British Army Wants ‘Snowflakes’ and 'Phone Zombies' to Defend Country

Good luck inculcating the values you want in your soldiers...

I always think of the tide pod challenge wherever I hear about "snowflakes"

Another marketing ploy destined for the dustbin of marketing ploys. Almost as bad as "an Army of one". You have to recruit people with a lot of solid life skills that are willing to serve and want to serve their country out of a sense of duty and patriotism. The compassion of a snowflake is worthless as is the focus of a phone zombie and the confidence of a selfie addict (whatever that means).
