Habitual Linecrosser tweeted about this as well
I think they already tried that route a while ago. Dustin on Smarter Every Day did several videos about the Navy and I think Coast Guard. Idk who mr Linecrosser is but I don’t think the military would ever approve normal YouTube content that is aimed at children. Like there’s not going to be a “Last one to survive Mr. Beasts mine field wins 1 million dollars!!!” video sponsored by the Army.
Habitual Linecrosser is a former missile defense operator turned YouTuber. No one’s talking about aiming content at children with Mr Beast type shit, not sure where you got that from. We need to increase recruitment and more people in the 17-25 age range are watching Youtube over regular TV.
Spend that $11M on providing drinkable water to people on-base instead maybe?
Naaaaaah. Then some random colonel wouldn’t get to sniff the Rock’s jock.
And you think reallocating the recruitment budget fixes a negligence problem?
Meanwhile in Canada, you can grow a beard now while getting raped in a black-mould-filled bucket for 4 years.
Widespread sexual abuse and dangerously moldy ships are two notable scandals the Canadian forces have had recently, as part of a larger growing infamy, and terms of service last a lot longer than in America. Their response to beef up recruitment is… relaxed facial hair restrictions.
Hard to imagine a worse font choice than that bottom one.
A couple of the articles about this mentioned that UFL’s viewing figures were believed to be harmed by this deal as well.
So not only did fewer people want to join the army after seeing UFL and the rock promote it, but fewer people wanted to watch UFL after seeing it was associated with the army. Talk about a toxic brand.
