" Russia’s notorious
Wagner mercenary group has turned to a pornography website to help
recruit potential fighters for the war in Ukraine.
A
Pornhub advert for the private military company, which first came to light in a popular Russian Telegram channel covering the porn industry, shows a woman rolling a lollipop around in her mouth.
“We’re the most bad-ass private army in the world. We’re hiring in all regions of Russia,” a woman’s voice can be heard saying. “Don’t j--k off, go to work for PMC Wagner.”
The advert was reportedly visible to viewers accessing the site from several Russian regions, but not in Moscow, in line with the strategy guiding Russia’s partial military mobilisation last year, which reportedly targeted those in rural parts of the country rather than in the major cities."
Some "out-of-the-box" thinking by Prighozin, but I have to imagine that these "potential recruits" are probably more motivated to continue spending their time with "Jessica, the Swedish Nurse " * than being knee-deep in freezing mud, before being ordered to advance into a storm of bullets from well-prepared defensive positions in Bakhmut.
* If there is such a site, then my use of this name is purely coincidental
