There may be another reason trump is trying to buy Greenland. Dryden Brown, the founder of the network state Praxis, had tried to purchase Greenland in 2023 and they refused. I read he had appealed to trump to try to get the purchase done. Brown has now gone into hate rants against the LBGTQ community and several people have left the community including a woman from Germany I had chatted with that had been part of the Praxis community. She started messaging me after I mentioned Praxis in a post I made. She has since left the community after saying that the entire website was now filled with Nazi comments.

Support an independent Greenland! Every Greenlander must be "radicalized" for an independent Greenland as a sovereign nation! Their minerals can do for them what oil did for the Arabs. If they can avoid being sucked in by greedy corporations and the corrupt politicians they hire, in fifty years they will become the wealthiest people in the world, and they deserve it!!

Cold as shit? If anyone knew the true temperature of fresh shit smeared over the face, I'd think it would be Couchfucker.

And I don't believe it would be cold.

winning hearts and minds, by patting the polar bears on the head.

The motivation must be the military one. Mining is not dependent on territorial rights, and is something that the Danish government and/or private companies have failed at repeatedly. I'm not saying that it is not likely that profitable mining can be done in the future, as different materials become more valuable, but which government is green-lighting the projects hardly makes a difference.

When you said PayPal, I was sure it was Peter Thiel. But is Greenland the “bottom” or the “top” of the spinning globe?

Ta, Marcie. I love that song.

Remember, at every protest anywhere, whether organized like 50501, No Kings, and May Day or disorganized or even spontaneous, begin the following chant, and continue until everyone is saying, "Epstein. Epstein! Epstein!! Epstein!!!" like the shouting of "Goldberg" during 1984's Two Minutes' Hate. Ep stein EP stein etc. etc.

Muskie's grandfather was in the Technate which is partly why his kids have strong password names.

The campaign to influence the hearts and minds of Greenland reminded me of this book I recently read: https://a.co/d/5B5OU4j

I'd tell him that they'd only negotiate in Danish, no translators allowed, and no one but him allowed from the US.

"Greenland" is the oddest way of spelling "Epstein" yet.

"one of Dear Leader’s first promises as President of the US of A, to grab the independent Danish territory of Greenland by its fishy pussy and own it, “one way or the other,” by buying it or even through military force"

For someone feeling worthy and is demanding a Nobel Peace Prize, threatening armed force to steal another country's territory, militarizing American cities (see sidebar below), dropping bunker buster bombs on Iran, supporting ethnic cleansing in Gaza, and proclaiming an aggressor nation unlawfully attacking a sovereign nation deserves the land they have stolen are all surefire ways that the Fulvous Fuckwad can guarantee he wins, yes? (An abridged list, obvi.)

(Sidebar: "Speaker Mike Johnson [R- Howz Bayou, LA] on Monday said President Trump [sic] deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for his takeover of the Washington, D.C., police force after preliminary data showed a lack of reported killings in the city over 11 days.

“There are MANY reasons why President Trump [sic] deserves the Nobel Peace Prize – but 11 straight days with ZERO murders in Washington, D.C. might top the list,” https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5469047-trump-nobel-peace-prize-mike-johnson/

Should the impossible happen and the Pyrite Pustule get the Peace Prize, MAGA Mike deserves the Nobel Prize in Sycophantic Asskissing, despite a shitload of other contenders.)

-----

"However, US President Trump [sic] has said several times he wants to annex Greenland, a semi-autonomous part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and Vice-President JD Vance has accused Copenhagen of underinvesting in the territory." (from the link to the BBC)

* While I realize that he may think so, the Deep Saffron Dipstick can't always get his way. In fact, most of his wet dreams of the future are well beyond the pale.

* I want my country back, but that's as likely to occur as Greenland preferring an illiberal dictatorship where freedom is going down the toilet rather than Denmark.

* By what right does the Hillbilly have to decide if another country has "underinvesting in the territory[?]" Especially given that the complaint has not been echoed by Greenlanders. The Hillbilly, the Carrot Chancre, and pretty much everyone within the regime are trying out for the lead in "The Ugly American."

"The US president said this year he would not rule out seizing it by force." ibid

Please see above re the Halloween Orange Hemorrhoid doing everything he can to win the Peace Prize.

Trump hates wind-farms because, supposedly, they kill birds. You know the biggest killer of birds? Skyscraper buildings, like those Trump builds!!!!

Chump hates wind-farms because they put one up off the coast of his Scottish golf course and told him to go fuck himself when he sued to stop it and pulled the standard bullshit that always works over here.

I saw this photo of a Scottish woman delivering the judicial decision to him at his golf course. Terse. A four-word decision.
