      Top image is Bolivian students being rounded up by the CIA-backed military in 1971.

      Middle picture is the US invasion of Panama in 1989.

      Bottom picture is current Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó, and a certain US president who seems interested in removing Nicolás Maduro.

        Couldn’t find something more futuristic for the middle image?

          Not my meme, I stole it. But I think the Panama invasion was the end of the golden age (/s) of US fuckery in Latin America? Things were relatively quiet (or I’m uninformed) until the first Trump administration started fishing for coup participants.

            I suppose that’s true, I can’t think of much in the 90’s, and it’s been long enough I would expect there to be declassifications.

      Probably the CIA going in.

      Or the Nobel Peace prize winner asking Trump to stop Mauro.

        he has authorised the CIA to conduct covert operations in Venezuela - a highly unusual admission of what is normally a highly sensitive and tightly guarded state secret.

        A tightly guarded what?

        Also, as if they need permission from the president to do that. Sure they do…

        🤣🤣🤣🤣

        The other sport could be Castro assassination attempts. The CIA team with the most attempts in a given year would win lol.

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.
