The group of more than a dozen masked individuals marched wearing red shirts and black pants, waving flags with swastikas on them. It is not clear at this time who the group is or affiliated with, though many of the shirts said “Blood Tribe.”

      You seem to have a fundamentally incorrect view on how they view these things, but quite frankly it’s way too complicated to explain in a comment, so, idk.

      Read a book that discusses fascism and its love of syncretism, or listen to the Behind the Bastards episode on Hitler’s favorite novel series or something if you want to understand why Nazis love tribal warrior cultures, or at least things they can pretend are their ideas of such.

      barbarian was just the word romans to describe non-romans. It’s simply roman propoganda to call any tribes that weren’t roman barbarians. The implication that their customs were somehow cruel compared to modern standards is also way off base. It’s simply a way to dismiss a people and a culture because it’s not your own, which if you ask me is pretty fucking barbaric.
