A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

I mean, trump’s cost his party 3 electoral cycles in a row so…
I think we get to wait and see what happens people seem to still like him... 🙁
I live in West Virginia, I can attest that they are fucking rabid about Trump 2024.
How did West Virginia go from battle of blair mountain to boot licking fuckwads?
Leaded gas and an aging population.
Edit: That's a pretty flippant response to a complicated answer.
You could write a book about how West Virginia got into this mess. We're a third world country right here in the United States. Most of our industry is owned by foreign (out of state) interests. We generate wealth and it gets shipped out with no benefit to the people who live here. Our natural resources alone should make us wealthy, but they are stolen from us and we are left sick and impoverished.
Then come the Republicans, with their rhetoric of "gubbmint interference" and these brain-damaged idiots lap it up. We elect a Democrat governor who then switches parties to support Trump. How do we react? We fucking reelect him.
The "revenge tour" according to the bumper stickers all over my neighbors car.
If signs could vote Trump would have won last time. Biden isn't my entire identity. He's just a competent person that I voted for.
From WV. Not me. Repub family but I turned traitor forever. Fuck the GOP.
