A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo 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. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

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 ‘western’ 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. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat 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.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

There is only one war the US military should be involved in. They swore an oath to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

**Gestures broadly toward D.C.

I often wonder if the General Staff isn't cooking something behind the scenes. You know they've gamed scenarios to defy Trump launching nukes.

Maybe that's just hopium. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I'm having a hard time seeing the leaders going in for a strike against NATO. Also, I can't believe I just typed that sentence.

Anyway, as I told my little kids last Christmas, the 80s and 90s were pretty fucking cool, sorry.

I can believe they have resistance plans for the really batshit scenarios.

But passively denying nukes or whatever is a heck of a lot better than actively starting shit in DC. That would be a dark road to go down.

What is there even left to say? Fuck.

It would be hilarious if Mr. War Hegseth decides to "whip out the mighty dick of America" only to have possibly the lowest troop morale in history right on day 1

The shortest, limpest dick of any defense secretary. I thought he was going femme with all the makeup.

Here's what scares me. If that happens, America could Island hop.

Greenland > Iceland > Faroe islands > Shetland > Orkney > Scotland.
