please do it Trump, attacking an allied Western country will probably destroy NATO for good, and Amerikkka will finally be seen as the war mongering psychopath that it truly is, and not just by the Global South, but by the International Community (correct usage here).

What's the real reason these nazis are obsessed with Greenland?

Sea routes for trade are opening due to melting sea ice, means more direct trade with Russia and other northern hemisphere countries. Also minerals and lebensraum.

That means they know climate change is real and they're simply in favor of it.

Yep. There is a goulish genre of video on YouTube discussing how much fuel cost / time savings on logistics on trade from Europe to China, NA to Asia, etc if only the Polar Bears learn how to swim. The Polar Bears aren't actually discussed, though. The slight problem of rising sea levels drowning a substantial portion of the world seems to be ignored in these videos as well.

Rising sea levels means you can put warm water trade ports further inland, read a book

Its not that they favor it. Just that all solutions to fix it hurt profit. So nothing will be done.

Bigger share of the polar EEZ. Oil & natural resources, trade routes and russias polar fleet passes through the waters of greenland, military base (which it already is), Big Island that would be easy to control (and settle with white people).

Is Greenland going to be the Poland of 2025? Will it actually set off a world war where Europe attacks the US for attacking a "white" country?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 week ago

Greenland is more like a colonial territory of the Danish crown and is mostly indigenous. I really doubt they'll do much to protect the locals. You know, considering the eugenics program they've been conducting there.

Europe attacks the US

doubt They'd probably just let it happen and do nothing while writing angry letters of condemnation.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

If they were willing to appease Hitler they're not going to do anything to stop Trump

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

they'll probably attack russia in reaction

can a man without object permanence really rule out anything?

An intra-NATO conflict between Europe and the US would actually be so damn funny. Would destroy NATO and probably the US and Europe as well.

Although, Europe's governments will just hand the land over peacefully without a war. There's no way they'd actually ever directly stand up to the US.

European here - im not going to war over some fucking icey rock. Please take it.

Man, this stuff is just exhausting. Obviously evil and causing harm to human lives, but it's simultaneously dumb as all hell.
