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.

So, it's pretty clear Russia plans to invade other neighbors, right?

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 59 points 2 months ago

It's a pretty safe bet.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 months ago

Oh yeah, it's the county clerk's office and they're the Blues Brothers.

2009

Thank you for mentioning this. I didn't take notice at the time (a bit too young still) and never properly read up on their invasion of Georgia.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Given how this one's going, that doesn't seem like a great plan.

Yes, the terror of nuclear annihilation will be significantly tempered by the hilarity if he tries taking on Europe.

Okay, that sounds sarcastic, but I think I actually mean it. He will get rekt and it will be satisfying. Then I'll turn to figuring out nuclear winter in fucking Canada.

[–] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, would you look at that. I need to make an appropriately degenerate meme to post.

Seems like reasonable demand

Of course, for fairness sake that would also mean no Russian troops in any russian countries bordering the West

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 16 points 2 months ago

He is trying. Just needs a bigger grinder to feed them all into.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

And that Ukraine would be allowed to determine the size of the Russian army of course

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 107 points 2 months ago (2 children)

So Russia wants vassal states of everyone on their border. Just fucking try it with Finland. Go on, it will be funny.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 27 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'd be more worried about the Poles.

[–] Kirp123@lemmy.world 57 points 2 months ago (21 children)

All the Eastern Europeans know that Russia is not to be trusted. There is a reason all of them pushed so hard to join NATO.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 30 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Oh, definitely. The Polish have a score to settle though.

[–] Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 months ago

Every neighbour of theirs has a score to settle. Russia has never been a good neighbour to any of us.

Of course, his demands are impossible. That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“

I really wish people would stop, acting shocked and surprised when Putin and Trump do shit like this. We have known, for decades, that both of them are insane monsters. Do something!

Luckily this only works for two year iods and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.

Which is who is in charge of a lot of places, but you'd think normal people would never listen for a second.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

Trump might be insane but Putin is far from it. He’s been locked in a battle for the survival of his regime (and by extension his life) for decades. He’s extremely savvy at playing the political game in Russia.

Trump basically shoots from the hip all the time and thinks only his relationships with people and his deal-making matter. He’s a sitting duck for a manipulator like Putin.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 months ago

Eh, the rest of the Western world is slowly getting there.

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 64 points 2 months ago

Russia is not a serious country. The demands are essentially a shitpost. It's one of the most delusional things I've seen in a while.

[–] nuke@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Ooh ooh ah ah!

*flailing arms wildly*

🐵💨💩

[–] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

Can someone link me their demands? I'm failing to find an article that properly explains them

[–] missandry351@lemmings.world 4 points 2 months ago

Stupid you are, rule should you not
