As Twitchy pointed out a couple of weeks ago, the CIA has put out some terribly woke recruitment ads, featuring a woman who refuses to be put in a box and then proceeds to check every box of identity politics: she’s an intersectional cisgender millennial woman of color tired of misguided patriarchal ideas, and the CIA is the place for her.
Brandon Morse of Twitchy sister-site RedState has a righteous thread on the U.S. Army’s new recruitment ad, which is animated and spends the first minute-and-a-half of its two-minute run time showing a girl being raised by two mothers and marching in pride parades — that shows that she was fighting for freedom even as a teen. Then she graduated from college and decided she wanted to be a killing machine.
Wow.
First it was the woke CIA ad, now it is a super-woke woke animated army recruitment ad featuring a lesbian wedding, an LGBT rights parade and women "shattering stereotypes" by joining the world's largest killing machine. pic.twitter.com/xDqP39EQei

Compare the New Woke U.S. Army Ad to a Russian Army Ad and Pray for the West https://t.co/6jNkeYErcM

This should scare you and not in the way SJWs would laugh about. This is our military, the thing that stands between the western world and actual evil, showing off how far it’s strayed from being an effective war fighting entity and moved more toward a political activist org.

It inspires no patriotism. No sense of pride in being an American. It doesn’t even give a reason to fight for it beyond a selfish need to “break barriers” and change things from within it.

Here's the thing. While the woke are "breaking barriers" within our military to make it more politically correct Sergei and his fellow soldiers are out there actually breaking the enemy. They have no identity crisis. They know exactly what they are and what they need to do.

The west will from external forces because the United States allowed its military to fall from internal forces. We sacrificed duty, skill, and the willingness to brutally shed the blood of our enemies in order to keep up with modern political trends. Our enemies aren't so stupid.
— Brandon Morse (@TheBrandonMorse) May 13, 2021
Just to be absolutely clear, our modern political trends are filled with things that our enemies torture and kill people for. You think woke politics will save you from ideologies that kill people for being gay, trans, or even the wrong race?

You think our enemies support woke politics because they agree? No, they fuel that fire because it weakens us. They want feminism to take over the military because driving masculinity out of it makes it easier to defeat.

We're so spoiled by our first-world lives that we think we're going to be okay but the truth is that we're safe because deadlier and more brutal men than us kept us that way and now we've spit on them, called them toxic, and told them to leave their post.
— Brandon Morse (@TheBrandonMorse) May 13, 2021
Now we're replacing soldiers with political activists and putting them in military garb. They aren't warfighters, they're self-obsessed identitarians playing dress-up. Meanwhile, our enemies are training deadly killers and laughing at us.

You can scoff at my "sexism" or "phobia" all you want on this subject, but if the worst comes to pass then you can damn well bet the people you handed the U.S. to are going to shrug at your accusations while they herd you in front of a firing line.

Morse is right; they’re taking political activists and putting them in military clothing.

Went to UC Davis so she could be an E4 in the Army?

They're literally doing the meme and it is indescribably depressing

“Wow” was all I could muster here. Recruiting is just so repulsive to me from the time I was a teenager just learning about CIA and our military operations in the Middle East and South America. That was the 90s, it’s just gotten more sickening

This is a joke, surely. WTF is happening in US.

How did they make something worse than the CIA ad? How?!

It's pretty simple really. All they do is open their portal to the hell dimension and see what crawls out.

Woke killing machines.

I remember laughing at that Iranian guy calling America the great Satan. Oh how blissfully ignorant those days were.

You just have to be woke and everything can be either justified or forgotten.

CCP making ads for the US Army. Stunning and brave.

There are actually five of these animated videos, and yes, they’re diverse.
