The Rise of Archeofuturist Warfare & the Achilles Option

Once upon a time, when we still had the illusion of having a country, I naïvely recommended that our guys enlist in the military. My advice to young white men is now the complete opposite, for two reasons. The first has to do with self-respect and self-preservation. I call it the Achilles Option. The second is to hasten the advent of an archeofuturist era of warfare, which is necessary if white nations are to defy the Eurasian powers.
When Agamemnon snubbed Achilles by taking his woman, Briseis, captive, Achilles and his elite Männerbund, the Myrmidons, refused to fight throughout most of the Trojan War, with disastrous consequences for the Greeks. If we respect ourselves and our nation, we should be just as stubborn as Achilles in refusing to fight for a regime that has not only snubbed us, but is actively replacing our race in our own homelands.
There is also a very real possibility that if you enlist today, you won’t only be dishonored but killed if there is an open conflict with one of the Eurasian powers — and not gloriously, but simply due to the regime’s gross incompetence.
Most white men already seem to understand this, as shown by recruitment statistics. The US Army missed its recruitment goal for 2022 by 25%, or 15,000 soldiers, due to a quietly growing “white strike.”
But those are rookie numbers! I still hear of a few good white men enlisting, usually out of desperation or a family tradition. Let’s examine why.
First, the hysteria about “extremism in the ranks” has reached such proportions that it is not enough for a soldier to be free of wrongthink. For instance, the FBI attempted to turn a Marine recruit into an informant simply because he was friends with someone who was allegedly part of the Patriot Front. When Private Paul Kaltenbach practiced the Marine values of honor, courage, and commitment by refusing both the feds’ coercive tactics and a bribe of $250,000, he was discharged. Given that more than 60 million Trump voters are now “extremists,” how can any recruit be sure that he won’t be targeted the same way?
Readiness is also plummeting, which is dangerous. While the F-35 is not a particularly good aircraft and is the subject of much ire, their current state is indicative of a broader declining trend. Only 53% of them are currently “mission capable,” despite the fact that the goal was 65%, and less than 30% of them are “full mission capable,” compared to 39% in 2020. Most competent flight line chiefs are rural whites despised by the regime, so this isn’t surprising.
Nor is it particularly reassuring that the results of unclassified wargames predict that the United States would lose two aircraft carriers and several other ships in a conflict with China over Taiwan. But at least everyone’s online sensitivity training was accomplished!
There is of course much more, but the preceding should be sufficient to show that the military is like an addict who has no hope of getting better until he hits rock bottom and then goes to rehab. This will probably entail a humiliating defeat at the hands of China, Russia, and/or Iran. You don’t want to be anywhere near the battlefield this when it happens, especially on behalf of a regime that hates you and caused the slide into incompetence which precipitated the crisis in the first place.
Until there is a complete, 180-degree turnaround at the top, one should not be fooled by any flimsy pretenses that claim that the military is no longer woke. The Army revived the “Be All You Can Be” slogan and was roasted in YouTube comments for it being laughably unrealistic. The campaign was ended — not for this reason, but because its black narrator was arrested for what appears to be domestic violence in yet another example of the military’s dysfunction.
The only sensible and honorable option at this point is to stay aloof from this dumpster fire in the same way as Achilles and the Myrmidons.
As the Russian invasion of Ukraine is demonstrating, war is changing and becoming an eclectic blending of the archaic and futuristic. Drones and satellites fly above trenches, while tanks and planes (the previous era of warfare’s ruinously expensive Wunderwaffen) are now being outclassed by time-tested infantry and artillery tactics.
Mastery of this new style of archeofuturist warfare will be essential for victory, and the Eurasian powers obviously have a head start in both hardware, such as hypersonic missiles, and doctrine. Catching up will require more than just integrating drones into infantry units, or bulking up divisions and preparing them for sustained operations against a serious foe.
Archeofuturist warfare will require profound changes in the concept of the warfighter which will be at odds with the values of modern liberal democracy, as epitomized in the meme of the “zogbot” — a combination of the acronym for “Zionist Occupation Government” and the word “robot.”
