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.

I was trying to learn more about Merz. Seems like he flip-flops between ideals quite a bit. Apparently staunchly anti Russian and hates AfD, but he may change his mind if the wind blows in a different direction.

He doesn't so much hate AfD as he hates that their existence makes it harder to focus on cutting regulation and giving tax cuts to the rich because they take some of the bigoted traditional voter base away from his party.

Imagine a conservative lobbyist from the early 90s stepping into a time machine and traveling to present day. That's Merz. His foreign policies are not terrible but he's trying to undo 30 years of progress at home.

[–] Successful_Try543@feddit.org 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

He didn't even need to take a time machine, he's just coming from a very backward region.

The first half of this video was his first political Advertisement, you don't even need to understand what he says to get the point.

Honestly rather informative

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 4 points 10 hours ago

Nah. Too busy collaborating with Red Skull.

What is this high brow content?

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 2 points 8 hours ago

Please, this is the artistic effluence that this form derives its strength from. Note the bold lines and sissonne idiomatic entry of the first panel, into the grande allegre (metaphorically, of course!) of the following two panels. A masterpiece, contrasting the fragile effervesce of military hardware in the last panel with the robust strength of the egos of the politicians in the first.
