So, Trump wants Greenland, and he is using threats and coercion to get it from Denmark.
The “new global normal” of mandating and coercing democratic citizens is rapidly extended to little democratic countries that are officially NATO allies.
Forced American regime changes, formerly reserved for non-Western countries and often manufactured by the CIA, are now openly and swiftly executed through press conferences.
The Denmark prime minister, which I have filed away as “Globalist” in my rapidly eroding memory, is on board with this. (I forgot the exact reason why I filed her away as a Globalist puppet, so please correct me if I am wrong)
Instead of saying to Trump, “Fuck off, you imperialistic pig” and “keep your dirty hands off our country”, she does the diplomatic talk, saying: “We welcome American interest” and “it is totally up to the Greenland’s people” to decide their fate.
As if “the people of a country” ever decided their fate.
It is the elites and their sophisticated brainwashing, nudging and backroom deals that determine the fate of the people.
What she is really saying is: “We are not outraged. We will not defend Greenland. We leave it up to the 45,000 people of Greenland to decide what they want.”
And with that, just like that, she sold Greenland to the USA.
What will happen is a thing officially called a “referendum” in which more than half of the Greenland people will “vote” against staying with Denmark and becoming Americans in exchange for some considerable financial advantages offered openly or secretly.
Any silly loyalists will be taken care of by the CIA in one way or another and either discredited, smeared, bought or otherwise removed.
This will be a walk in the park for the CIA pros compared to regime changes in Iraq, Honduras, Nicaragua, and many other countries.
And it is already a fact: “The Greenlanders lover the US”, Trump’s son tells us. “And the Danish press got it all upside down”, he assures us. “All FAKE NEWS”.
Fake news?
Fake news?
Where did I hear that before? Oh, my memory……It sounds somehow familiar, but I can’t remember who and how it was used before.
Do you want to reuse that and expect anyone to fall for it again?
With all that money, couldn’t you come up with a new catchy concept to convince your sharp followers that everything except Trump is fake?
Or did you do a quick secret survey amongst the MAGA crowd and find out it still works perfectly?
“Fake news” once again - un-fucking-believable.
The most straightforward way would be to offer a million dollars to the first 25,000 Greenlanders who pledge to vote for the USA, with the rest getting nothing. The 25,000 would sign up within a few hours.
There is your referendum in the “New Normal American Reich”.
Therefore, if you like to gamble and are an EU citizen, you can play the Greenland Lottery now.
MOVE TO GREENLAND NOW and become an official Greenlander. You could end up with quite some money and American citizenship.
I wonder what Denmark will gain from this. From a purely opportunistic, pragmatic, and materialistic point of view, selling Greenland to the US is the least complicated response.
That’s how most people deal with big bullies. You appease them quickly, give them what they want and hope they will leave you alone.
I think, if my eroding memory serves me right, that’s what also happened in 1939 when Hitler decided to get all that lost “Vaterland” from WW I back, like half of Poland.
He didn’t ask.
He bullied his way in with its superior military power and, while there, decided to take all of Poland just like that.
And the British, French, Russian and Americans let him do it without making a big fuss, maybe hoping bully Hitler would stop after that and leave them alone. The rest is history, as they say.
And they - whoever “they” are - also say that we are meant to repeat history over and over again unless we learn from past mistakes.
While Denmark quickly rolled over, offering its throat and belly to the big orange lion, France took it upon itself to lead Europe into a kind of resistance.
Under France's leadership, the EU tries to mount a half-hearted outrage that is watered down in the globalist press with “legal considerations” and “this-is-not-the-first-time” arguments. It is a war of words only because I don’t think Europe has any military or economic power against the US.
NATO fighting NATO? It is a bizarre situation, to say the least.
But what about public opinion?
I did a five-person male Australian “pub test” last night at a party, and all two Australians and three Kiwis living in Australia thought Trump was mad. What differed was how serious they took the whole affair. It ranged from “This is just a bluff and the typical Trump shitshow for attention and headlines” to “he has gone totally mad and you better start digging your bunker now.”
I also tested the water of mostly American Substack opinions by planting some provocative comments and Notes comparing Trump’s imperialistic move with Hitler’s move to annex foreign, sovereign land he wanted.
