CIA Latinx recruitment video

Might be viral enough to warrant an entry .

Basically, it's a 2-minute recruitment ad for the CIA featuring a Hispanic woman named Mija who talks about how she's intersectional, "perfectly made," and a "cisgendered millennial," as well as every other piece of Corporate HR Department jargon you can think of.

The original video was released on March 25. It remained pretty obscure until the CIA tweeted it out last Wednesday, causing it to go viral. A clip of the video that I saw floating around Twitter currently has over 2 million views.

It's being panned by a lot of prominent figures on both sides of the aisle in politics and journalism. Some examples: Don Jr., Glenn Greenwald, Michael Tracey, Ben Shapiro, Hasan Piker (and most of Breadtube).

HOLY SHIT.

This is the worst fucking CIA ad they could have made.

It's so bad I actually understand why people would make conspiracies about how it can be so bad.

This looks like far-lefty talking points turned into a human spokesperson for the CIA.

We are reaching levels of political absurdity that I thought Trump took with him.

Finally watching this, you could take the CIA stuff out and this could feel like any video you'd see from some corporation that tries to look woke and modern on the surface while the underneath of it would still terrible for a woman or some a minority to join in. Serious note, if they were serious in celebrating their non-white employees, that's nice and all but there's a level of cringe or laughs or whatever the term is to this whole thing. That aside, at least we got more diversity to the glow in the dark agents if one were to run them over like the late Terry Davis of Temple O/S said.

Why is Princess Adora making recruitment videos for the US Army? Also the one mom looks like Hank Hill mixed with a bit of Bayonetta.

Skeletor-sm
