Why did they let them get off the plane.

It's not hard, they are not welcome and therefore must not leave the Airside area and leave immediately. That's how it works for EVERBODY, why does the couch fucker get a free pass?

EU countries need to start making plans to remove us bases by force and destroy any US forces if necessary.

Why do Americans always think in violence. The American people put a bunch of nazis into power, now you want Europe to fix it with a full out war. It's like the US is full of toddlers. Idiocracy was a meant as a comedy, not a manual.

How have fascists typically been successfully handled by the international community in the past?

I am not American. I don't want Europe to try and 'fix' the US, my suggestions are merely for the EU to avoid being taken over by the US.

Since the US has put a bunch of nazis into power it's possible it will come to violence or threats of violence. It's better to be prepared. It's also better to act first if you know violence is inevitable.Or you could just acquiesce to any demand when threatened. Tariffs, give your natural resources to US companies, ban gays, ban 'communism' etc.

I'd say the people of Greenland are way safer under Denmark than the US for one simple reason, public healthcare.

And other public safety nets to prevent people dying.

Danish kids are also usually not being shot at at school

Maybe two reasons: They don't have psychotic, chaos-breeding fascists running their country.

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago

That's just like... You're opinion, man.

Denmark isn't doing enough to keep Greenland safe?

First of all, is there some conflict there that I'm not aware of?

Second of all, we have a goddamn US military base there. Are the troops behind you not doing enough to keep it safe?

I am so sick of the persistent invention of bad ideas they're trying to make real. It's like they think of they can say whatever they want often enough and enough people will hear it, then suddenly it's a real fact.

Stop trying to make Fetch happen, Vance. It's never going to happen.

It worked for Trump. Twice!

I don't know if you actually believe that repeating a lie does not increase the number of people who believe it or if you're saying you don't think it should work that way. Either way, I think the state of this country proves pretty decisively that it absolutely does work that way.

The “Big Lie.” Even Hitler was “open” about it - in positing that the “Big Lie” was Jews being responsible for Germany’s failure in WW1, he was asking his audience to accept a true “Big Lie.”

Allegiance to outright falsehood is about a marker of being of the right ideology. Political parties have always been like football teams to some of these folks - it’s about having the correct tribal markers and spouting the slogan. Words aren’t really supposed to mean anything - what they are communicating to everyone is “we want to invade Greenland.” They are signaling to their audience and just know that they can say whatever they want, while we scramble to respond to the words and not the meaning.

This image is proof that it was a fantastic idea from the citizens of Nuuk to not allow the Vances in their town. They’d have been abused for an image like this. This is the only reason why Vance wanted to visit Greenland.

So now they’re using their soldiers as backdrop to pretend they’re Greenlanders.

To be fair, they did allow entry to the vice president of a hostile foreign power.
