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.

Wow thats fucking pathetic. I regularly work on vessels from ww2 that are used on the regular are in better shape than that.

Any of them spend a few months in open ocean between repaints?

[–] Mpatch@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Tug boats and Bulk cargo vessels and oil tankers yes.

If the people in charge have any shred of competence, and 13 replacements, they don't.

Trump spent decades blathering on about how he would be a great president, so much better than anyone else in that office. He finally gets in and completely fucks up EVERYTHING! Not a single fucking thing isn't completely fucked to hell and back. This country may not surive him.

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 day ago

This country may not surive him.

🤞

He already had 50 years of track record ruining his businesses and people vote for him. The he ruined the country already and people voted for him a second time. By a bigger margin.

If he runs a third time he will get 60% of the vote.

I hope he gets even less than that

[–] Tja@programming.dev 0 points 17 hours ago

If we're hoping, I hope he won't be above ground by then. Go team hamburgers and diet coke!

At least it doesn't use magnets, which as we all know, don't work when they get wet.

To be fair... I mean it's just the paint.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

On a forty year old ship.

The problems aren't the paint, it's losing a war and all your bases to Iran fighting an unnecessary and pointless war while you have a forty year old ship breaking deployment records because you're so goddamn incompetent you and your ass kissers couldn't figure out a sensible duty rotation.

[–] sidebro@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I wasn't reviewing that, the picture just shows the paint.

[–] Malica@lemmy.zip 3 points 12 hours ago

According to the sailors it's much worse inside. They tried to off themselves to get away.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 18 hours ago

This might startle you but everything exists in context.

[–] Arancello@aussie.zone 10 points 1 day ago

Just like he rebuilt Lake Trump. (formerly known as the Washington Reflecting Pool).
