In a lot of cases, it's not just "wrongthink", the people are actually genuinely far right extremists. Take the Asgardsrei festival in Ukraine for instance. It is literally run by neo-nazis, with the far-right Azov Battalion acting as guards, avowed racist/fascist bands on the stage, and a whole day of militia workshops and talks by known neo-nazis. So yes, it is real. It's a small scene, and most black metallers hate their guts, but it shouldn't be ignored. |

By the same token, this small subset shouldn't be used to tar the entire black metal scene. There are activist pseudo-journalists who have done this in the past, and this is a prevalent pattern in recent years. Look out for this happening, and be sure to speak out when you see it happening.
