To be or to do?

There was a fairly unknown military strategist in the Pentagon during the 70‘s and 80’s named John Boyd.  He is best known for creating the idea of the OODA (Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) loop for military operations, which I suggest reading about if you have the time (1). My point in writing about him here at BUGS relates to something he said that is relevant to the times that are approaching us as pro-White activists.  The following bold text was a retelling of a conversation that a junior officer had with John Boyd.

“One day you will come to a fork in the road,” he said. “And you’re going to have to make a decision about which direction you want to go.” He raised his hand and pointed. “If you go that way you can be somebody. You will have to make compromises and you will have to turn your back on your friends. But you will be a member of the club and you will get promoted and you will get good assignments.”Photobucket

Then Boyd raised his other hand and pointed another direction. “Or you can go that way and you can do something – something for your country and for your Air Force and for yourself. If you decide you want to do something, you may not get promoted and you may not get the good assignments and you certainly will not be a favorite of your superiors. But you won’t have to compromise yourself. You will be true to your friends and to yourself. And your work might make a difference.”

He paused and stared into the officer’s eyes and heart. “To be somebody or to do something.” In life there is often a roll call. That’s when you will have to make a decision. To be or to do. Which way will you go?” (2)

I think that most BUGSters would agree that we want to DO SOMETHING (end the program of White genocide) instead of BEING SOMEBODY.

We’re entering a time when people out of what we loosely call “the movement” are going to start getting opportunities to BE SOMEBODY.

When you see this, please remember something very important. Getting to BE SOMEBODY within the current anti-White system will very likely come at the cost of DOING SOMETHING (such as spreading our message and opposing White genocide).  A White Nationalist could be made President of the United States and he/she may be allowed to pass some immigration restriction legislation and put an end to some anti-White affirmative action policies.  But if this individual refuses to address White genocide (by force-mixing Whites with non-Whites) then it doesn’t matter if all three branches of the American government are filled so called “White Nationalists.”

The acid test (3) for any supposed pro-White  individual or pro-White group is the Mantra.

To be or to do.  Which way will you go?