The switch to archaism will require increasing levels of technical expertise as well as a hierarchy of various tiers of troops. As of now, the military loves to pretend that everyone in the ranks is equal, from the cook to the command echelons, which is a clear reflection of democracy’s leveling values. An exception, of course, is special forces, which is born out of necessity, but this clear contradiction is coming to a head with soldiers in special forces units developing burnout as a result of their constant deployments. They are followed by the Marines, who are more trained for offensive combat and are deployed to take territory with minimal hardware support. Then there is the Army, which has a more defensive role and is heavily reliant on hardware. Those in combat arms and specialized intelligence fields are not the same as cooks and so on, and it is condescending to pretend otherwise.
You can buy Georges Sorel’s Reflections on Violence from Imperium Press here.
A nation that wants to be successful instead of adhering to outdated notions of equality will embrace this hierarchy as ancient Rome’s legions once did. Their troops were organized based on the type of equipment they could afford and their level of experience. It may also require further specialization among soldiers, as Mathias Corvinus of Hungary did with his Black Regiment.
The saying about gear is that “one size fits none,” and this is equally applicable to troop classification. The zogbot will have to be replaced by a hierarchy of troops.
The social ramifications of this should be obvious. For all of the establishment’s hand-wringing about “disparate impact” — policies that have negative outcomes for certain protected classes of individuals — it is perfectly fine with disparate impact when it goes against whites, such as we saw in Operation Iraqi Freedom, where 3,645 out of the 4,418 soldiers killed in action were white. But modern liberal democracy would recoil from the idea of a hierarchical military based on quality, as it would invariably prioritize white men for the critical roles, leaving the browner masses in support roles. White men are simply better at most things, so meritocracy inherently favors us.
If a white strike against enlistment breaks the regime’s military, out of desperation they will have to fill the gap somehow. Some are worried that they will flood the ranks with non-white troops who will have no qualms about turning on whites if ordered to do so. This has already been happening to a small degree, but thankfully these concerns are mostly unfounded given that such troops are usually worse than useless.
It is more likely that the establishment will have to rely on private mercenary companies, as did the decadent republics of Renaissance Italy. This is great for white men, because we have the skills needed for such enterprises. There is more expertise in arms outside the military than in it, especially given that they have been hemorrhaging talent — and most of that expertise is white.
The rise of mercenary companies was foreshadowed in America by the Blackwater Company, which has rebranded, and is further underway with PMC Wagner, which has gone toe-to-toe with Ukraine’s armed forces. The Azov Battalion in some ways resembles a mercenary company, whose radical nationalist politics the Ukrainian government had to tolerate out of expediency. Love them or hate them, these forces are interesting case studies of what the future may hold.
Admittedly, mercenaries have many downsides, as Machiavelli understood: they can be disloyal, plunder in peacetime, desert in wartime, and so on. But because our enemies are in power, these negatives are actually positives. If the regime had to rely on mercenary companies, white men with healthy beliefs could plunder the regime by demanding lavish salaries instead of accepting peanuts for enlisted pay. It would also open new avenues for adventure. But most importantly, it might eventually allow us to dominate the state. Rome in late antiquity relied on German troops and generals, and eventually the Germans came to rule what was left of the Empire.
Despite this, the use of mercenaries would still ironically cause a net increase in America’s warfighting potential. The emasculation of the armed forces by liberal democracy far surpasses any problems a reliance on mercenaries could cause.
A white strike against enlistment could also cause the federal government to rely more on the state-level forces. I do not recommend that any of our guys enlist in the National Guard or reserves anytime soon. But if the regime ends up having to rely on the states for manpower, that will naturally empower state governors, regardless of what any piece of paper says. And since red states have the best troops, they will be the most empowered, thus contributing to a de facto national divorce.
Such a trend could eventually slide into a form of neo-feudalism in which the President has to appease the states and their governors so that they will continue to supply troops for his endeavors. Such a scenario would be reminiscent of the Holy Roman Empire, which safeguarded the liberty of the German people and low-level nobles via a complicated system of checks and balances based on loyalty and military might.
Almost all of our problems are at least in part caused or exacerbated by federal overreach. Anything that empowers the states and undermines the federal regime is therefore a blessing for whites. As it is said by the Imperium of Man in the baroque science fiction franchise Warhammer 40K: “Divided we stand, united we fall.”
