Alt-Right/Crypto-Fascist Polytheist Galina Krasskova

Introduction

Meet polytheist author, fascist sympathizer, and rape apologist Galina Krasskova. She’s authored quite a number of books dealing with polytheism, Nordic gods, and working with runes. Evidently, she’s a “big name pagan” author (although, by her own account, she prefers the label polytheist), and one can find all kinds of conversations about her via online forums and sites like Tumblr. She’s quite an academic, holding a BA in cultural studies with a concentration in religious studies from Empire State College, a masters in religious studies from New York University, has completed Ph.D. coursework in classics at Fordham University in New York, and she’s currently pursuing a medieval studies MA. Her aim in academia is to attain a Ph.D. in theology.

In browsing the web and looking over her blog, more than a few problematic things become manifest. First of all, she defends and sympathizes with fascists and fascist pagan groups such as the Asatru Folk Assembly.

Secondly, she keeps company with fascists and she links to blog posts from them; specifically, she’s friends with outright nazi Church of Satan member Kenaz Filan and she’s advocated and platformed his blog Europa’s Children, wherein he can be seen making bad faith arguments and furthering fascist talking points for an ethnostate and white nationalism. Kenaz, by the way, is an explicit nazi who furthers the conspiracy theory that James Alex Fields Jr. ran over a crowd at the deadly Unite the Right rally in self-defense and is innocent of committing murder. Kenaz interacts with other fascists on his Gab, like Daniel McMahon AKA Jack Corbin, and his Gab posts include inciting violence and spreading around literal anti-Semitic propaganda from nazi Germany. He’s also harassed a vulnerable person on Twitter in the aim of getting them to kill themselves. Galina apparently has no problem with this bigoted behavior and she seems to hold Kenaz in high regard.

Thirdly, Galina is a rape apologist who has justified the rape of Rindr in her mythology at the hands of Odin and has basically excused any atrocity by, or in the name of, her gods. This apologetic is reminiscent of frequent Christian apologetics that justifies atrocities by Jahweh by invoking his mysteriousness and omnibenevolence (something that Galina does on her blog in regard to her gods)–that we couldn’t possibly be in a capacity to understand his plan with our limited minds and logic, and that all apparent evil in the world ultimately serves a higher purpose in perhaps teaching a valuable lesson. And this, to be sure, is an example of the danger and utter moral failing of religion.

Let’s examine some of her content, as well as conversations had about her by other polytheists and pagans.

Blog Posts and Fascist Sympathies

Here she is sharing content by Kenaz Filan consisting of dishonesty and bad faith arguments. Any claim that Kenaz makes about “not being a nazi” or his “white nationalism not involving hate or violence” is directly destroyed by taking a look at his Gab account where he glorifies killing black people, shares racist and anti-Semitic memes, and chats with other fascists. As well, Galina seems to have no problem whatsoever with now-defunct fascist hate group Identity Evropa, now rebranded as American Identity Movement. She thinks that it’s not a big deal that white supremacists appropriate religious movements such as heathenism or that they follow a strict code of traditionalism that discriminates and commits violence against marginalized groups and people. She’s also completely fine with white supremacists being in law enforcement.

 

Galina has also worked with and supports a transphobic transgender intersex person, Raven Kaldera, who has also published books about paganism. In the past, Raven has spouted all sorts of transmisogyny, anti-trans violence, and racism. For instance, Raven has called trans issues “third gender issues”, which is problematic in itself, and it seems he also doesn’t accept trans people as the gender that they are. Raven also has misconceptions about what male privilege is, saying that male privilege is discounted both when one encounters dirty looks in a clothes store or that one isn’t allowed to hold a traditionally “female” job. Generally, he seems to have a bigoted and ignorant view of trans people.

Raven also seems to mix BDSM with paganism, and he calls himself an “ordeal master”. Ordeals are the act of putting assumably consenting parties through situations that can involve intense physical and mental pain in order to attain some sort of “spiritual” consciousness and can be a form of worship in the religious practice. Consenting parties should be fully free to engage in indulgent behavior; the problem, though, is that Raven has been accused of abusing naive people who are new to paganism who end up getting raped. He’s also been accused of falsely linking sadistic sexual acts to the Hindu Kavadi ceremony and the Lakota Sun Dance, which has been called misappropriation and racist.

