[This post was origanally tagged on the end of the ‘christian blogging’ post but I’ve decided to make it it’s own thread in the hope of getting a bit of conversation going around here…*nudge, nudge]
Meet the Olsen twins. I mean Lamb and Lynx Gaede. This is the disturbing progeny of a white nationalist who has been teaching her children the ways of neo-nazism since birth. The twins are home-schooled and have their very own white supremacist band called “Prussian Blue” and yes, in case you were wondering, they are indeed wearing Hitler smiley-face T-shirts.
Prussian Blue has been entertaining all-white crowds with songs such as “Sacrifice” – a tribute to Hitler’s deputy Rudolf Hess – since they were nine.
“We’re proud of being white, we want to keep being white,” said Lynx. “We want our people to stay white … we don’t want to just be, you know, a big muddle. We just want to preserve our race.”
Now that is just plain scary.
They’ve featured in the media and blogosphere heavily since their mother won a custody battle for them, due to their father’s history of drug abuse and domestic violence (but apparently no white supremacist tendencies).
A lot of the conversation in the blogosphere has centred around whether they would be better off with their father (depending on the seriousness of charges of domestic violence) and not getting indoctrinated with damaging ideological views, but then where do you stop once a mother loses custody because of her beliefs. Happy Feminist was of the opinion that a lot of people would think her views would be damaging to children. But is it a subjective thing when it comes to neo-nazism? My view was that lots of people are having kids and teaching them damaging views, that’s just the way it is… But if it comes down to what’s best for the child, which is worse?
