• Sass genuinely has some really good insight and resources because he is well read and not inherently malicious. Just be aware of his views.

• Sass practices reconstructionist Aldsidu (Anglo-Saxon Heathenry) with a very strong sentiment against the revivalism branch of Heathenry. His posts suggest he is very against the modernization of Heathen practices, and he has a vendetta with the Troth.

• He does appear to have a personal vendetta against Asatru, and with some solid reasoning, but he leans into complete intolerance, as much of the criticisms that have come at him are from Heathens in general- not just Asatru.
