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.

    Anyone who didn’t vote is especially responsible.

      Or felons or disenfranchised for some reason it another.

      Chill, some people have reasons and maybe they aren’t all worse then actual fascists. I’d say likely most aren’t but dehumanization is also fun though I guess.

        We all knew where this was going.

        Those who didn’t vote based on some sort of moral principle were dumb enough to not realize they would make whatever those issues were 1000 times worse.

        Hope they’re happy with people being disappeared off the streets.

          Sure.

          Yeah that doesn’t magically make them not disenfranchised felons, voting would just be committing a fairly serious crime.

          That’s fucked up Nazi shit bud.

            Oh geez, you can act like that’s what I’m saying, but it’s not.

            Nice try though? Whatever it takes to make you feel less bad about your decisions.

              It’s literally what you said and doubled down on bud.

              Ed: I didn’t choose to be a felon nor in fact do most people but you don’t seem to even be reading what I’m saying because you’re still assuming it’s a choice. You’re a bigot.

          I already said there are reasons people couldn’t vote that are beyond their control like felon disenfranchisement.

          You understand reasons exist beyond ideological ones correct?

          They didn’t add any nuance and they doubled down, why would I think more or less than what is said.

          Ed: >Anyone who didn’t vote is especially responsible.

          Fucking dumbasses that they are.

          Where’s the exception, where’s the nuance? Oh then maybe be like oh shit sorry I could be more clear, instead of “that’s not what I said” which is factually incorrect.

            The irony of someone asking where the nuance is and immediately diving for the worst possible interpretation is truly amazing 😂😂😂

            I can only assume you didn’t vote and feel guilty due to your need to deflect.

              That’s not irony boss.

              Ed: also we’ve went over this already but you’re either too dumb to remember or conveniently forgetting. I’m a disenfranchised voter and you’re just a bigot.

              “yeah man where is the nuance, fucking dumbass.”

              You’re really not digging yourself out of the bigoted asshole rut you’ve dug yourself.

      Anyone who sits on their ass at this news is complicit. We are reaching the points where not standing up is in fact approval for the regime and their actions

        If you didn’t vote, you’re a fucking idiot who doesn’t understand externalities.

                  Like I said you can’t win the argument so you default to bullying like a child or an idiot, you choose.
