US Army Struggling To Recruit White Soldiers And The Reason Is Obvious

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Modernity.news,

People reacted to the news that the U.S. Army is struggling to recruit white soldiers by asking why they would want to serve a regime that hates them.

A review of internal data by Military.com exposes why Army leadership are so concerned.

“A total of 44,042 new Army recruits were categorized by the service as white in 2018, but that number has fallen consistently each year to a low of 25,070 in 2023, with a 6% dip from 2022 to 2023 being the most significant drop. No other demographic group has seen such a precipitous decline, though there have been ups and downs from year to year,” reports the website.

In 2023, the Army missed its recruiting goal of 65,000 soldiers by a shortfall of 10,000, with just 44% of new recruits categorized as white in 2023 compared to 56.4% in 2018.

In that same time frame, the percentage of black and Hispanic recruits increased as a percentage.

“The rate at which white recruitment has fallen far outpaces nationwide demographic shifts, data experts and Army officials interviewed by Military.com noted. They don’t see a single cause to the recruiting problem, but pointed to a confluence of issues for Army recruiting, including partisan scrutiny of the service, a growing obesity epidemic and an underfunded public education system.”

However, many respondents on X pointed to an emphasis on diversity hires and general denigration of white people by the establishment as a primary reason for the collapse in white recruits.

“I am shocked young white men are refusing to sign up to die for a government that hates them,” wrote one.

“It’s almost like we don’t want to risk our lives for a country that spits in our face daily,” remarked another.

“They’d be foolish to risk their lives defending a regime that hates them,” added another.

Former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley previously asserted that the U.S. Military should strive for greater ‘racial diversity’, essentially arguing that the Army was too white.

He followed that up by telling a House armed services committee that he wanted to “understand white rage,” which was seen as a partisan comment aimed at white conservatives given that the country had just experienced a year of BLM rioting.

During the second term of the Obama administration, the White House was also pushing the notion that the Army was staffed with “too many whites” and men in general.

The Biden administration has also relentlessly pushed the narrative that the biggest terror threat in the United States is driven by radicalized white men.

Is it any wonder that white men don’t want to serve a regime that has vilified and demonized them for years?

Now that they killed off all the Nazis in ukraine and elsewhere that went there to fight Russia, it wouldn’t surprise me if they came out and told the real reason for the war was to create a “big Israel” to sucker the zioconned whites to sign up and meet recruitment quotes to kill them off too. Twisted for sure the way they play the minds of the unsuspecting AND suspecting alike, over and over again.

Since Vietnam, just which wars have the US fought other than on behalf of or due to lies by ‘our friend and ally’, israel? And even Vietnam was partially on behalf of jews and of israel, what with the CIA’s involvement with them in the opium trade from the Golden Triangle.

And, of course, we got dragged into WW1 by the implementation of the Balfour Declaration … a treason by US jews in aid of UK jews to create israel.

We can start our own citizen protection groups and kick your corrupt cops out of our neighborhoods.

There was a reason the southerners formed citizen protection groups.
That reason?
The federal government was allowing the niggers to rape rob and murder southern whites after the war of northern aggression.

There’s a reason muslims form their own neighborhood protection groups.

Whites need to tribe up.

This is easy to analyze. No one wants to risk their life while fighting to defend totalitarianism. It is a sad day for our country. The early Christians did not sign up to fight for the people who were trying to destroy them. Why would we expect anything different today?

The blacks and Hispanics that are signing up for the military have no other place to go . Now add a system programed by design to convince white men how rotten they are as blacks and Hispanics are assigned better duty faster promotions 🖕
Naturally the recruiting officers are puzzled because they must work in a state of denial for their own protection believing or pretending to believe in DEI

Whites used to join out of patriotism.
Blacks only join for the social welfare benefits.

WHY SHOULD WE SERVE ALONG SIDE PEOPLE WHO ARE INDOCTRINATED TO HATE US??? IF YOU CAN’T RELY ON YOUR FELLOW SOLDIERS IN THE MIDDLE OF COMBAT THEN YOU ARE NO LONGER AND ARMY YOU ARE A MOB. THAT IS WHAT IS TAKING PLACE IN OUR ARMED FORCES NOWADAYS. I’VE SEEN AND EXPERIENCED RACISM IN THE ARMY ESPECIALLY FROM THE HIGHER UP RANKS AND LORD HELP YOU IF YOU HAD TO SERVE WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF BLACK SOLDIERS. I AM WHITE AND SERVED FOR 21 YEARS BEFORE I WAS MEDICALED OUT. I SAW FIRST HAND HOW WHITES WERE TREATED BLACK BLACK NCO’S AND OFFICERS AND THAT WAS 20 SOME YEARS AGO. THEY TALK ABOUT RACE TODAY BUT I WITNESSED DISCRIMINATION IN THE 80′ AND 90’S BOTH IN CONUS, GERMANY AND KOREA AND IT WASN’T WHITE ON BLACK IT WAS THE EXACT OPPOSITE. LIKE I SAID AN ARMY CAN’T FUNCTION LIKE THAT IT WILL BE DEFEATED ON THE BATTLE. IT’S EVEN WORSE NOW WITH THE ARMED FORCES BEING INDOCTRINATED WITH DEI AND TRANS CRAP. IF WE GET INTO A SHOOTING WAR WITH EITHER CHINA OR RUSSIA WE’RE GONNA GET OUR ASSES HANDED TO US.

Who the fuck is the “WE” that are going to get into a shooting War with JOSEY ALL CAPS????…the real enemy is domestic.

Don’t forget about all of those illegals that the US Government is offering citizenship to if the enlist … they’ll be used to kill US Citizens and have zero problems with doing so.

Also … the black and wetback gangs and the drug cartels in our armed services will go a long way toward their fighting ability if a shooting war ever erupts …

With the complexity of weapons systems and integration and coordination of forces doctrines there is a large and increasing requirement for Whites and Asians in leadership positions, garden variety bullet catchers can be any old color. Unfortunately military activities are very much unique in practice and adequate leadership requires experience in the field. Education alone doesn’t cut it. So the anti White racism is doubly self defeating. There aren’t enough Asians to fill the slots, Whites are rejected due to race, and the coloreds can’t perform the functions in adequate numbers.

Much like our airline industry is becoming fragile and increasingly dangerous due to inadequately capable people being promoted into positions of critical responsibility our military is demonstrating the same kind of deterioration.

The way to end discrimination based on race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.
