A new CIA recruitment video has been widely ridiculed online after the recruit described herself as an 'intersectional cisgender millennial'.
The unnamed CIA officer, 36, tells viewers she is 'unapologetically me', adding that she to suffer from 'imposter syndrome' but now refuses to 'internalize misguided patriarchal ideas of what a woman can or should be.'
But the clip has sparked a fierce reaction online with users labelling it 'woke'. Another said: 'The world is laughing at us.'
Donald Trump Jr. tweeted: 'China and Russia will love this.'
Former CIA officer Bryan Dean Wright, tweeted: 'The CIA used to be about mission to country. (I speak from experience).
'Now it's now about demanding — and getting — accommodation to fix an emotional wound or advance a personal agenda. America is less safe with this new CIA, and dangerously more political.'
Another Twitter user compared it to a Saturday Night Live skit.
Glenn Greenwald, part of a team that won a Pulitzer for reports about government surveillance programs based on leaks by Edward Snowden, tweeted: 'Lots of people who pay no attention to the CIA and the security state seem to think this CIA video is the first time they've promoted, endorsed and embraced woke ideology.
'They've been doing it for years. I wrote about back in 2015.'
The clip was shared to Twitter on April 28 in a post which read: 'I am unapologetically me. I want you to be unapologetically you, whoever you are.
'Whether you work at #CIA, or anywhere else in the world. Command your space. Mija, you are worth it.'

I wish Tom Clancy was here to see this.
‘intersectional cisgender millennial’ diagnosed with ‘generalized anxiety disorder’
How does somebody like that get a security clearance?
C'mon man!
Just reading this makes me almost gag. I’m pretty sure I don’t want to see the video.
Nuckin’ Futs, taxpaying Americans footing the bill for for this kind of crap.
I tried to watch Amazon’s movie “Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse.” What a pile of dog excrement. Gave up after half and hour. Nothing but by-the-numbers revenge porn and a plot line to inflame the public about Russia. There’s a slight “anti-CIA” subplot in it to try to make you believe that a CIA writer didn’t write the screenplay.
The movie had absolutely nothing to do with the original book except the name of the impossibly competent and lucky “hero”.
Intelligence agencies control the major media. And they have been ordered to forward the “Russia is our enemy” meme.
After Clinton,ineffectual Bush, Obama, Trump who could never get hold of Federal agencies or purge them, now Biden, this is what the FBI,CIA, NSA and homeland security has become. Who in their right mind believes they operate in the best interests of the American nation or the American people. Only a fool would trust them.
Looks like the CIA wants to set up recruitment centers in psychiatric wards.
It really does sound like a well written parody.
Dialog created as the writers were making each other bust out laughing.
Beer and pretzels all around the room.
One writer was laughing so hard, he needed to look for his asthma inhaler. He found it.
Ping
I see that Amazon strived to fill their "POC quota" by having blacks fill the two lead character positions. Nowhere in Clancy's books is there a hint of John Clark being black.
Get a Section 8 Discharge and let a MAN do the job!
By the time the OSS went away and the CIA was being established, the groundwork was laid for elitists who were willing to play fast and loose with the rule of law, operating with the attitude that they were too important to be bound by such quaint anachronisms. When they were given carte blanche to manipulate election outcomes or engineer coups in other countries, it was only a matter of time before they gave it a shot at home.
There are only two sexual identities: normal and abnormal.
If he were alive, it would kill him.
If this weirdo is working for a government agency that handles top secret matters, we ALL should have “generalized anxiety disorder” at her access to them. And this is the best the CIA could do for a recruitment video? They want to attract more weirdos like her? G-d help us!
