@UltraDane Why are you lying? Post the full clip. The question is about how they feel about the current diversity rules. They do not qualify for certain awards because of lack of diversity even though an Asian movie with only japanese or Chinese actors would qualify.
@Tysenberg So there is no threat of violence? If Greenland refuse to make a deal, you are okay with it and will just back off? A deal is never fair if it is only reached through a threat of violence by one of the parties.
I still haven’t seen a plausible reason for the U.S. to annex Greenland other than Trump wanting to personally add a “51st state.”
The U.S. already can build any military installations it wants there, and U.S. companies can freely invest in resource extraction.
MAGA influencers and Russian propaganda outlets are increasingly painting Europe as “unsafe.”
That is, of course, a lie.
On basic safety, Europe massively outperforms the United States, and Russia isn’t even close.
Some examples:
Homicide rate (per 100,000 people)
- United States: ~6.4
- Russia: ~6–7
- Europe (average): just over 2
Europe is about three times safer than the U.S. on murder rates, and far safer than Russia.
Mass shootings
Using the standard definition (4+ people shot, excluding the shooter):
- United States: hundreds every year (586 in 2024 alone)
- Europe: rare, often zero in most countries in a given year
The U.S. has a mass-shooting problem. Europe does not.
Prison population (per 100,000 people):
- United States: ~540+
- Russia: ~300
- European Union: ~111
The U.S. incarcerates about five times more people than the EU.
Russia incarcerates almost three times more than the EU.
Despite this, both still have higher violence levels than Europe.
Gun deaths (scale matters):
- United States: ~47,000 gun deaths per year
- Europe: a fraction of that, despite a larger population
To conclude, Europe is:
- Less violent
- Less lethal
- Less carceral
- More stable
The claim that Europe is “dangerous” (usually blamed on immigrants) compared to the U.S. or Russia is simply bullshit.
@NXT4EU No. This sounds very expensive and inefficient to elect across countries. Better to select representatives from each country who then appoint among themselves.
There appears to be some confusion about the historical and legal foundations of the relationship between the United States, Denmark, and Greenland.
A brief clarification of the relevant facts may therefore be useful.
Greenland was first settled by Norsemen in AD 985, when settlers from present-day Iceland - then part of the Norwegian cultural sphere - established communities in southern Greenland. At the time of their arrival, the areas in which they settled were uninhabited. It is therefore historically inaccurate to describe this settlement as “colonization” in the modern sense of the term.
During the Middle Ages, Greenland followed Norway into the personal union with Denmark in 1380. When Denmark and Norway separated in 1814 under the Treaty of Kiel, Greenland remained under Danish sovereignty.
The Norse settlements disappeared in the early fifteenth century. Danish presence in Greenland was re-established in 1721, initiating a continuous Danish administration that has lasted ever since.
The United States formally and unequivocally recognized Danish sovereignty over Greenland in 1917, in connection with Denmark’s sale of the Danish West Indies to the United States. As part of that agreement, the United States explicitly acknowledged Denmark’s full sovereignty over Greenland. This recognition has never been revoked, qualified, or legally contested.
During the Second World War, Denmark and the United States entered into close and pragmatic cooperation regarding Greenland’s defense. Following the German occupation of Denmark in 1940, the United States established a series of military installations in Greenland - the so-called Bluie bases - with Danish consent. This cooperation laid the foundation for the enduring strategic partnership between Denmark and the United States in the Arctic.
That partnership was formalized in the 1951 Defense Agreement, which grants the United States exceptionally broad rights to operate military installations in Greenland. Few allied countries have ever extended such latitude to a partner power. The agreement reflects a high degree of Danish trust and a shared understanding of Greenland’s strategic importance.
Certain adjustments were introduced with the Igaliku Agreement of 2004, which clarified consultation mechanisms and the role of Greenland’s Home Rule authorities. These modifications, however, did not fundamentally alter the wide operational freedom granted to the United States under the 1951 framework.
In short, there is no historical, legal, or strategic rationale for reverting to nineteenth-century concepts of unilateral territorial revision or for questioning the international legal status of territories belonging to allied states.
Such ideas are incompatible with both international law and the long-standing partnership between Denmark and the United States.
@DrewPavlou Nothing offensive here. He is calling out the hypocrisy fron the president in relation to the grief. And he never called the shooter MAGA. That claim is clearly wrong. He pointed out that MAGA were very focused on characterizing the shooter as non-MAGA, which again is correct.
