Unrelated: I've seen white supremacists legitimately get sad when you remind them their ideology demands they fuck white woman.
It really makes you question why they even believe in their ideology.
I've actually never seen anyone but metalheads simp for Varg. Still Varg is quite exceptional for how much he got into black metal, and black metal's community is known for being a bit edgy. I'll share a highlight.Internet white supremacists are such losers, simping for a coward like Varg, ...
tl;dr claimed he burned down a bunch of churches and then told a journalist he was a devil worshiper. Telling the journalist repeatedly: I will fucking kill you if you involve cops. When he was held in prison he complained that they were too nice and not evil enough.
- In 1992, Vikernes, along with other members of the scene, was suspected of burning down four Christian churches in Norway. Vikernes denied committing the arsons, though he supported them.
- In the anonymous interview, "Count Grishnackh" (Vikernes) claimed to have burnt the churches and killed a man in Lillehammer.[38] BT journalist Finn Bjørn Tønder set up a meeting with Count Grishnackh with help from the friends. The journalists were summoned to an apartment and reportedly warned that they would be shot if the police were called.[38] There, Vikernes and his companions told the journalists that they had burnt the churches, or knew who had done it, and said that the attacks would continue. They claimed to be devil worshippers and said: "Our intention is to spread fear and devilry [...] that is why we are telling this to Bergens Tidende." They gave the journalists details about the arsons that hadn't been released to the press, so BT spoke with the police before publishing it, who confirmed these details.[38]
- According to Vikernes, the anonymous interview was planned by himself and Euronymous. The goal, he says, was to scare people, promote black metal, and get more customers for Helvete.[39] At the time, Burzum was about to release the Aske mini-album.[38] Some of the other scene members were also arrested and questioned, but all were released for lack of evidence.[38] Jørn Inge Tunsberg of Hades said that the interview had "grave consequences" for the rest of the scene and that they did not know he was going to talk to the press, as "he had said nothing". He added that they became "bloody angry" and he, Tunsberg, was "pissed off".[40]
- Norwegian magazine Rock Furore published an interview with Vikernes in February 1993. In it, he said of the prison system: "It's much too nice here. It's not hell at all. In this country prisoners get a bed, toilet and shower. It's completely ridiculous. I asked the police to throw me in a real dungeon, and also encouraged them to use violence".[41] He was released in March for lack of evidence.[38]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes#cite_note-LoC95-97-38
