Why so? I'm not up on pop culture

Theres a web forum that actually predates the book, but had gotten more notable over time.

Bro, the fucking Nazis started that one. They were huge on "storm" imagery, that's part of why you got SS lightning bolts, stormtroopers, etc.

The lightning bolts are actually a fake Nordic rune created by Von List for "Victory." The actual rune means "Sun." Himmler was basically a psychotic D&D nerd. He had plans to completely eradicate any religion in Germany except his made up Nordic religion.
