    …Why is Franklin using a Russian RPG from a Huey when he should be sitting in a cushy Langley office controlling the drone launching Hellfire missiles at passing recreational sailors?

      Those offices are not cushy. The fan never works properly. The AC makes it so it has 10000 ft of temperature difference in 10 feet. And can someone bring me another frappachino?

        There’s also a muzzle flash, which isn’t how an RPG works.

            That would actually be a genius move. Make a post about all the dangers of using an RPG in this way, as well as the technical inaccuracy of the muzzle flash.

      Sitting at a desk all day, starting at screens, can become so banal. Variety is the spice of life, no? If you aren’t using black-market RPGs to blast vaguely identified boats from the open side of a Vietnam-era helicopter then are you even living?

    Actually a very unlikely picture as Franklin is a Canadian children story series. Multiple books have circulated for decades. So unlikely that a Canadian character would be performing murders on behalf of the fascist regime headquartered in Peter Teels mansion.

    Funny coincidence:

    Franklin’s theme song is by a French Canadian artist named Bruce Cockburn (…pronounced co-burn) who also has a wonderful song called “If I had a Rocket Launcher”

        Cool!

        Doesn’t matter, not with the rear of the rpg being angled more or less directly at the roof.

        If it was being held horizontally?

        Yeah maybe different story.

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.
