Shitposting about geopolitics, diplomacy, and current events for shits and giggles
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 bad diplomacy 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 elsewhere.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about international diplomacy. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or talk about military tactics or equipment. There are other places for that.
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. Please leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your 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.
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
NonCredibleDiplomacy 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.

Yeah kinda but then half of you idiots elected a pedophile and half of you decided not to vote so you are all idiots.
you gotta understand, the alternative was to vote for a woman.
Would it really be worse than four years with Trump?
It's really a toss up, when you think about it
She literally campaigned on bombing Iran
Trumplethinskin didn't, but still did
Yeah and americans are stupid fucks for the most part who believed him. Harris had an easy win and fucked it up for everyone
She could have basically said nothing and won but went on to say a lot of stupid shit that put simple people off
Was that listed in her platform?
She specifically said that she would "never hesitate to take whatever action necessary to protect US interests from Iran," in addition to promising to ensure the US has "the most lethal military in the world."
The funny part is, this can work for both Harris and Hillary.
and continuing the Gaza genocide.
I know, she was another neoliberal tool, better than trump, but we're comparing shit, v toxic shit
So what's with the bullshit about it being because she's a woman? Her campaign was horrible, at least trump lied about not starting new wars lol
Americans were starting ww3 regardless of what side they voted for so I kind of understand those who obstained
I've had this conversation so many times. didn't feel like tying the same things over and over,
There's nothing to be gained from it
Yeah there's nothing to be gained by claiming sexism when it wasn't the reason she lost
Maga rallies behind tons of women
I was going to vote for Cornel West but ultimately voted for the cackling one. If Cornel West ran again, I would vote for him.
Rapist
It used to be blue?
Someone posted this recently and I appreciated someone in the comments pointing out the guy riding his bike/unicycle into the pool lol
I'm from the area, then/now/20 years ago you would NEVER walk in that pool. Its been full of goose shit as long as I can remember.
I have bad news about every single body of open water.
I've heard fish fuck in it.
That's why I only drink water
Have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water or rainwater? And only pure grain alcohol?
To play the devil's advocate: the comment says 20 years ago. Your source is a movie that's 3 decades old and the scene takes place quite a few decades earlier
We used to be a proper country (for the most part).
We used to be a proper country (for the most part).
a colony that through genocide and then slavery became a "country" to later fuck up the rest of the world through wars or conspiracies
still today bombing a country on the other side of the world and threatening to invade at least 2 neighbors
not to forget that the same country, populated by the grand children of the colonizers, are imprisoning the newcomers and their children too
We used to be a proper country (for the most part).
when exactly?
And now it's the domain of the Swamp Thing. Swamp Thing 2026
What revolution?
This is making fun of a Mossad/CIA theme of posts on reddit that hit the frontpage many times over the past years. The format is
- Picture of young beautiful woman from an affluent household
- Preferably in her pyjamas or in a bikini
- Caption "Before the revolution Iran was a very Westernized country"
The point was to manufacture consent for war. Yankee incels in the comments would then thirst for liberating Iranian women and fantasize about getting a piece.
The one where the AI Surveillance State takes over.
Not sure what op means... Maybe the jan 6 coup? Which technically was more successful than we give it credit for (after all, they're all pardoned, and their guy is in power and unchecked, so...)?
Probably a play on the Iranian revolution meme
No spoilers for upcoming political events please. Just wait and see