Archeofuturist warfare will ideally culminate in a Starships Troopers style of nationalism in which the current regime is supplanted by a military republic, as envisioned by Robert A. Heinlein. Until then, let us stand aside and monitor the situation as Achilles did. By managing our thirst for adventure in the present, we can help ensure that our sons will be able to win honor for themselves and their nation as free men — instead of becoming zogbots in the service of an evil regime.

I can see the regime bringing back the draft. Let them send their freshly hatched Somalis off to die. The lead story in Vdare today delved into Mexicans in the marines.
A draft would be interesting because the vast majority of Americans are unfit to serve for various reasons. If the remaining all claim to be “extremists” the regime will be up a creek without a paddle. Aside from that it’s very easy to claim to have mental health issues like depression, alcoholism etc.
In this day and age it’s very easy to HAVE mental issues like depression and alcoholism.
They seem to be loosening the fitness standards.
I don’t believe a draft would work at this point, not only because of the lack of people qualified to serve, but also I believe that there would be a massive pushback from whites who are eligible. All branches of the military are lowering there standards in attempt to get recruits, this includes lowering weight and physical standards as well. We need to keep the momentum going with this. We need former officers and NCOs to communicate to normies that the military is inhospitable to whites and that there are negative consequences to enlistment.
“When Agamemnon snubbed Achilles by taking his woman, Briseis, captive, Achilles and his elite Männerbund, the Myrmidons, refused to fight throughout most of the Trojan War.”
This is a slight but significant inaccuracy. Achilles only refused to fight for most of The Iliad, which took place over a period of several weeks during the ten-year Trojan War. For most of those ten years he was fighting.
You want a military (or para-military) that is truly dangerous to one’s enemies? Then you don’t want to turn to ‘hierarchy’ or any of that other right-wing clap-trap. What you want is unpredictability.
Make it impossible for the enemy to know what kind of units they are facing and they have to prepare for everything.
Ever wonder why ‘combined arms’ units exist? It’s because the enemy has to prepare for multiple types of assaults from those units. It forces the enemy to invest more in intelligence than would normally be necessary in order to ascertain enemy capabilities.
High-mobility, high-lethality is the future.
It’s velociraptor versus brontosaurus.
Don’t be the brontosaurus.
Coordination of combined arms – of smaller units with more diverse kinetic possibilities – what is tearing even high-grade, high-tech armies to pieces.
Hierarchy isn’t the answer.
Coordination – networking – is.
Like it or not, hierarchy is the natural order in any well-functioning organization.
In my experience, when playing Risk you knew you hadn’t a prayer if you were initially dealt “Ukraine”, “Afghanistan”, “North Africa”, and “Middle East”.
Today’s war hawks in the administration clearly never conquered the world when in their teens.
Playing ‘map games’ like HOI4 are ironically better preparation for geopolitics than whatever drivel the regime’s leaders are being taught in school.
True! In the past, these games were created based on objective facts of history and realpolitic, but nowadays schools teach everything through ideological (read crazy) lenses.
A badly needed and appreciated commentary for these times. A “White Strike” on the part of young (or older) White men is clearly called for. Not only civilian leftists are berating the entire White race, with books such as “White Fragility”, etc., but the media roundtables as well are taking daily swipes at ‘old White men’ who run our corporations , our civilian police forces and legal systems.
However, the most obvious anti-White signaling comes from a high-ranking military official — I can’t remember his, or its name — who dresses in a long blond wig, a full military uniform with ribbons of rank and valor, and a skirt! That is the most off-putting sight for any wannabe-enlistee, I would think.
You are right to say that the White men of this country have no reason to fight for this country anymore, nor do women. White men are the strongest, most courageous and intelligent men in the military ranks, and if certain people do not stop ‘bad mouthing’ them, then this country is slipping into disaster, even including takeover.
I strongly disagree with the notion that White Nationalists should avoid military service.
In my view, I don’t even see how Nationalism is even possible without a strong cadre of people with prior-service experience.
About fifty years ago when I was not quite a wee teenager they ended the Draft. Yay! Since no-win wars were fashionable in those days, I did not miss the looming prospect of getting conscripted, and I was not happy in 1980 when Jimmy Carter brought back Draft registration, which was his response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the taking of U.S. embassy staff as hostages in Teheran.
I had a little more confidence in the top Cold War leadership when Gov. Reagan was elected, and so I signed up for a hitch in the Army. I never regretted it.
