Oh, I guess the other boat encloses them so the insects collect within/fill it up rather than just sitting on top of it



You can't really treat Varg Vikernes racism the same way you treat American racism. It's different over there. I mean, yeah, they're still racist, but there's this weird thing about Scandinavian racism where it's like a purely economical kind of racism. At least, my experience with Swedish racism was that way- they still have a Nazis party, though it's not really called that anymore, but their whole thing isn't like "our genes are better" "our race is superior," it's more like "these other people who are different are SAPPING our resources/are INVADERS." It's more xenophobic than racist. Which doesn't make THAT much of a difference, but does make A difference when you consider that the guy everyone's jumping on in the thread, I don't know his name, I just call him Varg, but anyway Varg's point seems to me to be that there's genetic differences between the races that don't necessarily equate to better/worse. It's genotypes vs. phenotypes.

Every song I play is actually just me screaming the 1812 Overture in a raspy, shrieking falsetto.
