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.

Predictably the mainstream media, in concert with the CIA, is suppressing this story.

I live in one of the holes and can confirm it is now a hole.

I hear Ohio has drastically improved

We could have a lovely last moment with the NCD band, if any of us knew how to play....

Yeah, you can see in the image where one of those was a hit below the waterline there in the Salton Sink:

The lowest point of the sink is 269 ft (82 m) below sea level

I'm afraid that this is probably it for the United States.

It was a brave experiment in democracy and republicanism that was influential on much of the world, though; its cultural and technological contributions will be missed.

On the silver lining side, it looks like the long-sought-after more-direct Northwest Passage between Europe and East Asia will be practical.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northwest_Passage

For centuries, European explorers, beginning with Christopher Columbus in 1492, sought a navigable passage as a possible trade route to Asia, but were blocked by North, Central, and South America, by ice, or by rough waters (e.g. Tierra del Fuego).

No doubt this will have significant effects on the transit-related economy in Panama.

Just one more time, I would take the Northwest Passage ...

I can't believe they missed NY, LA, and DC. Thanks for WV and Ohio, though. I understand that they didn't want to harm their fellow extremists in Florida and Texas.

Sir, i don't think that's Houthi's Ballistic Missiles, it's the alien Whotitis Space-To-Ground laser beam.

You sunk my cattle!

Doesn't look too bad. Looks like Texas being taken out entirely so I'd say it's a win in the long run.

Wait the Houthis are hitting things?
