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.

Funny thing about how clean Russia is. Moscow has a spotless city center, and anywhere important is super clean. But as soon as you step outside the usual areas, it's suddenly back to failed-state chique, with random crap just dumped outside of direct view and slowly spilling over.
Ever visited underserved areas of the USA? We're talking furniture dumped in barely wooded areas.
You can call them rurals
They can't hear you here, they're all on Facebook
Lol'd. I've seen it in sparsely wooded areas outside that serves as green space, in midsized cities as well, but yes, mostly rural/small towns.
Their impotent rage amuses me.
Less amusing since they started killing and raping civilians in Ukraine, but I agree. Something is just fascinatingly wrong with the mindset of this country
I don't think a country can even have a mindset. Also, I'd guess that mindset might not be shared equally amongst all Russians
County mindset is called culture
And assuming everyone thinks like that is called nationalism and jingoism, but we're getting a little credible here
But muh others and team sports
I'd say it can't possibly be true, but orcs
Keep going, Ivan. You're this close to getting it.
So close. I've been wondering about ways we can push them over the line of realization. 500,000 dead hasn't done it. A few days ago they lost 65 artillery pieces in a single day. Sure there's lots of soviet production in mothballs but this shit has been going on for two years. How much longer can they go on before the average person realizes - oh shit - we're gonna lose this badly - ?
The 500k figure is casualties, not deaths. That includes wounded.
500k is shit for Russia. Lmao Russia got into the big leagues by throwing tens of millions into a meat grinder and still having fucking more ready to go. They're like ants that have been half drowned in vodka. Every one you popov gets replaced by 4 more.
IKEA makes loans for purchasing their uncomfortable furniture? Their sofas should be reviewed for human rights violations. They're not aspirational.
Remember, these are the people who consider Adidas tracksuits the epitome of fashion and a status symbol.
IKEA furniture are not bad at all. 40 years ago or was a standing joke, but the quality has quintupled since then.
You can of course buy the cheapest of cheap in IKEA and it will be less comfortable than the more expensive ones, but couches from IKEA are good.
Hell, most other furniture brands delivers their furniture flat packed as well. It's just easier to build IKEA since they have gotten the instructions down to a t.
When I saw the story about furniture doctor here the other day it just seemed so dumb. Buy flat packed furniture sand assemble it on your living room. Or get the furniture doctor to assemble it, then you don't have to cut it open with power tools....
In short - IKEA and Wasa ftw!!
Yeh, they have managed to keep the range and attraction that you have both a new student trying to buy the cheapest possible set of furniture for their student flat and some rich retirees fitting out their holiday home buying in the same place.
I got a POÄNG chair, love it. But there are cussions for it that are more expensive than the entire chair I bought!
It's amazing, and probably great for the upsell as there is always something slightly nicer.
Sorry for making fun about your typo, but the thought of a cussion - a cushion that cusses like a sailor every time you sit on it - is too funny.
🤣
Poland is the China of Europe. Everything you can do, they can do cheaper.
Also, Poland is much less corrupt and the privatization in the 90s worked a bit better than in Russia, at least it didn't create a powerful class of oligarchs due to less mineral resources. Most of their major companies are relatively young though.
Its called getting money from big daddy EU
Edit: apperently some people missunderstood my comment. Im in no way saying that all their achievements are just eu. All Im saying that especially public infrastructure in poland is strongly substituted by eu. In a lot of cities you can't get on a tram without seeing the big eu logo. And thats not a bad thing. Thats exactly what the eu is for. To help each other out.
Baw, Poland looking pretty good right now. Tech sector is going hard, about to pass UK SOL and GDP.
Now remove from those numbers the contributions of immigrants workers
Sorry, Marat, you're not Russian, you're a Tatar. And no one likes Tatars, especially in Russia.
Well, the explanation is a word which, curiously, is similar to the French word for "whore".
