    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).

    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?

      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.

      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.

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