They're over-glorified savages.

Savages that have a cool piece of technology are still savages.
What's the obsession with Vikings?
>savages
that word doesn't mean as much as you think it does
>t. savage
This. Only non-whites can be savages
They were better than south europeans though.
I think it has to do with Norse Mythology, their daring in exploration (sailing in open water was largely unheard of before them), their artwork including their longboats ("but muh inb4!"), etc.
....what?
They used to be hipster compared to greek or egyptian mythology. The mythology of bad dudes. Today they're even more mainstream than those but it already gained momentum and can survive just by attracting manchildren thanks to how widely available is the basic info.
Also I think the "MUH BEARD" fad has something to do with it.
This but unironically
There's plenty of other more interesting groups having beards. That doesn't justify it.
This but unironically being unironic
>sailing in open water was largely unheard of before them
Neck yourself
It's a good thing that normies obsess over a shitty civilisation because it prevents better ones from being ruined by the normie taint.

They were aesthetic as fuck, their religion was comfy and they put entire Europe into a constant state of terror for almost 300 years.
What's not to like? I realize you're all fucking hipsters so the main reason why you hate them is because they're popular right now in tv, books and movies so now you think they're gay. You're the exact same people that a few years ago despised the Spartans.
Just because something is popular doesn't necessarily bad.
>Just because something is popular doesn't necessarily make it bad.
He's right though.
