Is "Odinist" just the Tumblr name for the Asatru Folk Assembly? I've never heard anyone use that term in heathen circles outside of Tumblr, but it sounds like they're describing the AFA.
They're white supremacists
They're homophobic
They use the name of Odin (tho typically they call him Wotan) to justify their prejudice
They're extremely nationalistic
They don't actually practice heathenry, they just use it as a scapegoat
Are these the same people? Are they different but similar hate groups? And if they're the same, why do people call them Odinists? It's caused a lot of unnecessary hatred towards people who actually follow Odin for wisdom and seidr.
I'm not asking to be mean, I'm asking because I legitimately don't know the answer and I've seen a lot of hatred targeted towards innocent people.
