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.

Admin from lemmy.ml basically summed up in a comic, definitely check out his profile for sequels

The one reply he says US is Balkanizing Russia is hilarious, the stretch these Russian bot farms make

One of his recent replies (under 1h ago):

You’d think the West would have taken it seriously after Crimea was annexed. But even after losing most of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson, there are still imperial core labor aristocrat clowns like you, still failing to read the room.

His handler needs to tell him to tone it down. It's just too unbelievable

he's just got a severe case of engineer's syndrome

He's basically taking advantage of his position in the only instance where a Lemmy dev is present as admin (who probably isn't aware of what this admin has been up to, maybe), to spread propaganda, it goes from Chinese propaganda narratives to Russian propaganda, his profile is full of it and he replies quite often, I wonder how he has so much time..

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 35 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I see you’re new. The two main lemmy devs are tankies themselves

[–] dennis@midwest.social 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Whew, thats disappointing.. I didn't know, thanks for the heads up!

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Sure is! I’ve heard some are working on a compatible fork to get away from the platform being dependent upon them; not sure where that stands though.

The drop in replacement is Sublinks, though it hasn't gotten any commits since augest, so it might be a while.

The most promising potential replacement is Piefed, which is already operational. It's ahead of Lemmy in some ways, and rougher in others, but the Dev is a chill dude :)

Also @dennis@midwest.social

from what i understand, they dgaf about other instances

Aristocrat clown rides into the ring in a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, 100 clowns pile outta that beast. You're in good company here. I want to be Hobo Clown With the latest iPhone.
