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.

Chris Christe can block the bridge better than snore lax

I thought we were trying to avoid the use of WMDs

I think it's about this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Lee_lane_closure_scandal And I learnt today that Chris Christie had yet another scandal!

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 8 points 1 year ago

That was actually the big scandal.

why would this meeting ever take place?

Chris Christie is running for president. His polling is abysmal, but who knows what happens if Trump's support collapses.

Zelensky doesn't want to appear partisan and risk alienating the republican party in the middle of a war, given Ukraine relies on continued US support, so he'll happily shake the hand of anyone and everyone if that helps.

[–] Thisisforfun@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't it illegal for him to be "negotiating" with foreign leaders?

He's a private citizen at this point, he can go meet politicians in other countries if he wants.

[–] yata@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The US definitely isn't sending their best.

Or even our non-shit.

FFS, three kids in a trenchcoat would be better than Christie.

When you’ll take money from everyone all news is good news.
