I agree with most (if not all) of this. Speaking the truth has only harmed my career and stability. Behind a closed door everyone will agree with you and call you a good officer, but in the kangaroo courts where it matters...you will be abandoned. Ask me how I fucking know.

I'm leaving it behind starting a new chapter as soon as my packet goes through. I'm working up an article series to document my reasoning with examples. More to follow.

Well done, Grant.

"Truth is treason in an empire of lies..."

Keep telling the Truth, Grant! Lies are fashionable now, but fashions come and go. And the bullshit will go out of fashion real quick when things heat up in the world and strength, rather than Marxcissist diversity, is needed to win critical battles.

I almost included a comment in my DIEing Academia piece about how the recruitment crisis in the military is a mirror of the enrolment crisis in the universities, right down to the insistence that it has nothing to do with politics. Combine this with plummeting ratings for regime media and the Great Resignation and it seems that everywhere you look people are checking out.

Thanks for the shout-out and for the powerful message, brother.

I am profoundly glad that I am out, and now too old to fight, and that my sons are too young.

I kinda look forward to a woke military being utterly slaughtered on its first battlefield, because other than starvation in the general population, that is the only thing that could flip the table on the grand scale required.

No matter, the important part was that Pfizer and Moderna made their billions

..

Correction - BIG PHARMA made Trillion of USD

TRUMP cut a $12 Trillion USD check in March 2020 to fight COVID a good 25% if not more went to BIG-PHARMA

This is powerful Grant. So many quotable passages you have written here.

It seems you've turned a corner. I deeply appreciate what seems to me to be a new and more forceful voice. Reminds me of TGC, JC, CJ and all my favorites who most earnestly make me want fight the good fight, to the extent that I can.

I just told a friend that I have come to the point where I believe ignorance and silence are willful sin.

“Few if any social forces”

Force.

Your first instinct was correct , when you swore the oath you got it, maybe take a break if you need to overthink this ...

I took 2 breaks, BTW. I suspect my so called retirement is another.

Go clear your head.

And it all comes down to force.

Even gain is weak before force, gains chief advantage over force is large gains aren’t available to anyone with the Balls to act - unlike Force which absolutely is available to everyone.

Gains are hoarded by the few and guarded by laws, giving unnatural advantage to clever cowardice.

Still guarded by force.

Bleed away, take a break.

Out here HR and Karen has no UCMJ- think about that.

I’m 10 months behind at least on my annual racist rapist struggle session, I just ignore them.

A shameful history of slavery, racism, and broken promises inconsistent with these foundational principles. It is into this wound that Marxists plunged their knife. Using racism, sexism, and most recently homophobia and transphobia as proxies for the very principles that made America exceptional and prosperous in the first place, Marxists set about their dark task.

It used to be illegal to teach Marxism in american schools.

I knew what was about to happen when the Service Branches stopped supporting the Chaplain's Core. Without strong religious foundations, Trees will fall, Services will fall. When they started telling service members to "Take the shot or get out," it was only time before those service fell.

The DoD has fallen, the Academies have fallen, and only the Marine corps is weathering this bullshit.

i suppose it's only time before some enemy tries to attack us, and the citizens have to pick up arms and defend the country.

Stephen M Walt put out a very good book in 2018: The Hell of Good Intentions: America's Foreign Policy Elite and the Decline of U.S. Primacy. Your analysis of our Military Leadership has strong parallels of his on our Policy Elite. If you have a chance to add to it to your list, I think you will find it both insightful and unfortunately confirming. Outstanding article. One which I will pay the compliment of saving and re-reading. Have some notes on Walt I'm trying to organize for a post, and will certainly reference Checkmated by Progress when I get that done.

Yep, I was drinking beer with Beckwith in those days and saw his anger; He was seriously pissed, but they did kill him and that shows you that no matter how high you are or who your are if you speak-out you die, just like JFK

Now to the point right now again, why are USA forces such pussys today and allowing all the HOMO shit, and not fragging their leadership?? WHY?

My only guess is that pro career cucks only care about the PENSION.

Tens of Millions can (hypothetically) Speak the Truth and YET still be sacrificed in a Giant, Nuclear Bonfire to Summon Demonlords into the Realms of Man. So whilst Truth telling is necessary, it is not sufficient to get out of this “Hole” (there is more Depressing language that can be used here, but I will keep this part PG for now).

Marxists are by definition atheist, so I was struck by your use of the word occult early on to describe what is going on in society and the military. Mark Bisone claimed that too, in your Tonic Discussions #2, in much more detail with more emphasis. Occult is the science of the unseen, which for some of us is the study of excellence in the glory of God, though some do use the study for nefarious purposes indeed.

My hope would be, good "pagans", monotheists and atheists could come together to lay waste to the pederasts sexualizing children by way of destroying America and our military.

Trust? Actually their ability to continue plundering the world, raping and mutilating children isn’t contingent on trust; but fear.

It’s contingent on the military and police enforcing elections and laws.

If they don’t have an army or police force they are powerless.

Walk away. If soldiers walk let it go, whoops paperwork foulup (b--ch please, I damn well know things can get lost in the system). If the company commander doesn’t pursue, its not really pursued. Dear S1, go to Hell , here’s directions, want help?

Stop helping them, and don’t fear them, they’re cowards.

They’re weak.

The Strong should not protect evil weaklings.

BTW out here in Civilian land this is happening all over.

We just stare at them.

WOW GREAT POST TELL IT LIKE IT IS

Just say NO? HELL NO

When I was a kid, the kids would hang out near the exits of gay bars and hit the homo's in the head with a 2x4

When I was a kid if a homo touched you, then your would beat the fucking shit out them

My how times have changed;

I will say this about the US-MIL almost every HOMO I ever met as an adult told me that they went homo in the MIL that a commanding officer offered a 'blow-job' and is how they were groomed in the MIL

Also I have known many NAVY Submarine, Trident type officers and 100% homo

So IMHO this homo in the MIL is not new, hell even LINCOLN that most worshiped UK agent of ZOG in Civil War USA history period was a flaming homo;

Police State lost the Police

The Canadian Police State has no police. 🤔

Nor should it.

This is the way; Walk away.
