The Iran ~~war~~ excursion is now in it's ~~11th~~ 6th week. Everyone is having such a ~~blast~~ great time.
6 (unitless).
Yes but you're comparing apples and oranges.
Let's see it compared about America's other military excursions.
Perhaps you can ask the Department of Excursions.
It's amazing how he misheard "incursion" and now the media has to talk about an excursion with a straight face.
I love the current gas prices it makes me feel like I’m contributing to the war efforts.
You're contributing to Russian finances to maintain their war efforts
6 week special military excursion

more like Iran Diversion From Pedolf Shitler's Epstein Files.
He lost that war in record time.
They didn't tell him that all the others also officially weren't wars.
War of 1812 and WW2 were official wars.

Duck you for baiting me into writing that.
"I'm going to post about this ongoing war were doing in Iran by directly comparing it to the U.S.'s longest, deadliest, biggest wastes of life and money in the last few centuries. Wars that had such a profound effect that we still feel those effects today."
"Why?"
"To downplay the seriousness of our current (ongoing) war. Actually I don't even call it a war, but an "excursion" to make double sure they know it's not that serious (I'll keep calling it a war on camera though)."
"Do you think that maybe putting it next to those wars might come off as more ominous and concerning than calming? That people will rightfully point out that ALL of those wars had only been going on for 6 weeks at one time and that that fact clearly wasn't an indicator of their eventual seriousness? And moreover that if it starts to become truly comparable in length, scope, and death toll to those wars that this post obviously attempting downplay it will be a point of ridicule much like the "Mission Accomplished" banner of the Bush era?"
"No. I don't think so."
It's kind of hilarious how the USA is just turning into Russia slowly.
Ooh nice one Donny, wanna do us one that compares the monetary cost of those wars? Equalised for inflation or whatever.
This dumbass actually forgot he didn't even end Afghanistan.
Its like comparing apples and excursions
Dudes turning into the proverbial corn cob on the social media site he owns.
The whole planet is on a cob, Morty! The whole planet is on a cob, GO GO GO!
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.
