    I seriously don’t get what NCD is all about. What’s the theme there? No defense for what exactly?

        Defence often being a euphemism for the military.

        “Department of Defence” “Defence Spending” etc. For countries that use their military chiefly for offensive operations, the euphemism almost sounds Orwellesque. “Department of Peace” “Department of Truth”…

      It’s like shitposting about stupid military stuff to cope with the morbid waste. Don’t tell them I said that, they hate being credible serious
