looking back, I didn't appreciate the "Thug Shaker Central" incident for how wacky it truly was

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. 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.

Wait I'm OOTL, what happened?
Military couldn’t figure out how top secret info kept getting leaked. This was info regarding troop positions, equipment specs, etc… They were thinking that it was some top-level member of the military who was leaking all of these, because nobody else had enough access to be able to see all the different things that were being leaked.
Turns out, it was some dude in IT who had admin rights. He was playing games while on voice chat on Discord, and was getting roasted. He basically told them “y’all don’t even know how important I am. I have Top Secret clearance and could smoke any of y’all if I wanted to.” Naturally, they responded with “lol prove it loser.”
So he did. He started posting Top Secret documents in the discord. And someone else on that Discord started sharing them elsewhere, until it eventually made its way all the way to foreign intelligence organizations.
Literally stupid Snowden
At least Snowden could argue that he was releasing the coxs for ideological/moral reasons. That the public had a right to know about the spying.
This was just a loser trying to gain online clout.
