Summary
Trump stated the U.S. will “go as far as we have to go” to gain control of Greenland, citing national and international security needs.
JD Vance will visit Greenland’s Pituffik military base, scaling back a broader visit amid backlash from Greenland and Denmark.
Greenlandic Prime Minister Mute Egede condemned the move as “aggressive pressure” and insisted that “Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders.”
Trump has repeatedly expressed interest in acquiring Greenland, asserting that U.S. control is essential for security.
See my other replies in here on what I’m already doing, which isn’t unique to me specifically, many are doing these things. What else would you suggest I/we do?
Since I’m not just sitting on my ass and complaining or just throwing out Boondock Saints quotes without having some substance underneath it, your reply doesn’t apply to me.
I know those of you outside of the US have dealt with some shit in your own countries, help us with some good suggestions please! Kicking us, especially those of us trying to make a difference, while we are down, isn’t helpful.
“Don’t beat us while we’re down” - the country literally disappearing people.
The world has a right to be angry at your domestic issue that has turned global over the past 10 years.
Oh, my most sincere apologies. I’ll just go grab that person that I personally disappeared and put her right back where she came from.
You’re missing the point, but it’s impossible to get through to someone who has no compassion for individuals, and would rather just hate someone because they’re adjacent to the problem. It’s attitudes like yours why the world is so fucked up right now. So quick to hate without realizing or caring who you’re dumping it on.
Don’t forget, either party, this is y’all too.
Amnesty International investigation concludes Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza
I’m not giving an excuse. But really understand our size. There are a shitload of horror news stories that are posted here, but most people haven’t seen it hit close to home.
They are all in America, yes. But these are news stories that take place in what is effectively Moscow when your in London. We are getting pissed off, but while these news articles make it seem like the guard rails are off, and they are, the majority of people still aren’t actually seeing this shit. It’s still mostly those that are actively following the news. I don’t think people are really, truly understanding that it’s in their house already.
OK so there’s the main task for those looking for purpose: get the word out. But since it’s early stage fascism, do it faster and harder. Start by taking collective responsibility for this shit despite the polarization.
More clues: eating together, especially preparing food, tends to open people up. Organize events.
