10. On War and Militarism





12/6/23
From The Bivouacs

             The great macht of the human animal is the ability to regiment and mobilize. These two concepts mark the vertices of militarism as an ethical and ontological philosophy integral for understanding Legiondom. Regimentation being the ability for man to overcome himself and his basal primitive tendencies, to go beyond the self-preservational egoism of man as homonid, and to join with other members of his species to form a mass. Mobilization being the pursuit of some desideratum by the conjoined efforts of many specialized actors in a syndicate.

      What is currently maligned as a chauvinistic mistake of the human community is veritably our greatest asset. Militarism, the ability to form militaries and think and act militaristically, is the most profound element of our continued success as a species. The argument for pacifism is characterably that of a lion whom, after slaying every animal on the praire and making itself king of the jungle, laments the use of claws for having achieved it. This perspective is warrantless and preposterous and indicates biased emotivistic relativism. 

      Militarism holds the potential to ameliorate the suffering of people on Earth, and adequately employed, can overcome the material and spatial boundaries for the sake of uniting arms and mobilizing resources to this end. Participation in a military entails some dimensions of will while reducing others. In a military, one is responsible for themself, their comrades, their subordinates, and their mission. As the popular adage goes, in an army one is not black or brown or white or yellow, everyone is green. The right to form individual biases is subordinated, the practicing of discriminations which jeopardize the mission become a liability, and with the loss of free will comes the liberty of freedom. The chain of command begins with the proctor of imperatives, which are then transformed into mission objectives and passed down rank from officers to the lower ranks. Within this chain, the ability to act outside what is mutually beneficial is restricted. With this lies the bold assertion that free will or “liberty” as we know it is a lie, fraud, a deliriant proffered to the masses which keeps them separate and cavebound. The potentiality exists to rid humanity of every known iniquity and yet millions are sacrificed for the sake of seclusion. This federalist fallacy undermines millenia of progress on the part of our ancestry for whom this gluttonous notion of liberty was never conceptualized. Post-agraria with the induction of capitalism and federalism, the sequestration from supply chains of the general populace, and thus, the redependencing of the state comprised of a mainfold of individuals divorced from their units has allowed the illusion of liberal egocentricity to germinate.
