Varg Vikernes was born Kristian Vikernes on February 11, 1973, outside of Bergen, Norway. known by the nom de plume Count Grishnakh during the early days of black metal in Norway, Vikernes was the man behind the one-man music project Burzum, and lately has become a prominent voice for Neo-Nazism. He is currently incarcerated for the 1993 murder of his former friend and member of the black metal-band Mayhem Øystein Aarseth (AKA Euronymous), serving a sentence of 21 years, the maximum possible in Norway. Euronymous published the first Burzum records, though the circumstances surrounding the reason for the murder are not entirely clear. Aarseth no longer had control of Vikernes' material, but Vikernes claims Aarseth had threatened to kill him and that his act was infact 'premeditated self-defense', which according to his own "Nordic" code of ethics was a perfectly viable reason. According to those who knew both, these claims are probably fictitious.
Vikernes is a proponent of the Ásatrú religion and believes it is a religion for all Germanic peoples. He helped create the Odalist movement & co-founded the 'All-Germanic Heathen Front' (although he is neither a member nor a leader). He is the author of several short works on his personal weltanschauung, namely 'Vargsmål' (lit. 'the speech of Varg'), 'Irminsûl' & 'Germansk Mytologi og Verdensanskuelse'. Vikernes interprets the old lore in a fascistic way and belongs to the leading heads of modern esoteric fascism.
He terminated his musical project that he continued from prison in 2000 due to the 'negative notoriety' which he believed he continually received from it as well as believing he was constantly misunderstood and misinterpreted by an 'ignorant' "fan" base that saw contradictions in either his outlook or how things he has said correlated to his outlook which he assures were never contradictive but simply novel & pervasive.
Vikernes has written lyrics for several songs by the band Darkthrone ("quintessence," "as fittermice as satan's spys" etc) that make use of characteristics from old Germanic folklore. In these, "satan" is brought up in the context of an 'eye' which is a source of light (i.e. the Sun) with mentions of a 'spear,' a 'hall of battle.' All of which are masked references to the Germanic god Odin as he has been identified by the Christian Church. This was done with the double meaning that Vikernes does indeed consider Odin the "Adversary" of Judeo-Christianity as they could understand it. This has been mostly mistaken as 'proving' that Vikernes was at one time a "Satanist" and therefore someone who cannot adhere to one line of thinking, but infact the case is that he is an artist as well as an ideologue. Vikernes has stated many times that he is entirely opposed to Satanism as he considers it a reactionary form of Christianity.

This man contradicts himself more than Tony Blair, whereas some of Vargs motions are inspirational some are complete and utter crap!

Get the varg vikernes mug.People who vote knowing little to nothing about the actual candidates as people; instead going by what they've heard in propaganda, who makes eloquent speeches, voting straight by party line, voting for candidates from whom they believe will give them special benefits, or who celebrities say to vote for.
Someone: I'm voting for who will pay my mortgage and get me a Obamaphone and Obamacard!
Someone: He gives such good speeches! Change we can believe in!
Someone else: I will be voting for the other candidate because I believe in more freedom, liberty and self-reliance. It must be embarrassing to always live off the taxpayer teet like you do. Maybe you're a low information voter...

Get the Bush voter mug.Voke is a feminine and masculine name. For the female, Voke can come across as mean but she’s really the loveliest girl out there. Her smile is to die for, she’s loyal to her friends, family and partner. Voke is smart and intelligent, she’s very creative. Voke is a unique and doesn’t think like the average person. Voke can be so proud, but humble. She has a great sense of humor and is very attractive. She can look innocent but unapproachable at first, but talking to her is always worth it. Voke has a “nasty” side. Voke might have haters because, well, she’s loved, beautiful, not easy and cool and people tend to get jealous of great people. Voke is the best.
