The Worst Army Commercials ever made. Get ready for Cringe

All the Stuff with all the links @: angry-cops.com
If you thought "an Army of One" was bad, get ready for "The Calling." the US Army Recruiting command ran a new series of commercials for a recruiting effort, named The Calling. All but one ended up being a cringe knock off Anime cartoon. Angry Veteran breaks it down for everyone wether or not they were a Soldier.

Russia and China are both authoritarian nations who control the culture and design a pro-nationalist curriculum, specifically for the purpose of making recruitment into their army more common and more ruthless. The reality is that, whilst this is a shitty, cringey ad, this is the kind of audience that the US has to cater too. Expand your outreach. Gen Z is the most Liberal population of any previous generation. And they're traditionally more anti-army, more anti-nationalism, and care more about new-age social issues than any other generation. So how do you get the libbies to join? Convince them that the Army has become woke, snag them in, and then BAM you've filled your positions and armed forces units. Or ya know just make the same Chinese/ Russian die for country, yay nationalism, kill the baddies, adverts that in recent times also coincide either a limited number of applicants and the smallest armed forces in decades. Yeah lets address low recruitment numbers by running the same ads. Or...and let's be smart, try your hand at crappy woke ads and see what ends up sticking! See, think with the brain. Gotta do trial and error. But it's apparent that woke is the way to go. Whether anyone likes it or not. Even the army gone work. It's just business I guess.

"So how do you get the libbies to join? Convince them that the Army has become woke, snag them in, and then BAM you've filled your positions and armed forces units." Those are not people you want in any military. The majority of our schools and our pop culture has been infiltrated by Marxists and they have wrecked many US institutions. We need to fix the institutions first by getting rid of the cultural Marxists and this "woke" garbage.
