While, I'm sure there's nowhere on earth that would tolerate the New Asatru sacrificing humans, I think, if they wish to do things properly, they could still do animals.
But it would have to be done similar to how voodoo practitioners do. In which the animal is actually slaughtered for food, but still done in the ways intended for animal sacrifice to the gods.

Profit!
They do some shit like that, then I could consider it a bit authentic (or as authentic as you're gonna get in modern society).
But all it is right now, is just a LARP.
If they're too cowardly to shed blood, even it's just slaughtering animals for food in reality; they're no true offspring of the Nordic faith.