Over forty years ago I took great pride in being one of the handful of kids from either the South or the West who could actually use a rifle competently. They actually taught us hunter safety and how to shoot in the 7th grade in Idaho. Even the girls were taught how to shoot in gym class.
Ronald Reagan, the Hollywood actor, was not actually much better as a commander-in-chief than the peanut farmer when in 1983 he sent Marines for a photo-op in Beirut after the Israeli invasion fiasco, and those Marines then predictably became targets of a Shiite truck bombing that killed 241.
I didn’t support the First Gulf War and I immediately saw through the WMD story of the Second Gulf War. The Cold War was over and I was no longer in uniform, but I could see immediately the error of calling for any overseas military campaign when they refused to even mildly secure the border from Third World blowback or any tulip-headed Jihadi who had a hankering to come over for a helping of freedom fries.
That being said, the military is a necessary evil ─ but I reiterate how important it is for Nationalists to learn what you can about military leadership and experience national service. There was a time not long ago when it was seen as an essential part of statecraft and citizenship itself.
The Draft was once a great class-leveling institution where even the scions of Wall Street like Jack Kennedy actually did their bit of military service. I would support the reinstitution of the Draft now if there could be some legal guarantees against willy-nilly global interventionism without benefit of a real attack or an actual war. But that is the rub, of course.
I wasn’t Rambo, but if somebody ordered me to guard a Post Office or a Piggly Wiggly, I would have known how to do it ─ to report anything suspicious, and to not quit my post until properly relieved. All soldiers are trained to do this.
Long before panacea air strikes and smart bombs, that is how you hold ground. Ultimately that is how governments themselves work and keep order ─ without which life itself would be solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.
Citizenship should have some core civic responsibilities to bear ─ but in any case, I think the idea that the alien system is going to magically collapse if White people from the South just quit enlisting in the military is complete nonsense.
I have (perhaps naïvely) been expecting a general system collapse since the Aerospace recession of 1971, which preceded the Arab Oil Embargo of 1973 and the Iranian Hostage Crisis of 1979 ─ an entire decade of economic “stagflation” and structural unemployment. That was what the world was like when I came of age.
When Zoomers whine that we Boomers sucked up the fat of the land somehow and that they are paying for it now, I just want to make them drop for 70 pushups for their stupidity and lack of historical perspective and insight.
The only thing that has changed is that the decline continues to accelerate uncontrollably, and it seems to be designed exactly that way. And yes, I can fondly remember (albeit dimly) what the country was actually like before diversity became our “strength” some time in the 1960s before they were a gleam in their grandparent’s eye.
I never recommended that young men sign up to fight ZOG wars. However, I do think that White men need military training somehow ─ and that it is maybe more important than ever. There is simply no other way to learn that kind of leadership, and get the government to train you at that.
Do pick an occupational specialty that has more value than Grunt, of course. I would recommend a real hitch for a few years and not something in the National Guard or Reserves where you will likely be bored and not have as much opportunity to be promoted and to develop your career but still be liable for the “backdoor Draft” kind of personally-inconvenient deployments normalized by chickenhawks like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
Also, I’m very suspicious about the horror stories of “the government” recruiting informants against White supreemists. If I were so approached, I think I would treat the situation as a security breech about the same as if a hot East German blonde suddenly wanted me to photocopy the fire escape map of the crypto building where I worked, ostensibly on behalf of her poor Uncle Vanya. Yeah, whether it is the KGB or the FBI, I pretty much know exactly what I would do and would report it immediately and before I got compromised with something stupid.
I don’t see any way that military experience can be replaced by those who call themselves Nationalists. We are hamstringed already by too many former Libertarians and Leftists as far as I’m concerned.
My Dad was an Aerospace and Nuclear “Senior Scientist,” or what would essentially be a reliability engineer, who basically redesigned the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Boosters for Thiokol chemical after the 1986 Space Shuttle explosion. Our family moved around a lot and he analyzed data from nuclear tests near Las Vegas, and worked with generals and colonels and defense contractor management nitwits at various National Labs for his entire career. He was not especially pleased when I joined the Army instead of going on an LDS mission. I did what I thought was right and would have done it again with the benefit of hindsight.