While some expressed concerns, the majority replied that the comparison with Hitler is wrong and supported this by sophisticated reasonings:
replied to your note14h
Because western expansion and manifest destiny were totally Hitler. You dumb fuck.
replied to your note17h
Hitler was a 5’7 manlet.
restacked your note1d
All this has basically been America’s for 202 fucking years. God dude. Read a fucking book.
replied to your note1d
“You know who else drank water? Hitler!” Ass note.
replied to your note1d
You fucking retard.
You lefties are so predictable: Don’t understand Trump’s logic regarding Greenland? Panama? He must be Hitler!!
restacked your note1d
It’s nothing to do with liebensraum dumbfuck. The USA has plenty of that. Greenland is about mining, oil and control of the arctic sea-lanes. Panama is to keep China from encroaching even further into Central America (as they are currently doing in their sneaky Chinee way) — and why not call it the Gulf of America? Mexico is part of the Americas after all.
Remember - North, Central and South America?
I love the work “liebensraum”, - meaning “Love-Space”. I think Peebo meant “Lebensraum”, meaning “Living-Space”.
You have to give it to Trumpy - he knows his base and is “one” with them.
In summary: “Nothing to see here, and anyone thinking otherwise is obviously a total retard and fuckwit.” I can see the depths and simplicity of that reasoning.
It's funny how totalitarian mass movements consistently collect about 30% of the angry and fanatic part of the population and dumb them down rapidly.
These guys get a full-blown hard-on fantasizing about this new imperialistic idea of the “New American Reich” that will soon - Phase I - be stretching from Guatemala to Greenland.
The “Great” in MAGA just got a new meaning.
On the other hand, I like that the USA finally stopped pretending to be altruistic goodie-goodies for world peace and freedom (defending the “Free world” everywhere where oil or minerals are found)), non-imperialistic, democratic and a friend of the world.
They must have realized that, finally, by 2025, the whole fucking globe realized 30 years ago what the USA was doing all along, and those who played along only did so because they profited from it.
So off comes the mask and the true imperialistic, exploitive, uber-capitalistic, true nature of the forever ruling USA elites of less than a million with an over-proportional ratio of Jews among them, those elites finally showing their true faces.
That’s refreshing. I like that.
So, what to make about all this? What is the master plan? What is the magic 5-
D Chess move here? Who is really behind this?
I don’t care anymore and won’t waste my time guessing around.
Whoever is behind this is the continuation of what has been going on for the past five years openly and for decades more hidden.
Sow division
Sow confusion
Divide and Conquer
Sow Fearporn
I decided not to comply this time around. I refuse to panic or get worried. What is the point? If the Danish PM is cool about this, who am I to find fault?
I sit this one out and enjoy my life instead.
I might even consider moving to Greenland for a while. I have an EU passport.
On second thought, too fucking cold for me.
I was born too late to be part of the “German Reich”, and it didn’t last 1000 years as promised, only about 12. Totalitarian systems take care of themselves very quickly - their followers are just too clever for their own good, it seems.
It is probably too exhausting to keep that fanatic erection up for years.
I am currently safe in Australia from Trumplers’ global “New American Reich” expansion plans. And the relationship between the USA and Australia is very close and friendly, a bit like Nazi Germany and Nazi Austria used to be. Like then, any annexation of “minreal rich” Australia into the American Reich will be mutually agreed on and celebrated as “coming home” into the big Anglo-neo-fascist family.
It won’t change much for us in Australia. We are already ruled by “totalitarian autocratic bureaucrats” (Quote: Senator Rennick), so we will hardly feel the difference.
We might have to learn a new national hymn. (I wonder if the first paragraph of the original German hymn, currently outlawed, will be “bought” by Trumpler soon to be ready for Phase III of the Great American Expansion - “bring home the lost European Colonies.”
But one step at a time.
Good luck in the Greenland Lottery.

I cannot take credit for the below, but as a geopolitical analysis. I think that it’s critical analysis is both logical and accurate.
——————
On American expansionism.
–
The incoming administration seems to have a more realistic image of the state of American hegemonial decline and wants to take proactive steps to try to counteract and reverse it, breathing new life into the American Global Empire.
–
In this context, it makes perfect sense for the US to increase pressure on its vassals. I am not using the term in a pejorative sense. The US does not have “allies” in the traditional meaning of the word. It has vassals with different levels of feudal obligations and elite integration, and different tasks. Extracting more value from vassals — whether through tariffs, increased NATO budgets, meddling in local politics or potential territorial concessions — is an absolutely logical step in cementing and renewing America’s position as overlord of its sphere.
