Greetings my esteemed Ladingtons, welcome to the greatest QA.
Now you might wonder why do I not have a shirt on?
And usually it would be so that I could flex and pose and behave in that sort of way, but now in all honesty it's because it's simply too hot to have a shirt on.
So you might think it's so I will flex my physique, but actually not.
Not this time.
Usually it would be exactly for that reason.
I would be without a shirt, but now it's yeah, it's too hot simply.
Now let's get on to the questions at hand.
We have the first one from Visigotorum.
How did you get into paganism?
Which are your ways to practice it?
Cheers.
So basically I got into the more metaphysical side of things only this year.
Now before then I approached paganism in a more you know as a way for me to express a biocultural identity.
So I had a hammer of thor to show this is my allegiance in terms of bioculture and tribe.
Some guys they do it with tattoos which is also you know good it can be a good way to you know show where your tribal allegiances lie.
That is how I approached it before.
Now of course I do approach it in a bit different way where I have as you probably have seen if you follow me on Telegram and if you have read my book reviews I have approached it.
I've begun to approach it in a slightly different manner.
Now that being said what makes you a pagan is technically speaking if you sacrifice.
So if you do sacrifice I have done it this year I've done it earlier years as well and I simply you know pour a libation of mild and you know you can say a little prayer or something like that.
So that is what technically makes you a pagan if you do sacrifice.
If you don't you're not a pagan.
If you do you are a pagan and you don't need to sacrifice mild you can pour a libation of wine or you can offer some incense at your altar.
It can be done in many different ways but that is at least how you practice paganism and of course I'm giving a very brief and general answer here.
There are those who have been practicing pagans for a lot longer than I have and you know who can give you a better answer but that is the starting point and I would also very much recommend you to read as much as possible about how our ancestors approached the divine.
So I wrote a review of Mircia Eliades The Myth of the Eternal Return.
It's a good book.
You can start with that.
Then of course the other books I've reviewed are very insightful especially the books by Stephen E. Flowers as it pertains to Germanic and overall Indo-European spirituality.
So hopefully that was somewhat informative.
Now second question is regarding journalism and investigative journalism and whether it's a good way to contribute to the cause and I would say yes it absolutely is.
It's a great way to contribute to the cause and this is something we need more of.
And I am quite happy to say that we do have in Sweden a quite well developed alternative media.
Of course since the mainstream media in Sweden has been so left-wing for so long there has been a great demand for actual reporting and now the supply and demand have met as they usually do.
So I would say that journalism is an honorable profession.
And now you might think this is strange since I usually bash journalists.
But I do it because it is an honorable profession.
But many journalists are simply acting as mercenaries for the regime.
So instead of putting the pressure on the politicians, the regime, they are putting the hit on normal people who are just wondering what is going on.
Most journalists, they have taken a very honorable profession and made it into basically mercenary work for the regime.
But that being said, if you are a journalist with integrity, I salute you.
I have great respect for the profession of journalism.
So if you are a good person, then definitely do pursue that career path.
And yeah, it takes a lot of courage to expose many of these corrupt politicians.
So anyway, I had a few more questions, but I will actually save those for a coming podcast because I want to go more in depth regarding those questions.
And lastly, because I am about to perish here in the hit.
So I will try to seek out some sort of lake as soon as possible before perishing.
So anyway, thank you for watching.
As always, do check out all the links in the description box below.
Do read Dauntless and I will see you in the next video.
