The Golden One - The Vikings Series. A Good Thing And A Bad Thing

00:00:00.720 Hello lads, today I want to elaborate on the TV series Vikings, but first let me take adequate

00:00:05.760 measures to deal with the adpocalypse.

00:00:09.160 Now on a related note, we have the strategy game Vikings which you see playing before

00:00:15.600 us at the moment.

00:00:16.600 It is played by no less than 20 million people worldwide and if you admire the graphics and

00:00:24.600 aesthetics of the game, obviously it reminds quite a bit of Age of Empires 2 and similar

00:00:29.400 strategy games.

00:00:30.400 If you download the game via my link in the description, you will get 200 gold and a protection

00:00:37.480 shield.

00:00:39.080 So yeah, check it out, first link in the description box below.

00:00:44.820 Now on another note before I begin to elaborate, I would just like to say that I did in fact

00:00:50.460 apply for a role in Vikings the summer of 2015 and I got the heartwarming support from, well,

00:00:59.060 some of you, at least those of you who were with me on Facebook then because they had

00:01:03.220 a casting in Stockholm and the casting agency was just blown up by requests to have me on

00:01:10.820 the show.

00:01:12.060 So the role I applied for was to be Björn's little brother.

00:01:15.060 But I sent the pictures of me and everything, but they said that I was too juicy, well, I

00:01:21.900 looked too big to be a young brother.

00:01:23.980 Now with that said, I would probably not have gotten the role anyway, but I thought that

00:01:27.660 was a... if there was a reason to not get a role, that was probably the best reason ever.

00:01:33.900 So I felt good with myself anyway.

00:01:36.760 And I felt especially good since I got so much support.

00:01:40.720 So that really... that was really heartfelt.

00:01:43.180 So if you participated in that little operation, I give a heartfelt thank you to you.

00:01:53.000 Now anyway, I have mixed feelings about the Vikings series and especially the later seasons,

00:01:59.620 I would just like to elaborate a bit on first and foremost the bad things and then I will

00:02:04.620 end with the positive, with the good things.

00:02:07.000 So to end the rambling on a positive note.

00:02:10.740 Now, the bad things are... is one thing in particular which I could just not endorse with

00:02:18.560 my silence.

00:02:19.960 And the primordial truth disproves this barbarism 100%.

00:02:26.280 And that is a scene where Ragnar shares his wife with the monk.

00:02:31.740 And this is obviously so far from anything that is reasonable, this is so far from anything

00:02:36.520 that is real that it isn't...

00:02:40.200 I don't even know where to begin to describe how heretical this is.

00:02:44.560 Now obviously when we talk about like TV series and they want to incorporate unrealistic things

00:02:51.760 such as elements of mythology or something like that.

00:02:55.380 That's absolutely fine if one of the characters has a dream or something like that and they

00:02:59.520 put in some aspects of mythology.

00:03:02.000 That is one thing.

00:03:03.000 But when it's something that is supposed to be real such as sexual relationships and then

00:03:08.640 they throw in stuff like that.

00:03:10.060 It's so horrendously blasphemous. 0.73

00:03:13.760 And I mean, any high testosterone Viking chieftain would rather take an axe and hack someone to 0.99

00:03:21.300 death than let him even look at his wife. 0.94

00:03:23.620 And not to mention the Viking queen or the chieftain's wife.

00:03:29.480 She would obviously not allow herself to be taken by a... 0.75

00:03:33.800 what is basically a slave.

00:03:35.540 Absolutely blasphemous.

00:03:36.940 So, yeah, the primordial truth disproves this and that was just something that bothered

00:03:42.060 me quite a bit, especially if they want to portray my own ancestors in a certain way.

00:03:46.940 And I can, you know, go along with a lot of things, but not that sort of...

00:03:51.940 Well, basically cucking in its proper sense of words.

00:03:56.180 If you want a good sex scene that is realistic, you can watch 300 Rise of an Empire, where it

00:04:03.460 is a... it's a quite short film, action-packed, quite visually pleasing as well.

00:04:08.580 And that is a realistic sex scene, whereas the sex scene in Vikings there with the... 0.98

00:04:15.460 with the... with Lagertha and the monk, it's something really bad.

00:04:21.700 Then, obviously, there are other cultural Marxist elements which I am not all too comfortable

00:04:28.260 with, but I think the most extreme example was that and that's just something I want to distance

00:04:33.300 myself from.

00:04:35.380 Now, on the good parts, and this is quite important to point out as well, that is the aesthetics

00:04:42.260 of the series and, like, how it looks.

00:04:44.420 It looks good and it looks quite authentic indeed.

00:04:48.340 Now, I'm sure there are flaws, et cetera, and obviously flaws in the plot and flaws in

00:04:55.540 how they portray certain characters and the social dynamic, et cetera.

00:05:01.220 But just looking at the aesthetics and everything, it's visually pleasing.

00:05:06.580 And when they portray our ancestors in any way, it reinforces our identity.

00:05:12.660 So my identity as a Norseman is reinforced by just looking at these sort of things.

00:05:18.500 And that's obviously something that is excruciatingly important in this particular moment in time

00:05:23.300 when they try to sever our roots completely.

00:05:26.420 So even if it's a bit flawed at the portrayal of our ancestors, it's still something that is good

00:05:32.580 because it reinforces the sense of who and what we are.

00:05:36.500 So when I see things such as Vikings, that makes me happy.

00:05:40.340 And then obviously I get a bit angry when they distort certain things.

00:05:44.420 But in the grand scheme of things, the more Viking sort of aesthetics that is being portrayed,

00:05:50.580 the better.

00:05:51.540 So same thing with certain music.

00:05:54.500 So Armand Armart, obviously you get that sense of being a guardian of Asgard, for example,

00:06:01.460 as all these sort of things, they add to the sense of who and what we are.

00:06:05.780 And that is obviously something that is very important for us in Generation Identity.

00:06:13.620 Now I'm not part of the organization itself, but I meant Generation Identity as our generation

00:06:18.660 that rediscovers our identity.

00:06:21.140 So anyway, that was a bad thing and also a good thing.

00:06:26.180 And in a coming video, I will elaborate on Spartacus' blood and sand

00:06:30.500 because a similar sort of thing can be found there where you have testosterone as motivation,

00:06:36.500 but also quite a bit of degeneracy.

00:06:38.420 But yeah, that will be for a coming video.

00:06:40.820 XOXO, boom! 0.84

00:06:48.660 Who's a bad thing and how to spread this to me with the European dooms? 1.00

00:06:57.220 So why remain calm

00:06:57.640 as you can get uncertainty for our society.

00:06:58.900 All right!

00:06:59.060 It's just not told.

00:06:59.860 It's just not to be serious.

00:07:00.420 No, no, no.

00:07:00.980 I mean it's just not because there's the steel track.

00:07:01.380 It's just the defensewouldial for our enemy Carlisle.

00:07:03.220 It's been almost Soviet this year. 0.87

00:07:03.540 Right?

00:07:04.340 All right!

00:07:05.940 Let's take care of everyone! 0.98
