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.

Nah. It's gonna be bird flu.
Covid shut down the world with a death rate of like 1%.
Bird flu is 56%.
Don't let the sink in. It's coughing and looks like it's got Bird flu.
And this time people know to get mad and deliberately cough on each other for freedom in advance, instead of just buying TP.
I think bird flu is deadly enough that people will actually take it seriously, the survival rate of Covid was high enough it was possible you would know multiple people who've had it and survived.
But if it does kick off, it's going to kick off with absolutely the worst people in charge of managing it coupled with lunatics running podcasts who see everything as a conspiracy or are snakeoil salesman/women with a massive reach.
It's going to rival the Black Death if it happens under Trumps administration.
no it won't. plenty of infected people probably got under the radar because they thought it's regular flu. covid initially had much higher fatality too
Thankfully, I'm nowhere near the USA, and my country has largely competent leaders, so I'll be watching in horror from the other side of the world.
H5N1 has never left, there were outbreaks 20 years ago already
"I've seen this one before!"
Por que no los dos?
Bird flu pandemic + actual hot nuclear´war. This is doinh miracles for my mental health. I always felt as if nothing really ever mattered.
It doesn't. We'll be a tiny stain on an otherwise lifeless rock.
fortunately the death rate of Bird flu is much lower. look at what's going on in the US milk industry. there are hundreds of infections amongst workers, very few died.
