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.

Maybe we'll see an influx of new users from r/NCD. Maybe we'll see some more activity here! I only lurk these parts (same on reddit) because it's fun to read shitposts every now and then.

It's pretty dumb for RA to go after NCD, I clicked on far too many NSFW posts without realizing what it was as they weren't labeled. The arguments NCD mods present with sources are true. I feel like it's reddit just trying to stem the loss of money. Their IPO valuation has lost 41% of its value in a year^[1] and now their bottom line is being affected because users realized advertisements aren't shown on NSFW subs.^[2]


  1. Bloomberg News - Reddit Made the Mistake of Ignoring Its Core Users

  2. The Verge - Reddit demands moderators remove NSFW labels, or else

[–] PigglyWiggly@sh.itjust.works 32 points 2 years ago

Goes to show Reddit admins realize that 87% of their platforms value is stored in B-21 Raider Waifu memes.

Source: trust me bro

[–] Shit@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You should join in the shit posting the world keeps getting more noncredible by the week 🙂

[–] PoppinKREAM@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 years ago

I think NCD provides enough mobikcube memes to be self-sustainable. Which is another reason why RA demanding the sub no longer be NSFW is farcical lol

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I picked this instance simply and entirely because it had the most active NCD spinoff on lemmy. I wish we could get the whole goddamn crowd out here.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago

You don't need to be on any particular instance to visit any other (so long as your instance isn't defederated). I picked lemm.ee because it isn't defederated from much, but more importantly the admin seems to know his stuff and has been making key contributions to the Lemmy codebase (as well as updating his mods into his instance first).

[–] Shit@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

You can crosspost between the less active instances to here. I kind of like that we have other options if things go south here as well.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Ideally, I'd like to see us have our own instance, rather than still being on someone else's platform.

[–] Kbin_space_program@kbin.social 18 points 2 years ago

Their valuation lost 41% before any of the current mess

[–] larsmaehlum@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can confirm that people are joining from r/NCD
Surprised to find some other essential subs here as well (including reddevils)

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I also picked this instance because I need my NCD fix, and because I liked the culture here

[–] munkisquisher@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What's a good ncd alternative here?

[–] MonsieurHedge@kbin.social 22 points 2 years ago

You are literally on m/NonCredibleDefense.

[–] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 years ago

Congrats, you're one of the first Lost Lemmings. 😅

[–] smoll_pp_operator@vlemmy.net 5 points 2 years ago

I just wanted to say I'm glad to see your account active here. You provide some excellently sourced comments.

[–] qwamqwamqwam@sh.itjust.works 47 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

~~Holy fucking based.~~

Edit: nevermind, their newest post reverses all the protest changes lest they get kicked out. Why are mods so attached to their fake internet power?

[–] Jumuta@sh.itjust.works 36 points 2 years ago (11 children)

I hope more people migrate to Lemmy for this lmao

[–] corq@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'm new to Lemmy, and had just gotten "into" r/NCD over the last year.

I'm sure I'll probably skim NCD for the memes, but I'm seriously impressed with Lemmy. I hope this portends good things for the future.

I'm kind of a n00b as a shitposter though, i've got a lot of miltary history to read through. The NCD community has provided (no matter where they are hosted) literally some of the best 'hidden history' lessons I've ever encountered. I seriously hope Lemmy is adopted as a legitimate alternative.

I FUCKING LOVE IT WHEN THE WHEELS FALL OFF VENTURE CAPITAL.

(I've noticed that posts over here seem to lack excessive capitalisation, which is at least 32% of what gives NCD it's peculiar charm).

[–] Helldiver_M@kbin.social 21 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Thanks for cross-posting this @PigglyWiggly. I just included an update in my original Kbin post, which I'm sure you're all already aware of by now. But just in case you weren't; The mods have capitulated, and the sub is SFW again: https://teddit.adminforge.de/r/NonCredibleDefense/comments/14t393z/ncd_admins_and_you_recent_developments_inside/

As a certain former first gentleman once said, "For the first time, I was proud of my noncredible country."

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I saw some people over there suggesting nsfw gore and porn memes to justify the nsfw label, should we help out? I'm not on Reddit anymore, but I could make an exception

[–] erin@lemmy.sidh.bzh 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

no, you should not, if you create an account on reddit, you add value to reddit and give money to spez. Let just hope for a bigger migration of r/NCD over here instead ^^

[–] MomoTimeToDie@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Alternatively, you can make a reddit account to spam illegal content all over reddit, wasting their resources and making them look bad to advertisers

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Nah, too much work. We gotta get some secret shit done in Crimea. WITH OUR AUTISM.

[–] SexWithSilverWolf@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

~~Based~~

Nevermind

[–] Random_German_Name@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago

There is a community to shit on Reddit !bluereddit@feddit.de

[–] Evoke3626@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

So based. Bless that sub and it’s people lmao
