Summary
Germany and France criticized U.S. President-elect Donald Trump after he refused to rule out military or economic actions to acquire Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory and part of the EU and NATO.
Germany stressed borders must not be changed by force, citing the UN Charter, while France warned against threats to EU sovereignty.
Trump defended his position on national security grounds, proposing tariffs on Denmark if it resists.
Denmark and Greenland rejected the idea, with Greenland’s leader reiterating its desire for independence, not U.S. annexation.
Hey, Americans, if your government starts invading Panama, Greenland, Canada, etc, what are you going to do about it?
Swallow whatever propaganda is set in front of them like they always fucking do, the credulous numptys.
Post memes on the internet.
They’ll fall in line…
It’s a good thing that they have all those guns to fight tyranny with.
Hey, they’ll fight whomever the Great Leader tells them is the tyrant!
(I believe the tyrant is currently trans people, poor immigrants, independent women and non-assholes.)
Protest. But we are owned by corporations and the wealthy. So I doubt it will do much.
Just need 3.5% of the population

I take issue with comparing the success rate of violent revolutions to non-violent ones. I think that violent revolutions happen when non-violent revolutions are impossible or unfeasible. The fact that they have less success doesn’t mean much when trying to do a non-violent revolution would likely have no chance of success.
Historical circumstances will vary and so no single strategy is better for all cases.
I think one of the major issues we have is we are so spread out. It’s not like a majority of us can drive a few hours and get to DC to protest. It’s a days drive from where I am at.
Our politicians don’t feel the pressure they should.
Sit it out in protest?