–
There are three ways America’s European vassals can react to this: look for protection outside of the sphere, try to make themselves more useful/necessary & advance integration, or take it on the face. Were we in, I don’t know, the 19th century, Denmark would just ask Russia for military support in Greenland in exchange for mild economic concessions and never worry again. As it is, the Royal Danish Army does not have any artillery anymore because they gave it all away for the purpose of firing cluster ammunition at Russian children in Donetsk. They did not receive anything in return for that and it did not help any Danish purpose. They cannot defend themselves if push comes to shove and they can’t ask anybody to help because most of their fellow vassals have done the same. The most likely option is that they’ll just take it on the face. Not just for pragmatic reasons, but also because they genuinely enjoy being dommed geopolitically.
–
America has no obligation to treat its vassals better. I’ve seen Danish people complain on here about supporting the US after 9/11, participating in the American wars in the Middle East, etc. That’s ridiculous. You know how a colony is rewarded for sending troops to its overlord’s wars? It doesn’t get beaten. That’s the reward for a lackey. Any person who takes any of the NATO democracy liberalism pilpul seriously is just not a serious person, it was never real, it was always just voluntary submission to be absolved from existing in History.
–
The world that existed in 1991-2022 does not exist anymore. It’s not coming back. You can just invade your neighbor. You can just fire missiles at international shipping lanes. You can just threaten to annex members of your military alliance. “You can just do things”, as the techbros like to say. The mirage of a post-historical order that only has to be policed from time to time but is never seriously challenged has disappeared. What did you think canceling the End of History meant? Vibes? Papers? Essays? It’s not pleasant to be suddenly confronted with all of the above. It’s not pleasant to have to admit to yourself that your existence was a coddled theme park that is existentially dependent on the relative position of someone else and how he feels about that relative position. America’s vassals WILL have to confront this state of things and make hard decisions about their future. This means reckoning with their geopolitical impotence and either embracing dependency with open eyes or seeking pathways to autonomy that will inevitably involve risk, sacrifice, and a recalibration of their national priorities.
–
The era of coasting on borrowed security and ideological rhetoric is over. What lies ahead is a world where historical agency must be reclaimed or forever relinquished, and for many, the question may not be whether they are ready to make that leap, but whether they even remember how. America has now understood this — and is mentally preparing to switch back to the cold logic that comes with actual History. The times, they are a-changin’.
Cool article man.
George Washington's vision for the nation was that the United States would be the entire continent. The I'm not sure if they forsaw planes and space travel, but it was very advantageous to have an ocean between your land and and adversary that wants to take you over.
Most policy these days is executed by press conference and releases. They're great at getting reactions, causing anger, and directing people's behavior. The majority of people don't verify, and the few that do are not believed nor listened to by the majority, and public opinion rules.
Slavery was outlawed in 1788 when the states ratified the Constitution, but it took an executive order, a war, and the 13th amendment because of public opinion.
For example, the federal government's income tax revenue is run by press release. All the information is there, in the written law, if you look, but few ever go through the door.
>As if “the people of a country” ever decided their fate.
Yup. Almost never do. As Steve Jobs said, People don't know what they want, you just go do it. Many people during the revolution wanted to remain loyal subjects of the King. Even Ben Franklin's son joined the fighting on the British side.
Hitler's speeches and appeals to his people sound very similar in substance to that which Trump used to get elected. Listening to Hitler's speeches is very eye-opening. Our situations are similar. Both countries were ravaged by horrible elite decision making, and many today, like in Germany, feel no hope for a better future. There's nothing new under the sun, the same methods used for evil can also be used for good. That which you do for good can be used for evil. Lincoln freed the slaves, yet set the legal foundation for making everyone slaves.
>[Trump] knows his base and is “one” with them.
His goal was to get elected. He used deception, incomplete truths, lying by omission, and other often-used political tactics to accomplish the goal. Being truthful and educating people does not win elections in our culture. It upset me, but the choice was made for me. A few of my friends who knew what was really going on got really upset with the way Trump was campaigning. A lot of Republicans are pro-globalist but they don't understand why.
Like you say,
>I don’t care anymore and won’t waste my time guessing around.
Focusing on local politics is more productive. I can actually have an impact locally.
