+1 yes exactly this. in some places the Confederate thing is still alive and well. i don't see anyone flying viking flags or claiming they were being vilified for a noble cause or using vikings as an excuse to be racist and say horrible things to people.

We also have to figure into this that his character in Firefly was essentially a Confederate Officer IN SPACE!. That adds a layer of creepy to his "interest", he may not have intended it but intent is not magic and when someone who plays a thinly veiled version of the noble confederate officer of myth (albeit cloaked in sci-fi) in a setting that kinda whitewashes the reason for the war starts talking about how he finds it interesting that one of his ancestors was a moderately famous racist-even-for-the-era, then people will start to draw their own conclusions.

I do get your point about the Confederacy pride being far more hot-button and harmful and closer to this century's issues, but gotta correct you there: yeah, in Europe your local far-right thugs and wannabe-elite will be decking the halls with celtic crosses and there's an easy mishmash made between the Aryan ideal and the popular image of the Viking warrior. Shops that sell medieval knicknacks and Mjolnir pendants tend to be your local white supremacist hangout.
