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.

Damnit.... now i remember something i miss from reddit. Srgrafo comics were always a delight.
And for the meme crafters out there he has his own font (yucky r*ddit link)
If i am not mistaken he also had a lot of his memes stripped of text to make templates for others to use. All around cool dude, i just wish he'd finish making game artwork and start making more memes.

We almost made it to 2%. Why is it so hard for the liberal government to tax the rich more to get there and properly support our soldiers and Ukraine.
I just spent two and a half weeks in Alberta and I don’t know how many times people just randomly brought up Canada wasting money in Ukraine, and when asked about it they had nothing to say past ‘we should spend money on people that need it!’.
Fuck I hate that province.
fuck I hate that province
Same....

I live in AB and the only person I've heard w/ that take was a Russian expat
It was a sentiment brought up randomly by about 5 of my younger brothers friends, who all grew up in the Sylvan Lake area.
Your younger brother has some dumb friends.
You should intervene and make sure he's not listening to Ben Shapiro.

I guess the Ukraine population is going to be turned against conservatism even if they may agree to it. Family is more important to them than the culture war nonsense.

Now remember kids, Canada is responsible for half the Geneva convention. Do not trust Canada.
I think you're talking about the Geneva Checklist there bud.
Canada and Poland best collaboration. Wish there was an American soldier that could make funny skids about their checklist

I know two things about Canadians. They're the nicest people I've ever met. Don't go to war against them.
Don't be our outlet for repressed violence.
Canada and Australia are just our friends, but England is like our parent. Well, I guess they're also Australia's parent, too which makes us siblings.
Hey, Australia: wanna wrestle?
Are Germany and Italy and Japan former intervention therapy clients then?
And France is an aunt?
Nationalism's weird.
Russia is that uncle that used to be cool, started a cult, went kinda normal after his cult fell apart, but is now neck deep in a plot to destroy you and trying to get the cult going again.

It USED to be Britain, until they spit in our face by building a pair of diesel carriers, like cowards.
The nerve! Did we send a strongly worded letter with pictures of teabags held hostage above a body of water until they get their shit together?
Weren't these subs supposed to be made for the French but we fucked them over and sent the bid to Australia? Still kinda bummed about that, especially if the French deploy in Ukraine. They're great allies.
A little mixed up, there. The French were meant to have the contract to build nuclear powered subs for Australia, but the UK fucked the French by taking the contract, with some US help.
The creation of the partnership spelled the end of a French–Australian submarine deal. On 17 September 2021, France recalled its ambassadors from Australia and the US; French foreign minister Jean-Yves Le Drian called the partnership a "stab in the back"[10] following Australia's cancellation of the deal worth €56 billion (A$90 billion) without notice,[11][12][13] ending recent efforts to develop a deeper strategic partnership between France and Australia.

World's largest arms dealer strongly encourages customers to spend more money on arms, particularly the kind only the US is capable of producing.
They could but that would mean getting a company to make a factory, get the resources and work force, and then make a quality product worth stockpiling. It's cheaper to just buy ammo through the US...unless something non credible motivated them of course
That's 'cos Australia is a US state wannabe whereas Canada can think for itself
Australia has to be careful because they have to play a game between the US and China
Yeah, I understand. I'm a NZr, we have the same issue but with less resources
How standardized is the accounting anyway? Does the US Army Corps of engineers count as military spending? Because in most countries that budget would be categorized as civil infrastructure work and not be affiliated with the military in any way.
From what I hear it sure as hell ain't spent on active duty dorms!
A big chunk of the US military's budget is on very expensive US healthcare. Something like 7% of the military's annual budget is health expenses, and that doesn't even include the Department of Veterans Affairs, which provides health care to veterans.
