To give a very brief sneak preview of what I observed: It seems to me that (online, at least) Hellenism is on average a lot more individualistic and less infused with contemporary politics than Heathenry. Though with organized groups I'm guessing (as you allude to) the same sort of problems tend to crop up. That said, I'm guessing this is an area you are a lot more knowledgeable in than me. It's why I'm looking forward to your insights which will certainly help me fill in my (likely very wide) knowledge gaps. The observations I'll be sharing mostly concerns a few social media personalities who have branded their edgy body-builder/neo-masculniity cultism as "Hellenism." I'll go into talking about a genuine practicing group too.
