  2. Honestly I can't help but feel we have fallen so far. Corrupted by a foreign religion, and now we let in swathes of foreigners into our country, giving away our ancestral lands. I wish I wasn't so sick, that I could change this by my own hand. But I struggle even to get through the day. Very frustrating feeling so powerless.

  3. Lets not forget that, about from the collapse of the Roman Empire it is mostly the church that does all the writing. For example, Gregory who writes the history of the Franks is a Bishop. And if you ever tried reading the full source you would find that he alternates historical accounts with endless insufferable christian blabla. These sources are incredibly biased towards making christianity look good, so we are not even seeing half of the bad things they did. When I read he "prayed to the christian god for the first time", all I hear is "got a big sum of money from the foreign church to fund his army in the exchange for conversion".

  4. Thanks for making this video. So many Germanic christians who are saying such things because they can't cope with it otherwise.

  5. From what I know, raiding goes back much further. It was simply a Germanic tradition to send out young men, wearing a wolves skin over their armor, to foreign countries to test themselves. Perhaps you are right and they would start doing this en masse, not just the youngsters, as retaliation.

  7. I feel as though Charles went hardest against the area around the Netherlands because that's where his ancestors had come from. That if the area where his blood sprung up were heathens, what would that say about him? It would fit especially badly with the narrative that Gregory had told us about, that the Franks had christian origins rather than being converted Germanic heathens. This of course was a lie. And in order to maintain that lie he went back to his ancestral lands to force them into christianity. It is really silly.
