The Woke Backlash

Some of the comments on the Army's latest recruiting video with only white males in it:

“Noticing an unusual lack of forced diversity here. What are you plotting?”

“No time for diversity now that it’s wartime, huh guys?”

“You think you can seriously fool people with an all white ad after years of shoving “diversity” down our throats?”

“Can’t hit those recruitment goals so you’re trying to reach out to Midwestern and southern white guys again, huh?”

“White men in an army commercial instead of obese they/thems telling their story how the army helps them live their life as a poly cat family? You must be looking for bullet catchers to fight another BS sand war. Too late, pass.”

“Recruitment is down; global threats are up. Looks like it’s time to ditch the “my two moms” Army ads and target the warrior class again.”

“Toning down the diversity push now huh? Is that a sign of something brewing with what’s going on over seas? Finally noticing the they/thems aren’t really cutting it?”

“As a white cis male descended from people who’ve fought in most conflicts this country has seen going back to the Revolutionary War: I feel that joining up would be merely getting in the way of our BIPOC and LGBTQP2A+ troops, wasting valuable resources better spent on them, the true strength and future of this country.”

“I don’t want to support the patriarchy or take spots away for marginalized groups, so I speak for all white men, we will sit this one out.”

“I want to wish all the LGBTQA+, Illegals and feminists all the best with processing at MEPS. You’ve got this!”

“Now they have no choice but to beg the people who have always been the majority of the warriors to fight their wars again. It’s a little too late now, and I think they realize that.”

“Why are they trying to recruit “extremists” all of a sudden?”

"The FBI would be putting the guys in this ad on a terror watch list. Our president has said they are the greatest threat to the nation.”

“Where’s all the people you pandered to for years?”

“Funny how a war is fixing to start and all of the diversity disappears in recruiting ads.”

“Oh no… the DEI officer has been fired?”

“Interesting how diversity takes a holiday when America needs a functioning military.”
