So, it's pretty clear Russia plans to invade other neighbors, right?

2009

Thank you for mentioning this. I didn't take notice at the time (a bit too young still) and never properly read up on their invasion of Georgia.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 55 points 2 days ago

It's a pretty safe bet.

Oh yeah, it's the county clerk's office and they're the Blues Brothers.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 2 days ago

Given how this one's going, that doesn't seem like a great plan.

Yes, the terror of nuclear annihilation will be significantly tempered by the hilarity if he tries taking on Europe.

Okay, that sounds sarcastic, but I think I actually mean it. He will get rekt and it will be satisfying. Then I'll turn to figuring out nuclear winter in fucking Canada.

Do not confuse Russia with Putin and his regime. This. Is. Important.

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I'm not convinced it's that important since the Russian people will be the ones affecting the invasion. Dramatic punctuation doesn't change the fact that Putin has been in continuous control of Russia for decades. He's their guy. I think the American public is complicit in genocide of Palestinians. Why would the Russian public get a pass for the misdeads of their government?

[-] AllToRuleThemOne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Of course they will be affected and already do be. I don‘t get the point? No, he is not. A lot of people got arrested and/or killed because they protested (way before the „special operation“) and a lot of people fled the country. Unfortunately the core state of the USSR never managed to establish a functionsl democracy. But clannishness is bullshit. Putin made himself over decades a de facto dictator - tsar? Well, dramatic punctuation does in fact emphasize core ideas: To be Russian =/= To be evil or supporting putin.

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Nobody called anybody evil. This isn't about clans. People who live in Russia (ie Russians) will be the ones on the ground doing the invading. Whether they like it or not, they are supporting Putin. It's not really important what's in the heart of Ivan on the ground if he's picking up a rifle or mass producing fasteners used in the construction of tanks.

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.
