Right-wing Rep. Paul Gosar complains there aren't enough white recruits in U.S. military

[Superbadbrutha]

In a fundraising email titled “dismantling woke Marxist ideologies," right-wing GOP congressman Paul Gosar responded to a recent report showing that the number of white recruits in the military has dropped significantly, Vice News reported.

“The number of white recruits has plummeted,” Gosar wrote. “[It’s] a casualty of this cultural skirmish that has left our Army beleaguered and besieged by ‘woke’ ideologies.”

A recent investigation by Military.com found that there was a total of 44,042 new white Army recruits in 2018, but that number dropped consistently each year to a low of 25,070 in 2023.

In contrast, some white nationalists and neo-Nazis online celebrated Military.com’s findings, according to Vice's report.

“Reject the anti-white American Empire,” white nationalist publication VDARE declared in response to the report. Encourage your sons to stay far, far away from service to a nation that hates you… And guess what: It’s happening.”

“Young white men don’t want to fight for a regime that despises them,” far-right conspiracy theorist Paul Joseph Watson wrote on Telegram. “Who could have possibly anticipated this?”

Just listen to the excuses these right wing fools come up with.

If you think he is wrong, then how do YOU explain the drop in white recruits?

Well, president* Joe's military is a ghetto. Can you blame white folks for not wanting to go there?

Actually, Rep. Goser is middle of the road, not "far right" at all, SBB.

He was reelected in 2022 with a full 97% of the vote , hardly a sign of "extremism" particularly in a battleground state like Arizona.

To me, the drop, speaks to the opportunities in this economy and a generation not being told what to do or disciplined....ever.

So that would mean it dropped under Trump also.

I think the problem here is Biden's insistence on getting rid of "Dont Ask Dont Tell" and encouraging open perversion among the recruits.

This cuts down on the number of small town recruits, mostly honky, who aren't used to walking around and seeing men violate each other's butt holes.

A lot more black guys come from the big, supergay cities, or served time in the joint where they learned about not dropping the soap in the showers.

DADT was repealed in 2011.

Dont forget about the damage obama did to race relations and respect for the military during his 8 long years in the white house

Foolishly sending the military all around the globe did do a lot of damage for respect of the military. I've argued that for years.

I would feel more comfortable in expressing those sentiments in more diplomatic and gentle language.

Maybe something like:

This nation is changing very fast when it comes to matters of ethnicity and progressive views. So it is understandable that the number of Caucasian young gentlemen who wish to enter the military is plummeting.

During the Obama Regime.

I can't see where its a good idea to force young Normative men to shower and bunk with other fellows that are just seeking to take their cheeks.

Well-stated, sir. But Biden's military is still a fucking ghetto.

I agree that bush and obama seriously abused the military under their command by engaging in foreign wars

Bush in particular should have activated the draft and involved the entire nation in the war on terror

And if the nation is unwilling then dont invade Iraq or stay in afghanistan for 20 years

Gen Z seems more patriotic and work driven than others so I'm sure enlistment will be just fine.

Right-wing Rep. Paul Gosar complains there aren't enough white recruits in U.S. military​

Well, lessee, traditionally for 200 years, white kids made up the backbone of our military. They by and large created the military and by and large fought and won every major war--- that is, when we used to actually WIN wars!

So the question now becomes: if whites are now dramatically dropping off in recruitment, is it because they are choosing to and why? Shouldn't that be a matter of great concern? And if not, then the only other conclusion is that they are being RACIALLY EXCLUDED in a deliberate act of racist policy, instead filling the roles with minorities.

Kinda funny: had this been done years ago, a bunch of white guys slanting the military so that mostly only people of color and minorities had to fight foreign wars in combat and die, it would have been decried as slavery and abuse of minorities. Now you stupid fuckwits champion it as a banner of honor. Good for you, go fight and die in a foreign war! Sadly, it really signals the declining roles of our military and the declining competency and readiness of the USA to defend herself.
