Asatru Folk Assembly - Are Ugly People Cursed？ #afa #asatru #religion #asatrufolkassembly #rigsthula #rigsmal #aesthetic

00:00:00.000 So this is an interesting question. For those people that are consistently ugly, generational, 1.00

00:00:05.040 are they descended from thrall per se, or were they just not blessed with good looks?

00:00:10.120 I would firstly say, remember, we got to hold true to the understanding that thrall is not

00:00:15.900 a person. It's a generation. Can we descend? Can we go up and then recede? Absolutely. I think that

00:00:24.400 the ultimate point of the story is you look forward, you look upward, but that doesn't

00:00:29.980 lay out the idea that could you fall back? And yes, you absolutely can. We know that there are

00:00:36.040 people out there attempting to make us return to thralldom and you should resist that and be noble

00:00:44.240 and be better and grow stronger. You know, as far as looks and things of that nature, I think

00:00:50.340 ultimately there are some pretty long-standing objective beauty within our folk but other things

00:00:58.660 shift you know looking at women from the 1920s to women of the victorian age you know they're

00:01:04.980 of men having beards and men having mustaches or shaved faces or classical french you know they're

00:01:11.700 wearing heels to get that height because it matters so much and again we're kind of heading towards

00:01:16.660 that where height is such a huge factor whereas you know sometimes it was seen as whether the

00:01:22.100 person was strong or whether the man was witty yeah all of those things i don't think that it

00:01:27.680 means you're descendant from thrall because i don't believe thrall is a singular person but

00:01:32.720 ultimately that if you let yourself go if you fall into the pit trap of cankledom and you know your

00:01:39.120 back gets bent and your head is down and your mind is dull and only cares about basic receiving of

00:01:47.680 dopamines all those things that we talk about and there's plenty of people on twitter and the

00:01:52.080 internet they talk about you know rejecting all of that um i think that ultimately is what

00:01:56.960 needs being like descended from thralldom um as far as your looks i mean you know it does again

00:02:04.160 start with who you are and how you hold yourself and if you are kind of you know not on the super

00:02:10.080 good looking side you never know you you could meet someone punching above your weight line

00:02:16.240 and you need to make sure that you hopefully your kids get the the better half i don't i i think

00:02:21.920 that you don't have um that connection to thrall simply as a person it is it is a lot of factors

00:02:31.120 that make you who you are.
