5. Legiondom
2-01-2024
From the Mount
Legiondom is a philosophical doctrine: a system of rule, a type of dominion, a code of ethics, a lens for critical analysis, a political belief. It is the propoundment of all human philosophies with intention, the culminative aims of effort in action and will with motion, the orchestration of human endeavor behind reason with purpose. It is the amalgam of centuries of holy legacy, the torch-bearing of an ancient consecution of legiondoms which have dictated to posterity. Thus as the legions before, so to the legions now, and to all legions shall be; legacy without end.
What is the Legion?
The Legion is the physical amalgum of militarism manifest. It encompasses the whole conscriptory, enlistry, and commissionary dedication of physical labor past, present, and future. This concept is transcendent of good or bad, various times in history have found the Legion in the derogation of ethics acting emancipate sui juris of all contemporary authority. The principle of the Legion is absent of moral weight, the Legion is and can be mobilized to ends of moral good or moral wrong. It is a contemporality that the Legion, under the Charter of St. Augustine, shall undertake war on behalf of good faith and safety. The Legion is its legacy. The long line of ancestral Legions, the translatio imperium whose torch has been passed from Legion to Legion raising the collectivity of imperium to its heights in each subsequent era. Wherever imperium resounds, the Legion is. Every great episode of history has had its Legion, in every great theatre where the wheel of humanity has turned. From the mountains to the sea, in war and in peace, where men strive in legacy for the furtherance of posterity, there is Legion.
- Militarism: regimentation/mobilization, strategy/tactics
- Legionarism: fighting beyond nationality, choosing your battles
- Legacy/legency: entelechy/imperium; self-determination and self-actualization
