这位退役陆军上校后来成为了社交媒体上的网红，曾与五角大楼合作推广国防部长皮特·赫格塞思（Pete Hegseth）的政策主张。他过去曾多次赞扬独裁者、贬低女性和少数族裔，并主张只有有孩子的人才应该被赋予投票权。
A retired Army colonel turned social media influencer, who has worked with the Pentagon to promote Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s agenda, has a history of praising dictators, denigrating women and minorities, and suggesting that only people with children should be allowed to vote.
库尔特·施利希特（Kurt Schlichter）在社交媒体平台 X 上拥有超过 62 万名粉丝，他经常发布支持赫格塞思反“觉醒主义”（anti-woke）政策的内容。上个月，《华盛顿邮报》（The Washington Post）在调查五角大楼如何利用网红担任文职职务时发现，施利希特是其中几名被授予政府官方电子邮件地址的人之一，并被派往负责国防部人事与战备工作的部门工作。
Kurt Schlichter has over 620,000 followers on X and has regularly posted in support of Hegseth’s anti-woke agenda. Last month, as part of an investigation into the Pentagon’s employment of influencers in civilian roles, The Washington Post found that Schlichter was one of several individuals to be given active government email addresses at the time and assigned to the undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness’s office.
根据《华盛顿邮报》的报道，施利希特在政府数据库中的身份标识为“HQE”，这可能代表“高素质专家”（highly qualified expert）。施利希特本人确认自己是一名文职政府雇员，隶属于一个专门打击军队院校中所谓“觉醒主义”思想的特别工作组。
According to reporting from the Post, Schlichter appears in the government database with the designation of “HQE,” which could stand for “highly qualified expert.”Schlichter confirmed that he was a civilian government employee, working as part of a task force rooting out so-called woke ideologies at the military’s war colleges.
然而，报道中并未提及施利希特近年来在社交媒体及其他平台上发布的那些宣扬极端主义、反民主观点的帖子。《WIRED》杂志对这些帖子进行了详细审查。
What wasn’t reported, however, were Schlichter’s posts on social media and other platforms in recent years that highlight extremist, anti-democratic worldviews. WIRED has reviewed many of these posts.
五角大楼新闻秘书金斯利·威尔逊（Kingsley Wilson）对《WIRED》表示：“五角大楼很自豪能有像库尔特·施利希特这样的爱国公民和退伍军人为我们的高级军事领导人才培养项目做出贡献。培养未来的军事领导者至关重要。”施利希特并未回应任何采访请求。目前尚不清楚他是否仍在为五角大楼工作。值得注意的是，威尔逊本人在加入五角大楼之前也曾分享过极端主义内容以及反犹太主义的阴谋论。
“The Department was proud to have a group of patriotic civilians and veterans like Kurt Schlichter contribute to our Senior Service College Task Force. Nothing is more important than the formation of our future military leaders," Kingsley Wilson, the Pentagon’s press secretary, tells WIRED. Schlichter did not respond to requests for comment. It’s not clear if Schlichter is still working with the Pentagon. Wilson herself shared extremist content and an antisemitic conspiracy theory prior to joining the Pentagon.
在 2021 年 8 月的一个 X（前 Twitter）帖子中，施利希特（Schlichter）呼吁对“自由主义者”采取专制手段进行打压。他写道：“我们必须想尽一切办法，迫使他们变得像我们一样；绝不妥协。”在该帖子中，他主张禁止一切可能威胁社会稳定的事物——从口罩、工会，到“批判种族理论”以及“左翼媒体”。去年，赫格塞斯（Hegseth）领导的美国国防部曾要求记者签署一份承诺书，禁止他们获取某些信息；大多数主流记者拒绝签署该承诺书并离开了五角大楼。
In an August 2021 thread on X, Schlichter demanded an authoritarian crackdown on “liberals.”“We must, by any means necessary, force them to be like us. No quarter. No compromise,” Schlichter wrote. In the thread, he advocates for banning everything from masks and unions to critical race theory and “leftist media.” (Last year, Hegseth’s Department of Defense required journalists to sign a pledge that would prevent them from gathering certain information. Most major journalists refused to sign the pledge and left the Pentagon.) In the same thread on X, Schlichter also suggested that people who don’t have children, who do not serve in the military, and who don’t own property should not be allowed to vote.
