Greetings. Is Loki evil or is he a mad cunt who likes to troll? That is the question I know you
00:00:15.880
all have been waiting to hear the answer to. So first and foremost we need to correctly identify
00:00:23.440
the fact that in Norse mythology there isn't really a pure good and pure evil as you have
00:00:29.920
in the more desert-like religions so to speak. And this in my humble opinion at least stems from
00:00:39.720
the fact that Germanic people aren't particularly evil. You can see and hear these unenlightened
00:00:46.540
mortals talk about how Germans are evil but if you have spent more than a few days in Germany you
00:00:52.280
realize that they are probably the kindest people of all time. Same goes for Swedish people and I'm
00:00:59.840
not saying that the Vikings and the Germans have always been good boys who didn't do nothing but
00:01:05.980
it is not evil people, the Germanic people. It is in my humble view very nice and kind-hearted
00:01:13.560
individuals. Now on to my own juicy guns. No okay I will try to abstain from my narcissism in this video
00:01:28.520
anyway my interpretation of Loki growing up with the Norse mythology stories as a merry lad was that
00:01:38.320
Loki was someone who made mistakes made silly stupid things but he always had to pay the price for it
00:01:47.140
but he was still part of the the gods so to speak even if he was the black sheep of the family so for
00:01:54.740
example cutting Thor's wife's hair of gold that's not an necessarily an evil thing to do it's an
00:02:02.680
unnecessary trollish thing to do which is obviously not recommendable to do but it's not evil in the
00:02:09.380
same sort of way as the devil in Christian mythology. So the point with this video is that the translation
00:02:16.700
between the devil in Christian mythology and Loki in Norse mythology it's two completely different
00:02:23.840
things and it's a very bad comparison indeed. So in my view Loki yeah a mad cunt who likes to troll
00:02:31.660
not a an evil individual and not an individual or a god who is pure evil but someone who is a bit
00:02:41.600
mischievous and um and likes to do this sort of things so uh yeah and obviously there's a quick
00:02:51.360
note on Marvel I think Marvel is an abomination that I want to disavow but one thing I do like
00:02:58.320
with Marvel is how they portray Loki because he is a bit more charismatic and a bit more likable
00:03:05.280
in that sort of way instead of a you know sinister brooding character who's just out to actively hurt
00:03:12.300
people. So that is at least my take on Loki as a god or as an entity or as an archetype. So if you
00:03:21.320
want to incorporate the teachings of Loki into your life it's more about being a bit um trollish a bit
00:03:29.300
mischievous and these sort of things can have its place in yeah the metapolitical crusade for example
00:03:35.320
when you troll with leftists etc but it shouldn't be mean-spirited in that sort of way um in my humble
00:03:42.700
opinion at least. So to conclude the way I view Loki and others might have different opinions but this is
00:03:49.400
just how I view it is someone who is still on the side of the gods or in the community so to speak
00:03:56.940
but he makes a lot of trouble that he then has to pay the price for. Now speaking of another thing
00:04:05.940
another topic in regards to Norse mythology and actually about Thor. Now there are two versions
00:04:13.280
of Thor which I find equally glorious. So you have the OG Thor the original the way I viewed him when I
00:04:23.040
was a merry lad at least and that is uh red beard red hair a bit more hench a bit more uh bulk bra and
00:04:30.940
then you have the 19th century romantic uh Thor and I mean romantic as in national romanticism where he
00:04:40.620
is shaven blonde hair and a bit more uh classic physique. So that is the two different Thors I don't
00:04:47.040
think one is um more glorious than the other but there is two different aspects of them. One is a bit more
00:04:53.260
adventurous and uh um heroic looking the the blonde uh shredded one and one is a bit more um
00:05:01.620
you know powerlifting and strongman oriented. So I just wanted to put it out there as well that certain people
00:05:08.800
call me Thor it's the 19th century version of Thor but uh in uh in my view I still view Thor perhaps a bit
00:05:16.660
more as uh red hair uh red beard etc and being a general mad cunt. So anyway that was just some
00:05:24.140
ramblings from the library of wisdom. And who am I? The chosen of the gods. XXO.
00:05:31.360
Boom.
