to be destroyed so that primordial chaos can reign again". They worship "eleven anti-cosmic gods" described in the book Liber Azerate.
Ad Mercer: Author of "Runa" its the armanen runes(nazi runes)
Neil Gaiman: author, pending allegations of multiple types of abuse.
Freya Aswynn: author who is homophobic, transphobic, and xenophobic.
