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. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

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 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. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread 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.

i don't get what the guy in the middle panel is there for, standing on the dome of the rock. if it's funny, i don't get the reference, can someone enlighten me.

oh and that speaker icon is annoying in the bottom right of the lower panel.

i decided to repair the meme by removing these two elements, and then adding alt text. enjoy.

a three panel meme, with depictions of the middle east. panel 1 says "born too late to deploy to the middle east". panel 2 says "born too early to deploy to the middle east". panel 3 says "born just in time to deploy to the middle east".

When I was reading Sherlock Holmes (which is set in the late 19th century), I was slightly amused and startled that Dr Watson got hurt in the war in Afghanistan.

In the Benedict Cumberbatch remake set in the 21st century, Dr. Watson is also hurt in the Afghan War.

How mad it must be to be Afghani, people from everywhere constantly invading.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Meh. The Mongols -- those were invaders. The US and Brits, both modern and Victorian, by contrast, were basically tourists

Also the Poles, they got their tank back. :D

There is never not a good time to fight a war in the middle east!

Now just imagine if it didn't have the "Holy land".
