I've encountered my fair share of people that don't care for our beliefs and don't seem to care that it's rude to be insensitive about topics. Or don't seem to care to learn.
Here are some things:
◾️Calling us Pagan/Wiccan.
◾️Saying our religion isn't a religion because we worship more than one god.
◾️Thinking we're the same as a Norse Pagan or Asastru.
◾️Comparing us to the Celtic old religion.
◾️Telling us our religion.
◾️Arguing about things you don't hardly know anything about with us.
◾️Using the Eddas as informative sources and telling us what you learned.
◾️Not taking us seriously.
◾️Calling us rape worshippers.
◾️Toxic other religions.
◾️Outsiders thinking we're just a Viking flavored social club.
◾️Sometimes false kinship.
◾️Idiots arguing with us saying we're basically wrong about something we worship.
◾️Claiming we aren't the ones for logic when their own religion has plot holes.
◾️Calling out our plot holes. Even though ALL religions have plot holes here and there.There will probably be more later on but here's what most of us have encountered.
