Would anyone even fall for this? Yes, there are young boys beaten down enough to need female approval in everything, but would they even be able to pass the tests necessary to become soldiers?
The very basic academic requirements along with the physical fitness requirements are a major reason they're having trouble recruiting. A lot of the people who do want to sign up have to be turned away for those reasons. I read a while back that they have a special program that tries to help these flunkies get to a point where they can pass the tests. The physical fitness part isn't a bad idea, but IQ is a hard limit on what people can do academically, so that part is pointless. Especially since the academic requirements are ridiculously low to begin with.
For the US at least, the academic requirements are interesting. Shit's done on a percentile scale. So they're always turning away 50% of applicants. Then of those it's further whittled down by medical, background checks, etc. It's actually really funny in a sad way.
It depends on which gamers we're talking about. Most of the people writing articles about gamers are either man hating boomer simps or permanently single feminists who have this extremely old fashioned stereotype of gamers all being fat basement dwelling nerd mouth breathers.
Now don't get me wrong, that stereotype is definitely true to a degree. However it is outdated and as ever in a lot of cases even people here have commented how anti-woke various sections of the gaming community are. They might not always be the most physically fit individuals but not to stroke my own ego too much because it's about the community in general they definitely fall under the high functioning autist spectrum we all love to joke about.
It stands to reason then that with western militaries having a total brain drain in expertise as all the boomers move towards retirement they're going to make efforts to recruit people like that and stroke their egos claiming they can be sexy drone pilots and show off to women what they do with their l33t gamer skills. I think they overestimate the zoomer capabilities though as it turns out the really younger generations are growing up tech illiterate due to their overuse of user friendly phones and tablets.
As other people have pointed out, it's not just the fact that every military now is woke as fuck. There's no way I'd go fucking killing people for a bunch of communist shits and elitist weirdos who are inevitably going to stab me in the back once my usefulness has run out anyway.

No. Go look into McNamara's Folly and see what happens when you ship out retards.
You accidentally improve the overall IQ of the nation by three points?

It's a time-honored American tradition to shoot veterans for wanting their back pay.
Obama didn't spend eight years tearing down standards and discipline in the military for nothing.
