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.

How come nobody worships ME as a god, huh? I'm at LEAST as awesome as Gen MacArthur

Also my ankle hurts so I called into work

Also also, thanks for driving me to look up Ridgway.

On the day of the Germans' furthest advance in the Battle of the Bulge, Ridgway commented to his subordinate officers in the XVIII Airborne Corps: "The situation is normal and completely satisfactory. The enemy has thrown in all his mobile reserves, and this is his last major offensive effort in this war. This Corps will halt that effort; then attack and smash him."

Fuckin DOPE

I certainly wouldn't want to be remembered like or compared to MacArthur in any way at all. It's funny he's thought of as a God of War there, probably should be a god of death. Cuz if he had his way that entire Peninsula would have been wiped out by nuclear weapons.

[–] MaggiWuerze 14 points 1 month ago

Sounds to me like pretty standard deity behavior, better sacrifice some virgins or shit to avoid his nuclear wrath

RIDGWAY LET'S GOOOO

Macarthur can eat a bag of dicks, that prick. Ridgeway all day.

[–] Shipgirlboy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

MacArthur, obviously, because I have a vague idea who that was (it's the guy from that song about a park, or something).
I have no idea who Ridgway was, or Grand Admiral Thrawn for that matter ( sounds like something from a Star Trek or idk)

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Thrawn was in Star Wars. One of the few people who could tell Vader off and survive.

I don't want to be remembered at all. If I'm being remembered, it means that I'm dead
