    There’s probably a shit ton of nazis in Valhalla. Vikings didn’t have any sort of morality about human rights, they went by might makes right. If you died in glorious battle, no matter the cause, you’re going to Valhalla.

    So there’ll probably be a shit ton of nazis from WWII, along with russians and Americans who they fight an unending war with.

    Modern nazis arent really dying in glorious battle, if they do die in battle it’s after shooting a bunch of defenseless people before being sniped by a cop, not really that glorious. Most of the nazis though are just posting edgelord shit online and are just as afraid of daylight as they are brown people, no Valhalla for them.

      Listen, if Valhalla is endless fighting and killing in the afterlife then killing Nazi’s repeatedly sounds like a great time.

      To be fair, Vikings didn’t necessarily want to exterminate ethnic groups or purge so-called unclean peoples, they simply targeted whomever had booty they could despoil.

          That’s what Viking literally translates to.

          There were some quasi racial elements, the idea of “races of man” is mentioned in the Sagas and such but it wasn’t really the same. More tribal, less about skin tone but also the Vikings didn’t really have contact with other skin tones unless they were one of the groups raiding the Mediterranean or Vinland which was rare.

          Still proto-fascists balls deep in might makes right with a chattel slave economy though.