My nephew went to the Naval Academy and they even gave him a two-year furlough to complete an LDS mission overseas. After graduation, he was able to start a huge family right out of the gate without having to work up the corporate food chain at an Applebee’s or a Blockbuster Video. Now he’s studying to be a medical doctor.
I certainly don’t like the fact that the military now aspires to the Burger King Kid’s Club in their recruiting advertisements. But Zoomers need to find ways out of their Mom’s basement and to live real lives. I don’t think they should be fighting ZOG wars, but I don’t share the fears of those who shun military service.
The U.S. military is not reaching its recruitment goals so that gives enlistees some leverage in finding the job training that they can get. It also gives them a chance of getting a University education without the accumulation of massive amounts of crippling debts.
And to be honest, I have never found less meritocracy than in the corporate world, compared to the military. I am not saying that you should make it a career, but I doubt that the U.S. military is Pozzed as badly today as many think it is. They sound like they have never seen a college campus or worked in an office.
I am not saying that White Nationalism needs more Rambos. But I don’t see any other way to fill a need that cannot be met any other way.
I trained at Fort Gordon, Georgia, the home of the U.S. Army Signal Corps. The post is named after the great Confederate Lt. Gen. John Brown Gordon, who also served as a U.S. Senator and the Governor of the state.
Soon Fort Gordon will be renamed after Gen. Dwight David Eisenhower, not a Jew but a man whom I admire far less. This will be a very sad day for me.
Just for fun, Fort Gordon is where the fictional Colonel Walter Kurtz (played by Marlon Brando) trained from the classic movie Apocalypse Now. Fort Gordon is next door to Fort Benning, the Army’s Infantry school. We lived in the old wooden WW2 era barracks which have now been torn down. I proudly use General Gordon’s likeness as an avatar on other forums.
I have a direct ancestor who served as a gunsmith in Col. Gordon’s regiment (a different Gordon) for the CSA and who died of starvation and disease in a Union PoW camp in Illinois a few weeks before Abraham Lincoln was shot. My ancestor never owned any slaves and he and his family did nothing to deserve what Mr. Lincoln had wrought. I did not have any personal experience with the South when I got off the plane in Georgia and was hit by a blast of humid air ─ but in the Army I really learned to love Southern patriotism and hospitality, and even the Blacks were fairly-well minded (mostly) in those days.
Whether it is the military or college or life itself, you have to take control of what you can make of it. Unfortunately it is hard to know what you should do like you are 60 when you are just 20 and staring into the void. I wish that I had earnestly talked to more old timers when I was young.
🙂
I strongly disagree with the notion that White Nationalists should avoid military service.
Even though the military has adopted the anti-white woke ideology?
Things are not always as monolithic as it seems. My first military experience was being sworn in by a Negress Air Force Lieutenant. This did not exactly bode well but I did not quit either. Even though I do seriously dislike the 15th and the 17th Amendments, I was sworn to protect the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and I didn’t have a problem with that. We don’t live in a perfect world, so we should stop catastrophizing.
🙂
The real source of the recruitment dearth is the string of no-win wars that seemed to require a never-ending supply of personnel, very few of whom actually worked in combat arms or front-line positions. I suspect that this will heal itself, as the demand for high-caliber recruits will create a virtual caste system, with the smart white guys at one end and nonwhite grunts at the other. The latter will prove a waste of money and space, so will be avoided. Little need for cannon fodder. Recruitment standards thus will go up. Just cutback on needless recruiting.
Your suggestion seems sensible in almost every conceivable way except, critically, for how it aligns with what the people who wield decision-making power are doing, which is continuing to lower recruitment standards to wallpaper over the problem. This wallpapering phenomenon has been documented by writers on this site (broadly described as “the ability to misread data”) as a fundamental tendency of military top brass and a natural product of the careerism required to reach such echelons. This, combined with live international reports of various law & order roles like police and firefighters being opened to staffing by multifarious flavors of migrant-this and refugee-that presents a serious and potentially fatal complication.
What you say: that’s because the military have functioned as a sort of welfare-state safety net for a good part of the population (and not merely nonwhites), the way low-level civil service employment does in France. But the system isn’t viable.
