    Kinda incredible how quickly he pivoted from, “We’re gonna stop spending billions on all these wars,” to, “Fuck it, I feel like invading Greenland.”

        It’s fucking insane. Even MAGAs didn’t vote for this. He just suddenly started talking about taking over Greenland and making Canada a state between the election and the inauguration, and the billionaires are just trying to extract whatever wealth they can out of our government before grandpa drives the car into a ditch.

          This behavior was always the assumption. Trump voters know it, and the ones down here are still flyin them flags. These lead brained fucks just dont care no more. real pity havin to watch family loose their better selfs to this fascist nonsense. These same fuckers think themselfs some harolds of freedom, dispite chearing on the deportation of g-d fearn Americans based on ethnicity. Real shame to see.

          aint shits been changed round here in 200 years it seems.

        To be fair even on a globe Greenland is still massive. Just not quite as bad on Mercator.

          It is also mostly ice. The entirety of the central Greenland is covered by 1.6km to 3.7km thick ice.

          Settlements are around the coast, as Greenland has about 100km roads in total, no railroads and no inland water.
