I'm getting the vibe that rich people (in the north) actually wanted global warming all along
Boycott US
Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

People laughed at the Donner Superman portrayal of Lex Luthor who is obsessed with real estate, but maybe the writers and director had the foresight to know where we were heading:
"He said, 'Son, stocks may rise and fall, utilities and transportation systems may collapse. People are no damn good, but they will always need land and they'll pay through the nose to get it!'" ~ Lex Luthor, Superman (1978) (who proceeded to launch two nukes to get his precious land)
"'You can print money, manufacture diamonds and people are a dime a dozen, but people will always need land.' It's the one thing we aren't making anymore." ~ Lex Luthor, Superman Returns (2006) (who then proceeded to create his own island that threatened the geophysical existence of the continental U.S.)
And now here we are, with a poorly drawn war Presichump (or chimp) wannabe who is a failed real estate mogul. Aside from the increased navigational access, critical minerals and continental defense, he wants to be there first to plant his business flag, because he knows rich people will need somewhere else to go when the other places are too hot, flooded, the local population is worked to death, inhospitable, etc. Until they build the Elysium, or get to Mars, they're stuck here with us.
Danish foreign minister trying to explain what JD Vance and Trump dont seem to know/Understand. USA has free access to build military bases in Greenland already. They dont need to own it to establish defence systems there. Instead, they have closed 16 bases and give from 10000 soldiers to 200.
That would be a legitimate argument if it really was about securing the arctic regions and not imperialistic megalomania.
Proving once again USA will start another war, it's just a matter of time.
And never forget that most Americans either voted for this or simply didn't care.
As Denmark is already in NATO there is no more protection the US could offer Greenland than they already do
