Nice spin. The point is that NCD is defense themed and Nato themed, not that the pictures aren't of atrocities.
NATO “defence” 🍆 ✊
Fuck. That is wild. The Nazis just changed uniforms.
Hey this was informative! Let's do the scientists who built their weapons next! Or are we ignoring those?
Don't say that he's hypocritical
Say rather that he's apolitical

NCD is not about "defence" it's about war and the glorification of weapons used to murder children. At best it's ironic and incredibly tasteless, more realistically, they're just a bunch of bloodthirsty fascists hiding behind irony for plausible deniability.
Claiming that any of the war crimes pictured was anything to do with "defense" (as opposed to "offense" or, better yet, "bloodthirsty neocolonial conquest") is olympic-tier mental gymnastics.
NATO is the largest Imperialist millitary coalition in the world, NCD being NATO focused directly means that it's focused on celebrating Imperialist atrocities.
In OP are images of what NATO, an organization that has never fought a defensive war in its entire existence, calls defense.
The US is not NATO. Especially now with Trump in daddy Putins pocket.
It kinda is tho. It was set up by the US to counter the Warsaw pact and prey upon neutral countries, as Blinken put it "If you're not at the table, you're on the menu". This is evidenced by every single NATO action being in the US's interest.
As funny as it would be for Trump to dismantle NATO, his only issue with it is that it doesn't do enough imperialism.
