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.

Funny you think the CIA operates the same as the KGB

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Imagine who much further along the world would be if we stooped to their levels. Dictators would be extinct. Cartels wouldn’t exist. I would be erect 24/7.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 year ago

I live in Latin America.

Please. No more pain.

Dictators would be extinct. Cartels wouldn’t exist.

Have you forgotten what the Funny Alphabet Agency does?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why would we need to build cartels and install dictators if we could just simply drone strike the opposition?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If the CIA operated like the KGB, we'd have an autocrat in the White House, and the CIA would still be selling drugs on US streets to destabilize internal demographics.

This is the organization that had data that torture wasn't effective, and then was told by the fucking president to stop torturing people, and it came out several years later in front of Congress that they just kept on torturing people regardless.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And they still do, don't worry. We just can't call it torture now, or do it within the US. There's a long institutional memory that remembers when the CIA could literally launch an invasion of a foreign country and drag the executive branch into the conflict with it.

We just can’t call it torture now, or do it within the US.

The "Enhanced interrogation" was what they were told to stop. They kept "enhanced interrogating" people.

Some things you do because you have to,
other things you do because you enjoy it

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

Bro I'm very much a pro America guy, but what? We built half those dictators, seemingly as a joke. We literally trolled in a decades long, international level.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I must upvote this because to believe that someone on this site unironically thinks the CIA doesn't support dictators and cartels would probably give me an aneurysm

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I unironically think the CIA are the good guys, even if they have to do unsavory things to do good.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I unironically believe this too. In 2016 I was like “yeah! The deep state is bad! Fuck em! Washington doesn’t represent me!” and then, well, the last 8 years happened

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Time heals many wounds.

We are the Deep State.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me too. I'm stayin positive and growing wealth, the only way to beat their game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why beat them when you can join them?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Eh, I don't want to join Dark Brandon and get my hair sniffed.

If you work hard enough to destabilize the world for the New World Order and Biden dies from old age then you’ll get to be the sniffer.

It’s a sniff or be sniffed world.
