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.

Each officer is required to wear 15 pieces of flair minimum.

Immortan Joe had less swag on his armor than these guys! Do they worry that they'll get too many and not be able to wear them all, and disrespect Dear Leader?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Or collapse under the shear weight of them?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

Unless they are all plastic...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Or can use them as pellets against enemies thus saving some ammunitions for the country.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

What could these awards really be for though?

[–] [email protected] 56 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

In North Korea, it is tradition to wear your father's and grandfather's honors in addition to your own. This means someone whose familty has had a long military tradition would accumulate quite the display.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh wow that's interesting, I'm radically ambivalent on this one

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago

If there's one thing that says socialist paradise it's hereditary positions and honors

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I can never tell if people are telling the truth or bullshitting...

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In fairness, that's the same thing I've heard since the mid 2000s. So if it's bullshit, it's long-running bullshit. Like the eating spiders in your sleep thing

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Spiders Georg likes to gorge on spiders.

In NCD, does it matter?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

It would make sense, since eastern asia has the focus more on family vs. individual.

This fuckin guy has me dying 🤣

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago

Well that's ironic, cause dear leader has HIM dying!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago

I cant tell if he is about to sneeze, shat his pants, is having a stroke, or all three at once.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

Korean Forest Whitaker.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

Why do they all look like stroke victims??

Also, what are the medals for? Least credible answer gets a prize

I think this is AI slop. Reverse image searching leads here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAQrbjDzP6o and the top comment is even the lemmy OPs joke.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

God damn it I'm so done with this world

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

I fucking hope it's AI lol, it looks like a theme party in a retirement community.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

North Korean medals are for years of service without being sent to labor camps by dear leader. They’re like Xbox achievements and get progressively harder as time goes on.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Valor in battle

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Sharing skills and experience with junior officers.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Cheese making. It's not credible because they have never seen milk, let alone cheese!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is false, generals are raised on Kim's breast milk, which turns into cheese upon leaving his glorious nipple.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm sorry, I forgot about the Dear Leader's nipple cheese

ummm...That is not a phrase I expected to type today

Also it's my new band name

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

Also, what are the medals for?

Being on the same team as the great dear leader, who obviously always won every game ever

Its the sequel to Warframe: 1999, Warframe: North Korea.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Magnets dont work on tin...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

You don't have a neutron star lying around for these occasions?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The north Koreans are so poor all the medals are probably steel.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago
[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Tinsel foil isn't magnetic though.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I think that's the joke hahaha

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago
[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

These men all look like pieces of fruit left out in a hot, dry climate.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago

One medal for each time he kissed deer leader's ass.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Is it tradition to create medals that look like a child designed and stamped them out?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

They're just foil from chocolate coins. Kim ate all the chocolate, of course

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

If we took away the officers we would at least give the soldiers a fighting chance, under equipped and trained as they doubtless are.
