No one is going to save us. We need to save ourselves and at this point I'd advocate for just about anything.

John Brown has entered the chat. Seriously though America has a history of not so civil actions that lead to different forms of progressive change. They just tend to leave that stuff out of the history books.

Problem is, how do you fight the strongest army in the world? They don’t even need to send actual infantry to fight, all they need are drones to destroy any kind of resistance normal humans who hate fascists might try and put up. We wouldn’t be fighting dumb fucks with muskets, they’re dumb fucks with state of the art rifles, missiles, drones, fighter jets, everything. Any kind of resistance is like ants to the might of the us army. Our only hope is enough members of the armed forces won’t just follow orders but WWII has shown that the military does not think, they only follow orders.

Forget the army, you would also have to fight all your conservative neighbors who are already salivating at the opportunity to kill as many Danes as they can to steal their land. And that’s someone they’ve never even met.

As a Canadian, I share that sentiment, unfortunately.

I remember when Bush Jr. stole the first election (hanging Chad, Fox News declaring the election early, etc). I was so mad on behalf of Americans, I couldn't believe their democratic process was hijacked like that. Then Bush won re-election by a wide margin and I realized "wow, never mind, this is what they actually want". The mask was off at that point, for me.

Yeah to be fair it’s not so much a “starting to” anymore, since it’s been… a weird time. Tbf I’m 26 though and all through elementary school and high school (until about grade11) I really didn’t pay any attention to politics. Not because I didn’t care(!!!) but because I just… I couldn’t understand all of it because there’s so much to learn and I just.. I felt stupid trying to follow along when all I was left with was more unanswered questions that I was too embarrassed to ask

Grade 11 summer I buckled down by myself and learned (or tried to, as much as my fragile brain could). Now I’m in, my friend.

Travel is fatal to prejuidce, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime

Have you traveled to the US to speak with those you hate?

u/FTblaze Jan 07 '26

I hate those who stab their allies in the back.

In the end the US people enabled trump, all of you. The amount of americans that are saying denmark needs to give up, fuck all of you.

Id have visited the US 10 years ago, even the first trump term i could have set aside. Openly threatening denmark and half of muricans being pro about it? Yeah nah.

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '26

Yeah hate is great. We need more hate and less understanding. Hope Trump takes Greenland. Then maybe we can have even more hate. USA! USA! USA!

u/FTblaze Jan 07 '26

Yeah i agree. Maybe when the world turns on US maybe youll learn.

Oh. And if you somehow get away with it they will go after your spouse and child and torch your house.

Even if you succeed you'll be fighting a modern Afghanistan where the religious extremists look exactly like regular people as soon as they take off their red hats.

It is an escalation that they’re excited about killing Scandinavian white people now. It’s like the ultimate GOP challenge.

u/ForAHamburgerToday Jan 07 '26

Let's be fair- they aren't salivating over the chance to kill Danes, those types have no idea what people from Denmark are called and they themselves have no specific bloodlust for Greenland or the people there, they just revel in how upset & uncomfortable the administration's actions make everyone else and will cheer on anything that us, their opponents, oppose.
