Kirk isn’t in Valhalla he died dishonorably with no weapon in hand.
I dunno, he had his microphone. That’s the only weapon he ever seemed to need.
Regardless of it being all nonsense, I can’t see that being viewed as an honorable death by Odin, he would definitely call that a cowards tool. It’s not just dying in battle, which he didn’t do, it has to be an honorable battle in the
eyeseye of Odin.Does it? My little 10 minute read didn’t reveal “honorable”. Just “battle”.
Like any religion, I guess it depends where you’re looking, I had a buddy in high school who’s family was legitimate believers that were way too into it, which is how i learned about most of it, and that’s how his grampa explained it to me. It’s really cool stuff, on a story telling level, but it’s some wild shit to take as truth. Guess that’s true of any religion, though, but dragons and frost giants really knock it up another notch for me.
Makes for really cool video games, too!
Fo shizzle.
Although I agree he used hate speech as a weapon I haven’t seen any evidence that would lead me to believe Norse mythology would accept such an abstract definition of weapon in this scenario. I may be wrong though I am hardly an expert.
Sure, but we’re talking about Valhalla which is most certainly not a real place.
Sure but I was evaluating if Valhalla was a real place would he enter. Suspension of disbelief is a thing.
OK, are there requirements for what sort of weapon you should be holding? I can go look it up but you might already know.
It’s mainly about being in battle and holding a weapon I just have no idea what specifically is meant by "battle"and “weapon” in the Norse cultural context.
Im’ma go see
edit: seems that Valhalla is the hall in which the warriors heal every night and Ragnorok is the “eternal” battle that’s some real apocalyptic shit of fighting day in and day out but never winning.
I see why these Christofascists embrace it.
But all who fall in battle will be Odin’s adopted sons, doesn’t seem like you need to have swung your sword. So, Eugene the supply clerk who catches one in the back is going to Valhalla just as much as Chad the legendary warrior.
I can’t imagine they would see honor in a guy who uses his words to make other people fight a battle for him.
Died fighting a word battle
Maybe there’s word battle debate club Valhalla where everyone is always right.
He had a microphone. If that’s not dangerous, then why did someone see the need to kill him?
Or as the clickbait news should report it:
FBI Director Claims Charlie Kirk Not Going To Heaven
Ok, I lolled
Uhh weren’t the old Nazis super into norse myth too?
I thought this would be a link to the Red Skull scene finding the Tesseract.
You only go to Valhalla if you died in battle or hang yourself from an ash tree.
hang yourself from an ash tree
That’s so specific, wtf
Yggdrasil is an ash tree, so it had some cultural significance.
Oh I see, that makes all the sense in that case. I’m just uninformed lol

These dudes wouldn’t be welcomed in Valhalla
Actually they would be send to Hel.
Appreciate this. However, I’d rather see the paywall and say ‘fuck it’ than click stop lights and bicycles over and over. That shit’s a bigger plague than the paywall. 🤘🏼
lol does he think he’s white?
I’ve seen Norse pagans make very clear that all father means all father, so if he wants to be a norse pagan his difficulty will be that the ones who don’t mind his race will kick him out for his politics and vice versa
Soon?
gang violence
gurgle
at least the shooter waited until he finished his sentence.
Hopeful sooner rather than later