In a few posts on Galina’s blog, she attempts to paint herself as not being a nazi and holding to the position that nazism is harmful, but she contradicts herself all over the place stating that she’s anti-antifa and that fascists like Richard Spencer shouldn’t be punched in the face. In a few places, she even states that she falls along the center of the political spectrum and puts forth tired “both sides” talking points. She immediately contradicts this, though, by going on with anti-antifa and pro-free speech tirades that sympathize with violent fascists and play into their favor by supporting them having a platform from which to hurl speech that targets marginalized people with violence and murder. She’s quick to condemn antifascist tactics that thwart this behavior but she’s even quicker to sympathize and excuse violent fascists. She even made a blog post that stated she thinks that nazis are and should be welcome in Valhalla because Odin is a deity of such a mind that politics and irredeemable behavior are just such a small thing to worry about, that actions in battle are what should truly decide the inhabitants of Valhalla. The whole thing stinks of nazi apologism.

She’s also made a post that supports the white supremacist Asatru Folk Assembly, and she is in opposition to Declaration 127 which lists heathen and pagan organizations that oppose AFA. She can be seen actively supporting this racist organization. She’s also condemned the organization Troth for coming out as anti-racist. One isn’t in a position to claim to be opposed to fascism if one directly supports fascist organizations and condemns those who oppose them. She’s entirely making way for fascism to continue to creep into these religious circles. As we’ve seen many times with other fascist sympathizers, she’s pulling the plausible deniability card. It’s not going to cut it around here. There is no middle ground. Either one is and supports fascists or one isn’t and doesn’t. She’s going beyond being merely complicit here. She’s endorsing a fascist heathen organization, something that should be given no tolerance.

Unsurprisingy, she’s also anti-PC and anti-SJW, anti-“censorship”, and pro-free speech that includes platforming fascists. She’s linked to some articles by Wayland Skallagrimsson who has talked fondly of the hammerskins and espoused proto-fascist ideas of hierarchy and anti-PC/anti-SJW sentiment.

 

As well as being anti-SJW, she’s also intolerant of other religions. She wants nothing to do with them and holds an elitist view of her religion in looking down upon others. She wants to mate only within the religion and she supports patriarchial conceptions of a dowry and arranged marriages. She also has troubling ideas about duty to art. She’s fatphobic and she’s against “progress” if it stands in the way of her gods or religion. She’s also classist and she doesn’t believe in helping poor people gain access to college, being a self-described gatekeeper.

 

She’s anti-Marxist and, shown above, she espouses fascist dogwhistles about post-modernism.

 

She’s shared propaganda from alt-right site Breitbart, which has featured Milo “Gay Hitler” Yiannopoulos. She’s Islamophobic, and it’s worth pointing out that Heathens United Against Racism has made a statement against here for this and promoting Hindu nationalist publications promoting all-out war with Muslims. They’ve denounced her and called for opposition against her.

 

Oh, and Galina is a rape apologist who excuses rape in her mythology.

Further Links Concerning Abuse and Bigotry

There are numerous troubling threads online that discuss other troubling things with her, such as abuse and further bigotry. We can’t confirm the veracity of some of the claims made on these sites, as no links were given backing up certain claims. However, people should be aware of the accusations being made in light of what we’ve already reported on in this article. If one can’t be bothered to read entire pages, we recommend doing a quick search with keywords such as “Galina Krasskova”, “abuse”, “discrimination”, “racism”, “fascism”, “nazism” etc.

Meet a Church of Satan Nazi: Part 5. Matt G. Paradise – #ChurchofSatanDoxxes

For the fifth part in this #ChurchofSatanDoxxes series, we’ll be exposing Church of Satan clergy member magister Matt G. Paradise as an outright fascist. It’s worth recalling here the importance and precedence of Church of Satan clergy and hierarchy. As you’ll recall from our second article of this series, Church of Satan members who rank third and fourth degrees are part of Church of Satan clergy, meaning, they’re official representatives of the organization and they talk with authority on the Church of Satan’s brand of satanism; and the work of some are Church of Satan canon, including Matt’s book Bearing the Devil’s Mark. So, let’s take a look at Matt and show his fascism and bigotry.

