Kent I'm going to explain this very simply to you and then give you a source article, which I'm not sure you're going to be able to follow.
Some people twist history for their own purposes. This was done to the Templars, as you know.
And it's been done to the Vikings and Norse mythology.
So, objectively, Vikings are not racist, but when they're used in a racist context, that act is racist and the symbolism used is racist.

You brought up Vikings being racist, not anyone else. And, you've made them racist because you are a racist.
