The Bud Light MilitaryDon't fall for it: they still hate you.

Sing, o muse, of the wrath of Achilles, son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans ...

Thus opens the foundational epic of European civilization.

Achilles is angry because his woman, Briseis, has been appropriated by Agamemnon, the leader of the Greeks. He expresses this discontent by going on strike. While the rest of the Greek army fights and dies outside the walls of Troy, Achilles lounges in his tent, content to sit out the combat until Agamemnon comes to his senses and returns his war bride. If Achilles were simply any other warm body with a spear, this wouldn’t be such a big deal, but he is Achilles – the greatest warrior of the Heroic Age. Without him, the Greeks are at a severe disadvantage. Achilles’ petulance is therefore a problem for Agamemnon.

The lesson is hardly a subtle one. Kings and generals need to keep their soldiers happy. They especially need to keep their best soldiers happy. If they don’t – for instance, by taking their women from them – morale will suffer, and they may well find themselves without the crucial support of their warriors when it most matters.

Washington seems to have missed that lesson, and now, they’re paying the price.

For the last decade they have been relentlessly and mercilessly whipping American whites: defaming them as racists, mocking their intelligence and manliness, tearing down their statues, erasing the names of their ancestral heroes, replacing their fictional archetypes with diverse doppelgangers in the media, disadvantaging them in education and employment, demanding that they attend racial struggle sessions. The list of outrages and humiliations is long and all too familiar, permeating as it does every one of our institutions.

But now, the Empire of Lies faces a problem.

War has returned to the world. History, its rumoured demise notwithstanding, once again stalks the land. Russia mauls the Ukraine; Israel is beset with enemies; the Empire’s influence in Africa frays by the day; China salivates over Taiwan.

Meanwhile the American domestic economy, long since hollowed out by the extractive rent-seeking of financial parasites, lurches from one crisis to the next. The Great Satan remains powerful, for the present, but the young bucks can scent that the silverback is not what he used to be. Their provocations increase in daring and intensity. If they aren’t slapped down, their boldness will only increase.

The criminal regime that has insinuated itself into the halls of American power is running against a clock. They must have a war to cover the slow collapse of their fake economy. They must have a war to prevent rival regimes from displacing their American golem. But their golem is crumbling. Therefore they must have a war sooner rather than later, because with every moment of delay America becomes weaker, while China and Russia become stronger.

Their problem is that no one wants to fight for them.

More truth than not.

The Big Army has released a new recruiting video - all white males are the featured players.

Trouble is **nobody** is buying it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luc9saxt_YQ
go to the comments section...it is very telling

Most read a lot like this:
“As a white cis male descended from people who’ve fought in most conflicts this country has seen going back to the revolutionary war: I feel that joining up would be merely getting in the way of our BIPOC and LGBTQP2A+ troops, wasting valuable resources better spent on them, the true strength and future of this country.”

Yeah. No sale.

I have lived in communist countries, where one follows leaders speeches or changes in controlled media headlines, to parse where government will push ideological social-engineering and economic policy

So when Joe Biden used his INAUGURAL ADDRESS (!) to make “white supremacy” the enemy of the state - I knew we were in deep sh**.

How about this comment:

"I will not die for Biden, I will not die for open borders, I will not die for Ukraine, and I will not die for Israel"

Wow

John Carter reminds me of Tucker Carlson. It’s a different medium and I expect there are other differences. In both cases it’s refreshing to read or hear something that has merit and would never pass the censors of the press and TV. Carter and Carlson are too much for the Wall Street Journal and Fox News, home to “acceptable” conservatism.

If you haven’t yet, I recommend you follow the link and read it through to the end.

This part near the end of the article pretty much sums it up:

"Don’t fight for these people. As Sam Hyde said, “When we win, do not forget that these people want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think its funny.”"

Thise same people had their goons have a SWAT run down an hinorably discharged man, and have kept many others jailed without trial for 3 years.

I'm surprised it hasn't caused the dead to rise from Arlington.

Retired Army Officer here with twin 7 yr old grandsons. I would not recommend they wear the uniform unless there are drastic changes in the coming years.

I’m convinced a draft is coming for the purpose of using white, patriots as cannon fodder.

Excellent read.
I believe they will try a draft.
How will they enforce it?
They can’t get any white men to be cops anymore.
We are checking out of your Woke BS dystopia.
We will stay in our tents.
Keep in mind, woke, sick liberals we still have guns, ammo, and will not disarm ourselves.

How do they separate the men from the boys in the Army?

With a crowbar.
