The Environmentalism of the Far-Right Pagans: Blood, Soil, and the Spirits of the Land.

Far-Right Pagans, like most other contemporary Pagans, view their spirituality as earth-based. They are concerned about the environment, however that concern is integrated with their politics of White Supremacy. Based on my research of their online discourse, I find that they use four major themes to frame the environmental crisis: (1) The embrace of human beings as part of the natural world and not above it. (2) The acceptance of natural laws as the basis of ethical behavior. (3) A focus on purity and (4) a view that immigration and more generally human population needs to be limited to protect the environment. All of these to a greater or lesser degree can be found as aspects of the larger environmental movement. They, however, take a particular twist within the extremist logic and agenda of the far-right that is used to justify their radical solutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
