Anti-Marxist Book by Ousted Space Force Commanding Officer Tops Charts, Sells Out on Amazon
Townhall Blog ^ | Spencer Brown

Posted on 05/18/2021 1:38:50 PM PDT by Chad C. Mulligan

After Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier was relieved of his duties by the U.S. Space Force—for the 1984-esque crime of speaking out against Marxist ideology—his self-published book shot to number one on Amazon's charts Monday before selling out.

*snip*

The unceremonious ouster of Lohmeier for daring to call out the dangers of the Left's ideas in a book—a project of which the military was previously aware—is only the latest incident in our military's accelerating descent into woke inanity that's taken place as critical race theory-based trainings and the wild claims of the 1619 Project go mainstream under the Biden administration.

More evidence that Obama's purges of the officer corps have changed our military into political lapdogs. If there is ever a military coup in our future, it will be from the left, not the right.

This is unbelievable. I remember a time when a vet speaking out against Marxism was celebrated. Now the enemy has commandeered our military. And did you read the article today about the Biden criminal occupation now wants the social media of all vets inspected? You know why they are doing this? Because the Marxists are scared sh*tless the military just may uphold their oath of enlistment to protect the constitution from domestic enemies.

Upside for him is that he can retire rich, and start a second career as a blogger / commentator / author / political candidate. Making a martyr of him was the dumbest thing they could have done.

BTW I got my order in for his book before it sold out.

You know it struck a nerve when there’s a dozen or more insulting one-star reviews on Amazon when the book isn’t even out yet.

Ditto and there are still many in the military that hate it. I think this episode along with the SM media story are kindling a reaction which is desired. Anyone who suggests that there is uniformity one way or the other in the military is obtuse and stupid.

Matthew Lohmeier needs to run for Senator against some Leftist arsewipe.

Let the Left understand that every time they destroy the first career of someone normal and patriotic, like the Phoenix, they will be reborn - but this time as their worst nightmare, someone who will oust one of theirs from Congress and act to destroy all that the Lefties have created.

Conservatives write books

Conservatives read 📚 books.

Liberals read Twitter and Facebook

Marxists, Communists, socialists, monsters, criminals and Democrats (but I repeat myself) are all without exception enemies of human freedom and dignity. They are will to power driven sociopaths and psychopaths whose highest unholy sacrament is human sacrifice. In their trajectory through history, they have left in their wake mountains of corpses, oceans of misery and the shattered remains of entire peoples and cultures.

We're next.

The only way to remedy this is to cease the conservative tendency to “live and let live”. “Woke” military should be retired, due to mental and emotional incapacity, which is necessary to believe and support the anti American totalitarian ideology of BLM/ANTIFA/Democrats. The Deep State must end, forever. The alternative is not nice.

Here are a couple of the One Stars

1.0 out of 5 stars Racist and ignorant misunderstanding of history and Anthropology.

Written by an uninformed unobservant official that doesn’t know the definition of Marxism and couldn’t identify it if it bit him on his soon to be remove oak leaf clusters. Also, anyone that writes or speaks of actual racism or attempts to educate about actual history of the US is decried as Marxist while the author supports continued racism by others and likely himself. Should be read to experience exactly what’s holding back American Exceptionalism and accelerating racist extremism.

1.0 out of 5 stars The ravings of a lunatic...should be categorized as either satire or fiction.
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2021
Matthew clearly is off his rocker and doesn’t know what he is talking about. Setting aside the fact that he is a serving Active Duty officer, me the retired enlisted Airmen takes umbrage to his flawed thesis. This book, its contents, etc isn’t worth the paper it’s written on outside of it’s clear evidence of his mental instability. Perhaps elhe should take advantage of some of our socialized medicine that has been part of the US Armed Forces since General George Washington.

14 years in the AF. He should have waited 6 more before opening his mouth. Is he brave for putting his career on the line? I guess he doesn’t need that retirement check. I’ll let you all be the judge. Stinglaub had 30+. That woman who was shot in the capitol had 14. Unfinished.
