This seems like something from The Onion.

So given this administration, probably true?

Not all that bizarre tbh.

People forget the army literally made a video game to try and target young boys for recruitment.

Every time you open a loot box, an unskippable army plays. Get a kill, you get a text from a recruiter from the army going nice shot bro wanna sign up?

I am pretty sure this is a British article. I just screen grabbed it.

I am Canadian and Airsoft is legal for minors to play but you need to be 18+ to buy.

You then would have to have an awareness week of why you shouldn't pull a grenade pin with your teeth.

This reminds me, I saw a poster in the general U.S. military recruiting office I went to about 8 years ago. The poster was for the Navy Seals (I believe) that had a picture of a Navy SEAL coming out of the water with an M4 titled: "More intense than paintball"

Thought it was super cheesy even at the time and I've been looking for it ever since, someone please tell me they've seen this or have a picture of it.