Matt G. Paradise

Matt’s involved in a variety of projects; most notably is Purging Talon which hosts various things like podcasts such as the Accusation Party, a fascist, alt-right podcast where Matt bemoans the decline of the “West”, antifascists, feminism, political correctness, and rights for LGBTQA+ individuals. He has other podcasts as well such as Strang Moments in Cultural History, Terror Transmission, and Vintage Vinyl Vivisection. He groups all of these podcasts under the Accusation Network, and he has released a Patreon to support these projects. We encourage sensible people to notify Patreon and demand that this hateful fascist’s projects be removed.

In taking a look at the Accusation Party podcast, we can directly see references to fascism on TAP’s Gab and Twitter accounts, which sport a Romanesque statue and the fasces, a central symbol of fascism.

 

The very first post we see on Twitter is a reference to a racist Catholic kid who harassed a Native American at a recent March for Life. The racist kid in question can be seen antagonizing a Native person while smiling at them. The recent controversy highlights the boldness of racists in their outright racism due to the Trump regime. The phrase “it’s okay to smirk” has become a meme in fascist, alt-right circles that defends the racist kid’s antagonizing. Fascists dishonestly assert that merely smirking nowadays is seen as a racist action, and they have lauded the racist kid as being a hero. This narrative echoes the delusions of “anti-whiteness” by white supremacists and plays into their false victimhood at what they perceive to be “white genocide”. This recent phrase echoes an earlier white supremacist meme and dogwhistle, “it’s okay to be white”, which is both a truism and a strawman argument against justified anti-racist actions, as anti-racism targets racism and not white skin tone per se. The “it’s okay to smirk” meme is another way that fascists subvert anti-racist narratives and draw over non-radicalized people. Of course it’s okay to smirk, however, in the context in which the smirk was used by this racist kid in their bullying and antagonizing of a Native American, it was blatantly and patently racist behavior.

 

Just as with all other Church of Satan members we’ve covered, and fascists in general, Matt is vehemently transphobic and he thinks that transgender people have a mental illness. This is reflected in his Accusation Party podcast as well as in other content he posts on social media.

 

We can further see his bigotry and alt-right leanings on his Twitter. He posts “fake news” pieces from conservative and far-right sites such as National Review, InfoWars, Breitbart, Defense Maven, Quillette, Dailywire and Bizpac Review, which spreads transphobia, pro-fascist talking points, and anti-political correctness sentiment. He also shares articles from racist pseudo-scientific “race realists” such as Charles Murray who authored pseudo-scientific book the Bell Curve, and he really seems to like Milo Yiannopoulos, so-called “alt-light” figure and bigot who outed a trans person.

He also sites alt-right professor and academic troll Peter Boghossian to justify his transphobia and his disdain for gender studies. Matt’s brought up the anti-Semitic and fascist “Jewish Question” from a post on fascist site Counter-Currents. He’s linked to an article by fascist, rape apologist, and male supremacist Jim Goad, who once had a pro-rape “rape issue” of his magazine Answer Me. The magazine is alleged to be an inspiration of conspiracy theorist Francisco Martin Duran, who took 29 shots at the White House. Matt seems to downplay the emotions and experience of survivors of trauma by linking to an article that says not every misfortune is a trauma. Matt’s also Islamophobic. He can be seen showing his sympathy for fascists like Lauren Southern, and he posts anti-Semitic dogwhistles about “globalists” and “cultural Marxism” conspiracy theories. He really likes eugenics and he wants it to be instituted in the US. He’s also anti-equality and he supports the work of fascist Jack Donovan.

 

What is more damning and what explicitly shows Matt’s fascism is his follows on Twitter. By the way, he has locked down and cleaned up his social media accounts ever since we started reporting on him on Twitter. He has since unfollowed the fascist accounts he once did and has deleted certain fascist tweets. Luckily, we have screenshots from before he did this. He’s followed fascists such as Ashton Whitty, Henrik Palmgren, David Duke, Lauren Southern, and fascist accounts Identity Evropa and Disdain4Plebs, the latter of which was the violent group that fascist murderer James Alex Fields was with in Charlottesville when he ran his car into a crowd of people.

 

In addition to running these podcasts, his projects are also supported and platformed directly by the Church of Satan and reverend Adam Campbell’s YouTube account Third Side Network. Both the organization and Adam Campbell seem to have no problem whatsoever hosting this bigoted and fascist content. And, as stated earlier, his book Bearing the Devil’s Mark is officially endorsed by the organization.

Likewise, he also promotes his fascist and bigoted content on Bitchute, Minds, Gab, Patreon, iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, Stitcher, and TuneIn.
