NonCredibleDefense
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.

With Europe paying for them. The US president is oh so kind to allow us to buy them at full list price. Thanks, ally
oh so you want us to STARVE??
I mean, some reduction in food intake would be good for 80% of your population
To be honest, I think that's barely a footnote.
Like, yeah, transfer some made up numbers from our computer to your computer, whatever. Money has a different meaning when it comes to the state that manages it spending it. ECB will adjust its interest rate a month later or something to make up for it. The issue right now is that Europe has neither stockpiles nor production capacity, so the USA sending their hardware is the game changer.
And who's fault is that? The US has been creating its own military industrial complex for the last 75 years, spending literally half of its budget on useless weapons that will barely get used, all at the cost of benefits that its citizens could have had.
Meanwhile, Europe has two tugboats and some leftover AK-47s in a warehouse somewhere.
You make it sound like I said something different?
It's more like 15% of the whole annual budget. About half of the discretionary budget, but then you add in interest payments and social security and things like that.
But yes, the rest of the Western world has been complacent as hell.