This article comes on the heels (hey we are talking about Achilles here!) of Sgt. Perry, the white guy who shot amd killed a BLM protestor who pointed an ak47 at him while his car was surrounded by other BLM protestors. He has just been found guilty of murder. The police didn’t push charges but the Soros backed DA did. This of course comes a year or two after the reverse situation where a Trump protestor and veteran Lee Keltner was shot and killed by an unlisted security guard after Keltner sprayed mace due to the tense situation. The Denver DA where this took place did not push charges arguing there was self-defense. The limiting factor here of course is politics.
The best course to take is anti-Americanism. It appears normie Cuckservatives have defaulted back to their original anti-military position because they regularly disparage the ‘woke’ troops they used to salute. We never had a standing peacetime army until WWII. Any white man who enlists is a traitor to our people. You’re willing to risk your life fighting and dying for ZOG, including against other whites (Russians) just for 30 pieces of silver or ‘tradition.’
I am not going to shill for Pro-Americanism ─ whatever is meant by that ─ but this is why I think there are too many “former” Leftists in White Nationalism, and I am just not seeing the benefits of our contemporary society where almost no White man in today’s America has any military experience whatsoever. Contrast this with even fifty years ago. Perhaps it is no surprise why we keep losing and that the losses accelerate with each generation. I just don’t understand how Nationalists can conscientiously NOT train and to prepare and even possibly to fight for Nation and State, and Race, even for a flawed regime. I am an Isolationist but not a Pacifist. I don’t want our people fighting wars that are not in the National or Racial interest. That sickens me, and we do need to be vigilant about mendacious jingoism. But more flaccid peace-creeps and weed enjoyers are definitely not the path to victory for the White Race. If I were a young man today I would enlist, although I would choose my career path wisely, and certainly not with an adventurous goal of fighting more foreign wars. In any case, Nihilism is not going to drive the you-know-whos out of the woodwork ─ but vigilant soldiers and ex-soldiers might. At least they can carry that mantle. Let’s learn how to properly differentiate who are the real traitors. Good leaders are always a scarce commodity. And these are skills that are not easy to develop.

The comments on the latest US recruiting ads were great. There is nothing more demoralizing to our enemies than mocking them and staying aloof. (Contribute as little as possible to a regime which detests you).
“White Strikes” is (legal) passive resistance, which results in a Force Multiplier effect.
Interesting and informative piece.
A war is a potential crisis.
A lost war is a real crisis which can be exploited by a forward thinking dissident movement.
The US was routed out of Afghanistan less than two years ago. Having learned nothing, the Pentagon is now revving up to fight a war against both Russia and China. And this with a Homeland that has open borders, cities trashed by crime and drug addiction, an industrial base scattered all over the third world, half the citizenry claiming a stolen election, military recruiting goals going unmet, and generals who cannot even protect the names of their own bases.
How’s that Great Eurasian-Eastasian War gonna work out?
The level of Beltway echelon delusion today in 2023 is incredible. It’s like Russia in the opening weeks of World War I. Look what happened three years later in 1917 in places like Petrograd.
What is to be done?
In the aftermath of the 1975 Communist victory in Vietnam, a Military Reform Movement arose in the US armed forces. The Movement turned things around, restoring morale and establishing new doctrines. The payoff came with US operational victories in 1991’s Desert Storm and the 2001-03 stage of the Persian Gulf War.
The Dissident Right can become a nexus for a similar reform movement, providing forums for veterans and experts advocating for a nationalist military. There are lots of possibilities for running articles, publishing books, and podcasting commentaries. C-C has run some interesting pieces covering cutting edge topics like Fifth Generation Warfare and Alt-Tech cyber, not to mention military history from the Confederacy to the Rhodesian Bush War. Let’s see more.
Archeofuturist warfare? Promote Guillaume Faye’s works and do not forget Julius Evola and Ernst Junger to create the intellectual foundations. There are lessons-learned from the Azov folks about political soldiering.
Might be useful to get someone with a legal background to provide advice to military personnel who run afoul of the Regime. Make the Dissident Right the go-to place for personnel being purged.
Don’t rule out the National Guard and State Militias. Governors and state legislatures can provide some pushback against Regime indoctrination of the troops if properly lobbied. There are National Guard associations that can exert some leverage.
And yes, let’s see great American military leaders, South and North, being remembered for the day in which their names can be restored to places of honor at military bases and public squares.
Victory, like the future, is there for those who show up for it.
