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.

I can't fuckin believe he backed down after Luka intervened. Who in his right mind and power crosses the Rubicon, then crosses it back? Prigozhin will lose his power AND life soon because of this dumb decision

My guess is he didn't get the reaction he expected and was offered exile. He saw a quick death if he continued and the chance to defect west or something if he stopped. I think stopping becomes the obvious move in that case.

The bigger question is why did he start in the first place? What conditions existed that meant that was the best move.

My million dollars question really is: what Luka told him to stop? My money's on something like "we have your daughter", which, as I remember, is living in St. Petersburg

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

My money is either that, or something along the lines of "I hate Putin too. I'll protect you, and the clout I get from this will help me do so"

Who's got the dead pool? My bet is 3 months.

@maggoty, angry potato has been confirmed to be relatively alive in Belarus. Source: yesterday's episode of the Telegraph podcast "Ukraine: The Latest". I'm an Autist of my word. Which charity you want honored with a gift in your name? DNC? ANC? NBA? HIMARS?

[–] Maggoty 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh definitely HIMARS. Shouldn't we be doing it in his name though?

[–] verity_kindle 1 points 1 year ago

Sure, I would, but then my assets might be frozen
