Military Recruitment Ads: China vs Russia vs USA. We are Screwed!

I don’t know why China or Russia don’t just get it over with now while we have a leader who don’t have a clue what is going on. They could overtake us in a heartbeat as screw up as the USA is now. I doubt Dumb Nuts Biden even knows how to use the “ launch codes”.

You've had every chance to show me examples. If I were making a similar claim I'd have plenty of examples posted by now.



My bigotry is all in your head. I can't do anything about your own creations.
No you stated your bigotry, once you got off the nonsense that the military is all about killing people and not the self, and then admitted that military ads are about self improvement and self actualization, all you said was why did they have to show her two moms, which meant you had an issue with showing two moms. That's bigotry. Imagine a the recruit had one black parent and one white parent and they showed both parents in the ad and your final post was why did they show the recruit had parents of different races.... come on man, that's bigotry. Why shouldn't they show those parents? And the answer you have pretended to settle on is no military ads should ever show the parents of the recruit. LOL

You are really embarrassing yourself pretending to believe that zero military ads before this one have ever featured parents of the recruit in the ad. LOL.

This video isn’t anything new, it’s not even surprising anymore. I can tell you that the “soft” Army started 10+ years ago, I enlisted towards the beginning of the soft era. I remember my Drill Sergeants complaining that they had the impossible job of trying to make war fighters but having to coddle recruits throughout the process. War doesn’t coddle anyone, and babying trainees just sets them up for failure. Enemies foreign and domestic aren’t going to coddle anyone and they don’t care about anyones background.

The people that would feel inspired to enlist from that commercial make up such a minuscule percentage of the military that it seems ridiculous to waste an ad campaign on them. Seriously most people walk in to recruiting offices because they think they're going to play real life Call of Duty while they get their college paid for, it’s not even for pride in country anymore. Regardless of anyones background or reason that they enlisted, they still wear the same uniform and are held to the same standards as anyone else and will be treated as such, that’s it and should be the end of it. You’re a green body and your most unique feature is the last name on your chest, and your job is to be a soldier. Leave your background and opinions at home and focus more on the flag on your right shoulder and the patch on your left shoulder instead.
