UFC competitor Bryce Mitchell has once again sparked controversy with his latest podcast episode. He delivered a stark assessment of America’s current state, declaring that
“half of our country is fat and gay”
while warning about the nation’s diminished combat capacity.
The Arkansas native is known for his outspoken views. He made the comment while discussing what he perceives as America’s military vulnerabilities in the face of rising global tensions. Mitchell argues that the United States has been weakened by cultural shifts. He claims this has left the nation with
“very few actual fighters left in this country.”
“Who do you think’s going to do our fighting for us?”
Mitchell asked his audience during the episode of his controversial podcast “Arkansanity.”
“We are dwindled down to very few actual fighters left in this country. I’m telling you, our finest soldiers died in Iraq, Afghanistan.”
The MMA star’s comments came amid a broader critique of American foreign policy. He characterizes recent actions as misguided military interventions. Mitchell expressed particular concern about recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela. He believes they represent an “inside job” designed to lead America into an unwinnable conflict with Russia and China.
Mitchell didn’t hold back in his assessment of America’s military leadership. He pointed to controversies within the armed forces as evidence of institutional decay. He contrasted wounded veterans with what he called “demons” in leadership positions. He suggests the military has prioritized social agendas over combat effectiveness.
Throughout the episode, Mitchell positioned himself as a truth-teller willing to risk everything to warn Americans. He sees an imminent national collapse.
“I’m not pulling no punches,”
he declared.
“There’s going to be people that tell you we’re going to war with Venezuela for oil and we’re going to get this oil and it’s going to boost our economy. First off, we’re not going to get the oil.”
The UFC competitor also questioned America’s ability to project military power globally. He cited what he views as superior manufacturing capacity in China and stronger military alliances among adversarial nations.
“Russia and China’s got the same technology we have,”
Mitchell warned.
“We do not have the military superiority.”
