From what's written in the OP the guy doesn't look like a fascist. He despises the State too much. And frankly, sacrificing animals and drinking blood, no beef with it as long as the animal is killed lawfully.

He looks like a whacko, though, because one must be out of his mind to think that doing that openly is going to get you enough votes to win a seat in the US Senate.

Given the current state of American politics, don't you think it's actually not that far of a stretch?

No, he's going in the wrong direction. Had he sacrificed a Muslim and drunk the blood of an illegal immigrant, after choosing "Christian White Amendment the Second" as his new name, he would have had some chances. But paganism? That's political suicide.

Well, in the U.S., at least. Not sure if northern/eastern Europeans would care, considering the high amount of neopagans there (Heathenry, Rodnovery, Romuva, Suomenusko, etc.)

Hm, fair point. All the more reason to launch a Neopagan crujihadsade on the US. *nod*

Many attorneys are pagan. No, not just figuratively.

There are also many stockbrokers who are into primitive animism, in which animals are sacrificed.

It's a religion, and its practice is protected in America.

The twisted version of libertarianism popular in the US - with its conservative fusionism, social darwinism, racist and homophobic tendencies, and fondness for the idea of overthrowing the state by force of arms - is fertile ground for fascist infiltration. I'm not surprised in the slightest, to be honest.

You make the assumption that everyone agrees with the principle that killing non-people is okay. For my part, I consider killing animals for any reason other than food, or doing so using unnecessarily cruel methods, to be morally repugnant. There are many who may share this view.
