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.

Haha they don’t even care about bombing kids and dumping hog tied families into pits, you think they give a fuck about some mercs? Ha! Ha Ha!

I always thought the surprise on the henchmen's faces as their evil boss sacrifices them was a bit over dramatic. But now I'm seeing someone who really doesn't get it. If your boss has you committing war crimes then the chance that they care about what happens to you is really fucking low.

Stalin was a big fan of damnatio memoriae.

wagner was deemed unnecessary, ru govt doesn't need the most valuable service they provided: plausible deniability. they took away their heavy equipment, they took away their manpower, and they are taking away any memories of them. should have seen this coming since mutiny

unless you want to believe some rando vatnik on twitter instead, where they are supposed to change crosses to cope pyramids instead, imo it's even worse

Wagner? Isn't he a composer? I dont think there's ever been any defence related Wagner ever.

Or else.

In Germany we know Wagner as a pizza brand

The Dr. Oetker company

Their products are flatter.

Damn, baiting the response aren’t they

Looks like put in found his way out of the pickle. What do you do when you're caught between admitting that Ukraine shot down a Russian plane in Russian airspace and telling the Wagner group you assassinated their leader? You start erasing the Wagner group.

It's a shitty thing to screw up a memorial to the war dead. Even though Wagner are screwed up, and the war is for imperialism. We honor the soldiers who died in Vietnam after all.

Russia is a big fan of the whole, "strike your very existence from the records" level of distancing themselves from inconvenient people.
