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.

Hey Russia, what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?

That's the chain's Anglo/Irish name. In Russia they're known as Tchotchke's.

Yeah I'm not sure if it's an outright threat or "Yankees go home"

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

I've been pondering it for hours... 98% it's a threat about kidnapping Americans, put the word "ransom" in place of "bonus". A non native English speaker could easily confuse the two words. It's like when you are in a hurry and the precise word in another language escapes you for a moment, but you toss in a placeholder, knowing that the person you're talking with will fill in the right word from conversational context. This is a shitty vetsion of "Look at me. I am the Captain now."

Credibility alert: based on this article, the situation in Africa looks quite horrible from a US/NATO perspective. I know China and Russia are trying to expand there, but do we think they are just filling the vacuum, or were they the one to initiate some military coups?

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 months ago

There are a few people in the Army who are world-class champions at "you leave you move you vanish". They went to a lot of trouble to import their Xboxes to Niger. Do not enter random shitty quarters and touch xboxes.

Looking forward to continuation of the Battle of Khasham series in the MIC Universe 🍿
