Lana Del Rey Rejects Army Recruitment

Text on the meme

Lol years ago I was going to direct a LDR music video. The theme was WWII to present-day military Americana. Like some Marilyn Monroe USO shit. The Army was going to finance it. Tanks, helicopters, the works. But Army wanted to use the video for recruiting and LDR said fuck that. "Being brave means knowing that when you fail, you don’t fail forever." -Lana Del Rey #SoldierSaturday

What it means

A screenshot of a tweet tells how Lana Del Rey planned a military-themed music video funded by the Army, but rejected it when they wanted to use it for recruitment. The quoted inspirational military message contrasts humorously with her blunt refusal, making the meme a reaction to rejecting propaganda or corporate conditions.