在同一帖子中，施利希特还提出：那些没有孩子、没有服过兵役、也没有财产的人不应被允许投票。他写道：“应该通过税收和对政治参与的资格限制来惩罚这种‘没有家庭责任感’的生活方式；只有拥有财产或服过兵役的人才能拥有投票权。”该帖子的内容被分享了 1 万次。
“Penalize barren, non-familial lifestyles through taxes and disqualification from political participation,” Schlichter wrote. “Establish property and military service qualifications for voting.”Posts in the thread were shared a combined 10,000 times.
施利希特还多次表达了对诸如智利的奥古斯托·皮诺切特（Augusto Pinochet）和西班牙的弗朗西斯科·佛朗哥（Francisco Franco）这类专制独裁者的赞赏。他在 2024 年 4 月的 X 帖子中称皮诺切特“过于温和”；2025 年 5 月，他转发了另一篇呼吁特朗普为西班牙法西斯分子提供庇护的帖子，并写道：“佛朗哥并没有做错任何事”；2025 年 12 月，他又将佛朗哥称为“西班牙的爱国者”。
Schlichter has also repeatedly expressed appreciation of murderous dictators like Chile’s Augusto Pinochet and Spain’s Francisco Franco. “Pinochet was too soft,” Schlichter wrote on X in April 2024. In May 2025, he quoted a post on X that called on Trump to offer asylum to Spanish fascists, writing: “Franco did nothing wrong.”In December 2025, Schlichter called Franco “a Spanish patriot.” (Under Pinochet’s dictatorship, tens of thousands of his citizens were tortured while thousands of his political opponents disappeared. During the Spanish Civil War, Franco’s Nationalists executed tens of thousands of dissidents while systematically raping women.)
在皮诺切特的统治下，数万名智利公民遭受了酷刑，数千名政治反对者失踪；而在西班牙内战期间，佛朗哥的国民军杀害了数万名异见者，并系统性地侵犯妇女的权利。此外，施利希特还多次攻击女性和少数族裔。2026 年 7 月，他在保守派网站 Townhall 发表的文章中声称，“自由主义女性”可能会终结西方文明。
Schlichter has also repeatedly lashed out at women and minorities. In an article for conservative website Townhall, published in July 2026, Schlichter suggested that “liberal women” could bring about the end of Western civilization.
“这些自以为是的老妇人简直是西方社会的祸害——一群顽固无知的女权主义者或沙文主义者，她们在世界舞台上上演着个人的心理闹剧；如果任由她们为所欲为，文明必将走向灭亡，”他写道。在同一篇文章中，他还攻击了移民，称他们为“堕落的第三世界农民”。在 X（一个社交平台）上，施利希特甚至更进一步，将移民称为“第三世界的野蛮人”和“半人半兽的野蛮生物”。
“These self-righteous crones are a pestilence, a plague upon Western society, a group of doggedly ignorant feminist/chauvinists playing out their personal psychodramas on the world stage whose antics, if unchecked, will inevitably lead to the fall of civilization,” he wrote. In the same article, he attacked immigrants, calling them “perverted Third World peasants.”In a post on X, Schlichter went even further, calling immigrants “Third World barbarians” and “semihuman savages.”
赫格塞斯在五角大楼推行基督教民族主义意识形态和“战士精神”，同时通过反对多元化和包容政策来破坏社会进步；他还阻止黑人及女性军官的晋升，并对那些他认为超重的士兵进行羞辱。
Hegseth has prioritized Christian nationalist ideology and a “warrior ethos” at the Pentagon while calling for an end of wokeness by attacking diversity and inclusion initiatives, halting promotions for Black and female officers, and fat-shaming troops he considers overweight.
