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.

Are we doing the "everything I don't like is Hitler" thing now?

I don't like the guy either, but let's judge the technology on it's own merits, shall we?

The guy used Xitter, a platform he owns, to promote a transphobic documentary made by Matt Walsh. Matt Walsh's Xitter bio famously begins with the words "theocratic fascist", or, y'know, Nazi. If Xitter has been used to push anti-trans propaganda made by Nazis, who says Starlink won't? I don't think Musk gives a xit about net neutrality.

Are we doing the "I defend nazis but try to falsify my stance by pretending to not like them" thing now?

Guy bought a platform to elevate nazi speech among other forms of hate, and uses his position to elevate it while banning those who speak against said speech. If it walks like a duck, looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck - you don't need a 5 page thesis and notarized notice of allegiance to the third reich to tell its a duck. 🤷

Let's all keep this civil, please. No need for hair pulling and name calling.

Why didn't he get griped at about it too? 🤔

You're the one who went off on an unprompted rant about nazis, that's why.
