"simps for president with 25% approval" clearly not, they were just doing the bare minimum to not get fired, as the other labels show

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.

MODERATORS
Yeah, they're literally just normal dudes doing their mandatory service that everyone hates. I think one of the benefits of mandatory service is that the police state isn't exclusively made up of the most violent and conservative people in the country.
Apparently Switzerland has higher gun ownership rates than America, but in order to own one you have to have completed the mandatory military service. It literally decreases mass shootings yet giving you the freedom to own guns.
Yes and no, the ownership rate is high because some soldiers keep their arms after service. But you don't need to have served to own a gun, you simply need a permit and clean record. Also a lot of people do target shooting as a sport (in a controlled environment, not like in someones backyard).
Switzerland also very, very heavily regulates the civilian possession of ammunition.
You don't have to have completed militry service, but it's the cheapest, easiest and quickest way to get one.
I think a lot of Americans don't understand that many other democracies in the world don't have a lot of military that would shoot their own people for nothing. There's even a common saying: "where do you think we live? the US?".
Neither of them got distracted by pr0n
Truly based, ROK National Assembly
mps wouldn't have managed to do shit without the protesters
The US barely gives out live rounds to soldiers, you think governments with limited budgets just hand it out whenever?
