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.

oh for fucks sake, now i suddenly remember how the timeline in the fallout franchise included the US annexing canada...

yep. we're in the darkest timeline.

[–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 27 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Yeah, but thats only after China invaded.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 35 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

China invaded Alaska, so the US forcibly annexed Canada because they wouldn't let troops cross the land border due to natural resource disputes. With the exception of "oops, no transistors", the prewar geopolitical fallout lore is ~~extremely~~ somewhat realistic

Edit: I haven't thought about the lore in a long time, it's less realistic than I remember. However the progression of the resource wars is very solid

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago

Two Ohios, this truly is the darkest timeline :(

If Americans try it, they better be ready for the snow banks to talk. I will die before I become an American

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Michigan sends its regards, they have an snowplow to grind and they just might indulge you maple syrup drinking leaf bastards!

...do I really need the /s?

Nah man one Ohio to the south of me is enough. We don't need a second.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago

It's not a second, it's a different thing. North Carolina is a different thing from South Carolina. We'll be North Ohio. And what we used to call Northern Ontario, we'll call New North Ohio.

Kill imperialist aggressors. Has Daddy Putin taught Diaperload Donnie nothing? The war in Ukraine demonstrates how a small nation can bloody the nose of a so-called superpower. Herr Drumpf must realize this is not fiction. So after Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq (twice) hasn't America learned ANYTHING?

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't think Canada could do much of anything to stop a US invasion. OTOH, I don't think America could do anything to stop Canadian guerillas after an invasion.

Imagine trying to stop a population that is essentially indistinguishable from your own citizens, in a country where your own citizens are allowed to walk around carrying essentially the same rifles used by the armed forces. And that's not even considering that probably half the US would be on the side of the guerillas.

[–] Adm_Drummer@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As a gorilla, they could do nothing to stop me.

This is what Harambe was trying to warn us about...

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It's so clear now.

[–] istdaslol@feddit.org 13 points 2 days ago

Well your chicken now gives you twices as much eggs and you get 2 caps per egg instead of 3$ per egg, so inflation got owned

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

It's Army chow, the eggs are free! How much cheaper do you want them to be?

[–] weeeeum@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Because we are going to pillage Canada for everything they have to reward trumps voter base

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago (3 children)

But then you'll add a bunch of left-leaning citizens to the voter pool, which screws the Republicans in the long run.

You know what, this is starting to sound like a less bad idea

[–] PuddleOfKittens@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They keep saying "51st state", which implies Canada will only be a single state under the electoral college, and thus will be shafted just like California.

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

He should have said territory. The people wouldn’t even be able to vote then.

[–] weeeeum@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Bold to assume we'd have another election for that to matter

Or that the democrats won't snatch defeat from the jaws of victory again.

[–] Fitzsimmons@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

At absolute best Canada will be a territory, but that will still be "bad" since it means that people born here will be US citizens and have freedom of movement. Much more likely that we'll end up with an Israel-Palestine type scenario where they just gradually violently displace Canadians off of any resources they want, starve us literally and economically with embargos, assassinate any non-extremist political leadership, and enslave us

[–] higgsboson@dubvee.org 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

How're ya now?

[–] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I would certainly vote for Trudeau for POTUS in 2028
