Well guys, you're not going to believe it, or maybe you will, but the CIA has released yet another woke recruitment video.
You literally can't make it up.
But in watching this video, I know that China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, and our enemies are laughing their asses off at us.
They must love this.
You know, the gentleman talks about, I was worried I wouldn't be able to talk about my personal life at work.
Why is that an issue?
Why is that important? Most people don't talk about their personal life at work.
The fact that you're talking about this at the CIA is a problem.
You have a man that was recruited to play board games with CIA agents.
I mean, they're playing tabletop games.
It's like it's a kindergarten.
The CIA recruitment video makes it seem like the CIA is like a daycare center for woke adults and they're supposed to be the people on the front lines of our national defense keeping us safe from our enemies.
Do you think like the Russian FSB has their agents?
Board games? I don't think so.
I don't think so.
I literally can't explain how ridiculous this is.
You have to watch it for yourself.
As an agency librarian, I work to ensure that our collection and services are matched up with what CIA needs.
Not only am I involved in the acquisitions of journals, books, and countless electronic resources, I'm also encouraged to curate special collections that challenge expectation.
Recently, I brought in our intelligence gaming collection to give officers unique opportunities to practice skills they need in their various roles.
Instead of sitting for hours in front of a computer-based training, they can play a carefully selected game to train a specific set of skills while simultaneously building on the myriad soft skills essential to intelligence work.
My favorite thing about CIA is that they encourage the out-of-the-box ideas that drive real progress.
Growing up gay in a small southern town, I was lucky to have a wonderful and accepting family.
I always struggled with the idea that I might not be able to discuss my personal life at work.
Imagine my surprise when I was taking my oath at CIA and I noticed a rainbow on then-director Brennan's lanyard, which I later learned was designed by Engel, one of the many employee resource groups here at the agency.
I remember being stunned.
Since then, however, I've learned that far beyond the resource groups, inclusion is a core value here.
Officers from the top down work hard to ensure that every single person, whatever their gender, gender identity, race,
disability, or sexual orientation can bring their entire self to work every day.
Again, we go through all the identity politics checklists and all those things.
Again, we're not hiring because of identity.
It just happens to be, right?
Sure, then we gotta list all the things that we're hiring because of identity for.
Why? Guess what, guys?
In 2021, I can assure you, no one gives a crap if you're gay.
No one cares. Just do your damn job.
Keep America safe. Check this video out.
It's absolutely mind-boggling how insane this is.
Our enemies are laughing our asses off.
No one cares.
Imagine what every single one of our enemies is thinking when they see this video.
