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. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

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 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. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread 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.

This will lead to the extinction of birds in warzones.

Declaring war on birds has not gone well, historically.

The Australians are still shook to this day. Never forget.

The Chinese lost a couple of million to that idea. The Australian Trauma should not be forgotten but is a bit negligible compared to the Chinese

That's what the Emus puppeting the corpses of the slaughtered population of Australia want you to think.

You didn't think the Murdoch infestation was made of real human beings, did you?

If I were to always believe that other beings are behind any weird or outright deviant behaviour, I'd need an ERA-reinforced tin-foil hat

Ah, good 'ol Four Pests campaign. Only killed like 20 – 30 million people

It's crazy what I never heard about in school. 20-30 million dead from an important ecological lesson, but we gotta learn about Christopher Columbus's dumb ass in every grade.

Beh, birds get fucked over by war as it is because it destroys natural habitats, and for example the Ukraine war has been a real disaster for birds. I doubt bird-like drones would make this markedly worse.

[–] YourPrivatHater@ani.social 3 points 1 month ago

I don't think war is good for nature currently, but when drones look like birds they will get shot down and so will the birds.

That fake bird has nothing on this fake bird.
