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.

Next line:

While leading the 39th Army Group of the National Revolutionary Army, he planned to defect to the Japanese, but before he could do so he was kidnapped and buried alive by his sworn brother and subordinate Gao Shuxun, who later gained command of Shi's unit.

Fingers crossed I'll never be involved with any live burials

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Being buried alive, piranhas, quicksand, "stop drop and roll", the Bermuda Triangle - all things I feared growing up and thought would be more relevant.

The BT is funny up until you learn the truth behind it.

No, it's just a big zone with a lot of maritime and aerial traffic, so of course there is going to be more inciein that place.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It's actually more of a rhombus.

Yes, and it's not just "I don't want to be buried alive", I also don't want to be standing there watching it either. No thanks

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

"hey, how do you punish infanticide where you're from? Here we bury the woman in between two layers of thorns, then have the executioner jump on the ground on top."

I love that his bro was down for any treason but the IJA.

Before the end of WWII, Japan was not well regarded in Asia, they were warlords and colonists pillaging the mainland whenever they could for centuries.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

It's a bit more specific than that. These were all Chinese warlords that ended up (mostly) banding together against the Japanese invasion of China in 1937 that was, imo, the actual start of WW2.

The atrocities commited during the invasion can not be understated. Bro was just playing the game beforehand, that was a step too far for anyone with a soul.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I learned it from watching you!

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

Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, can't, uh, can't get fooled again.

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

Fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you
Fool me three times, fuck the peace sign
Load the chopper, let it rain on you

Shake it three times
You're playing with yourself

[–] [email protected] 59 points 1 year ago (3 children)

You’d think after the third time his reputation would carry. Guess not though, lol

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago

You think anyone checks references?

They looked just close enough to go "He's got the experience" and moved on.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah they should have just checked his LinkedIn page

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s right here on the guy’s Wikipedia page, you’d think they’d at least Google him

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are.... Are you joking?

Google wasn't around back then.

They would have had to use something like infoseek or aliweb

SMH my head, people just don't know their history

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It's not like the web was around back then either ya doofus, what year do you think we're talking about here?

Back in those times the would have been at best using something like Veronica, or just trawling Usenet asking if people know him

Reminds me of this gigachad

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

An athenian general who then defected to Sparta and then defected to Persia(and then kinda went back to Athens). All while fucking everyones wives.

Honestly it is shocking there hasnt been a movie about him.

I always chose the romance options in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Because as they say, Greeks invented the orgy, the Romans then brought in women.

What did they expect from a guy called "see you soon".

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

TBF, that was a fighting between warlords period. The people he betrayed were no more loyal than him.

Feng Yuxiang betrayed Wu Peifu, following Zhang Xueliang's advice. Zhang later surrendered to Chiang Kai-Shek himself. So it was basically everyone trying to grab any opportunity.

If he'll cheat with you, he'll cheat on you.

I don't know why but this has Lu Bu energy to it.

Can't wait for the year 3000 when we get a Dynasty Warriors about this

A store clerk: appears to consult me on what to buy

Me: Man, can't you see? I'm just browsing.

Also me: puts X down to take Y, but then puts Y and takes X, repeatedly

Chiang Kai-shek the only one with a purple link.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

And if you ever get close to him? ...... he'll betray you, too.

Shares a room with Talleyrand in the afterlife.
