OK, but what's with the article author sporting the Black Sun shirt and Thor's hammer necklace so beloved by Nazis?
Don't you dare drag Mjølnir into anything Nazi related!
Its use by neo-Nazis is well-documented. Perhaps it's not a 100% sure sign on its own, as accurately noted by the ADL, but combined with the Black Sun, there's no other interpretation.
It's used by everyone because it's a cool symbol with stories behind it.
But It's Scandinavian. It's our old pantheon.
Even if every two-bit bodybuilder, skinhead or hippy wears a Thor's Hammer or have Odin's Spear tattooed on them, it's not and should never be associated with anything political or religious outside of the Scandinavian countries and their people.
