Guido Von List may seem like an obscure Austrian occultist, but his legacy lives on in many aspects of Modern Heathenry, especially for those who practice any kind of Rune lore. Many apologies, but Ben yodels.

Why are you praising a nazi? Guido von List was a crazy asshole. Anti-semetic, racist, and a scum of the earth. Praising him for his corruption of runes and symbolism. Please remove this so that awful human being does not get praised.
I thought we made pretty good fun of him! – Lauren
I miss the “you’re doing it wrong” era :p
