NonCredibleDefense
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.

Can somebody explain why this was removed? It didn't break any rules, "Russian cope" isn't prohibited by the rules. Just trying to understand the logic. How does deleting controversial opinions (that aren't hate speech or call for violence) help anyone?
Side note, I just realized that Rule 5. says "no politics". How is this even possible? 80% of content here is politics in some shape or form, just like this post.
Rule 2 Russian propaganda is factually incorrect. All factually incorrect information that isn't obviously satire should have matching citations explaining why it's incorrect.
Rule 4 Russian propaganda is hatespeech.
Rule 5 No politics.
I don't pretend to be unbiased or neutral. If what you want is a rule that says don't suck Russian cock by propagating the talking points of war criminals, I'll be glad to add it.
If you came to a defense shitposting community looking for help you may have come to the wrong place.
Russia is bad and tells only lies, but this is a pretty egregious twisting of Rule 4
Trying to sell the lie that NATO is at war with Russia is literally Russian MOD talking points.
Yes, agreed. That doesn't make it hate speech. You undermine the concept of hate speech when you abuse it like this.
Doesn't need to be hate speech for it to be removed.
Russian shills just aren't welcome here. They can fuck off to their motherland until their imperial sock puppet of a dictator stops invading sovereign nations.
Then we should add a new rule that better encompasses the intent such as "No misinformation".
That's not enough, you need to say the line for us
Expecting people not to spread the Russian MoD lies is too much to ask apparently.
edit: toned it down
It's not? I can see it on my phone just fine
