    I still refuse to understand how the hell Pituffik exists.

    The US is literally threatening to take territory of one of its own allies by force. I am absolutely amazed that this wasn’t interpreted as a declaration of war itself. The first thing Denmark should have done is demanded the closure of that base, expelling US diplomats, and telling Vance and his convoy to go fuck themselves.

    And if you want to go see just how much of an alternate reality the MAGA crowd lives in, go to a conservative subreddit. They are literally using the Russian playbook and claiming that citizens of Greenland want to be a part of the US and are welcoming this with open arms while discussing news reports of protests with people holding signs saying ‘Yankees Go Home’.

    And no, it’s not because Greenland really hates New York baseball teams. They literally couldn’t find a single family willing to host the VP and his family for a propaganda video and had to cut the trip due to the reaction, and they’re painting this as a win.

    They are literally doing to Greenland what Russia does to Ukraine in order to justify forced annexation.
