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.

Let's not joke hear CA doesn't stand a chance. They've no nukes. They lack economic power. And they don't have a cultural identity beyond "hey we aren't America". The last thing Canada wants is to fight a global super power.
Sure, maybe they’d win the invasion easily, but can they win an occupation of a hostile populace for an indeterminate duration? The 21st Century repeatedly suggests the answer to that is “no, eh”.
That is literally the most terrifying thing you could've said.
And they’re absolutely armed to the teeth in terms of guns per capita.
occupation of people who are virtually indistinguishable at a glance. Just ask the Russians how that worked out in Eastern Ukraine, the only way they could ever secure the place was by killing pretty much everyone.
The last thing the US wants is to be a pariah to the UK, Australia, NZ and South Africa. Them old commonwealth loyalties run deep. Not to mention France would take extreme exception to Quebec.
Even if we didnt intervene militarily we all love Canada, It would be economic suicide.
South Africa is already against America, they're in bed with China and Russia, they're the S of "BRICS"
And the B has a semi socialist leader trying to clean up Bolsonaro's mess. Definitely not a monolith.
"Hey we aren't X" has earned the presidency of the United States every 4 years for at least as long as I've been alive. Never doubt the power of "hey we aren't X".
In fact, that should be Metas new slogan.
Bluesky: Hey we aren't X
Germany, Austria and Switzerland speak German, and are still different countries. US, UK, Canada, NZ and Australia speak English, and are different countries France and Belgium speak French, are different countries. The entire Arabic speaking world is spread across like 20 countries. Russia and Ukraine both speak Russian*, and one tried to merge with the other, violently, and are now bitter enemies probably forever..
Is "Fuck off and leave people alone" an option in peoples brains?
You're gonna nuke an upwind state that you'd like to conquer? It'd be a drone fight like Ukraine.
California’s economy ranks fifth internationally, behind the US, China, Germany, and Japan. On a per capita basis, California’s GDP is greater than that of all of these countries.
Dude, that's bogus. This is literally the same bullshit Putin says about Ukraine.
They aren't talking about California
Oh. Good point. 🤦♂️
Well in that case everything but economic power still stands.
I here you but what if they challenge us to a hockey game? I don't think we're prepared for how ugly this can get.
Canada sucked major ass at the world juniors this year. USA has won back to back.
And it's hockey season, you ever try to get between a Canadian and a good hockey game? They'll win so fast they don't have time to get sober!
Congress needs to ask the pentagon why they maintain a wide threatening lead I'm Zamboni technology!

Just think of all those US soldiers slipping and sliding across the zamboni fields while the graceful Canadians glide on their skis. No attacker stands a chance.
Sir I assure you this community tolerates only the most serious conversations.
more like global super senile and retarded amirite
