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.

hmm unfortunately for this plan everything nuclear is a bit more difficult for the President to do willy nilly.
less dangerous but more funny would be for him to resign and let Harris be the 47th President. you know Trump and his cult have plowed millions into "47" merch that would suddenly become worthless to them.
(there are a lot of things that he can do that SCOTUS has preemptively granted him immunity for, though...)
Who says we want less danger? We're already in the
...
Oh, burn. Guess they'd have to go send something to the printers. What will th Dems think of next.
I'd like to see him ship everything that would have gone to Israel to Ukraine instead
O sorry about the shipping mix up Love it
The thing is, where Putin has oligarchs that would dump him in a hot second if he dropped a bomb, Trump is absolutely eager to blow shit up and doesn't care / can't process the consequences of dropping the first nuclear bomb in hostility^†^ and breaking the black ice.
In Trump's first term no-one in the Department of Energy or the Department of Defense brass were MAGA loyalists, even though many considered themselves Republican, conservative and endorsed US military interventionism and adventurism. So when they were told (for instance) to nuke the snot out of North Korea to give them what for, Mattis was there to say no. None of the later secretaries of defense under Trump (Shanahan, Esper, Spencer, and Miller) would have authorized a nuclear strike either. And if one of them did, the generals under them were likely to resign than carry out such an order.
Enter Project 2025's Schedule F plan, which is going to retire all the old brass US loyalists that are sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States (and mean it) and replace them with Trump loyalists, who, when asked to launch a nuclear strike against somewhere in the other side of the world will say Yes Sir! (or By Your Command ) or ( With Pleasure ) whatever the going evil-empire affirmative salute is.
So it is a ~~likely possibility~~ ~~non-zero~~ not-insignificant possibility President Donald J. Trump will order a nuclear strike during his second term, and it will be carried out by the department of defense. He still really wants to express his fire and fury and show the world his dick is absolutely the biggest.
I thought about this during Trump's first term (and pondering the possibility of Hope, Montana getting nuked -- three times! -- at the end of Far Cry 5 ), imagining that unlike Greg Stillson in The Dead Zone bullying his principals to launch a first strike, Mattis would be there, steak-knife in hand to save the world from a rogue president. He actually did, just without the confrontation or the need of a steak-knife. But it means the Heritage Foundation is forewarned this time.
† Yes, technically two atomic bombs have been dropped in hostility, but after Castle Bravo / Bikini Atoll we quietly shifted from the atomic age to the nuclear age. It's a significant difference. Hiroshima had about a 15KT yield (12-18KT estimated) while Bikini Atoll had a 15MT yield (that's 1000x Hiroshima). US Peacekeeper missles carry ten MIRV 0.5MT warheads and bombs dropped from airplanes are 2.1MT. So yeah, we've had atomic war, but not nuclear war.
Yall too serious
And making me read and shit. At least add some pictures yall know I'm fucking dumb
Let’s zoom in on that footnote:
Orange president, orange humanity.
We all know he doesn't have enough spine to do that.
Fuck it I'll do it

I saw another funny post saying he should abdicate now so that Kamala Harris is President 47 and Trump has to scrap a bunch of Merchandise.
He doesn't even have the spine to do this.
Yeah, realistically he'll just do what Obama did and act like a good teacher giving Trump the details needed to do whatever needs to be done in emergencies. Trump, of course, will soak it all up like a metal bar: not at all.
He at least needs to throw in some stuff to send Dumpie on a wild goose chase, like referencing aliens in basement BS-13 or alluding to a vault filled with rare cheeto flavors
He ain't gonna get rich doing what needs to be done Merica! Fuck yeah. Only losers have emergencies.
And it would be soooooo funny to watch everyone who bought one to have the wrong fucking number on their shirts and still wear them out and about
^^ This would be golden
True baller move
This could happen without meaning to. Just takes a medical procedure that puts biden under and temporarily you have 47th president kamala until he wakes back up... assuming they go through the whole transfer of power procedure for it.
Never know if he's been putting off a procedure for a condition until after the election. Very plausible though for someone over 80.
She was acting president during his colonoscopy, that didn't technically make her the 47th.
Correct. If we counted every president medical procedure as a new president we would be well in to the 100s by now. Just off the top of my head Reagan and both Bushes had various procedures that briefly granted VPs presidential power, Kamala was far from the first here, even if she was the first black woman to hold it.
.. Andnow I'm vaguely curious if anyone has ever gone back and tallied up this objectively useless number of people who at one point were acting president. 😂
Hit me up when you have that data.
I thought that said Putin Synthesizer. Lke what a Geiger–Müller counter?
Bleep bleep bleep
Does he even need to send them anything? Doesn't he just have to say a few words to give Ukraine permission to build their own? Although I guess if they lose US support, they wouldn't need permission anymore.
Doesn't he just have to say a few words to give Ukraine permission to build their own?
He already did, it's right there in the Bible:
Genesis 6:9
"And Bidens said, 'Let there be light'. Then he slapped on his Aviators, took a sweet slide over the hood, and hopped in his 1967 Stingray and drove off into the sunset."
I would unironically fully support this course of action
I just think they're neat.
