Rugian
rank | Mon Jan 19 14:37:19 I've been thinking, the Danes should be establishing a negotiating position that they are willing to sell Greenland to the US...in exchange for the US giving Denmark the entire Eastern Seaboard. A steep trade perhaps, but it is necesssary for Denmark's national security needs. In this Neo-Danish Empire, English will be banned after a five-year transition period. Voting rights will be granted after a 70-year period in which the state has the opportunity to thoroughly instill Danish values into the children of the new citizenry. The Second Amendment would of course be abolished. Mar-a-Lago will be turned into a housing development for Greenland emigres. If Denmark had any balls, this kind of satirical proposal would be a pointed jab at the ridiculousness of Trump's demands. But of course, the Danes have no balls. |

Pillz
rank | Mon Jan 19 14:49:55 The absurdity of thinking it constitutes a point jab lol That is like a 130lbs antifa soyboi telling an ICE agent if he pepper sprays him he gets to fuck his wife. No basis or bearing in reality and immediately dismissed - ideally with prejudice. |

Rugian
rank | Mon Jan 19 14:59:09 Pillz The US demand that Denmark surrender Greenland is absurd. Land grabs of this nature do not (normally) happen in the modern international order, much less among nominal allies. Really, the only thing that is justifying Trump's demands is Europe's pathetically weak response to them. Trump may in fact have a point - if Europe's response to a threatened military invasion of its territory is to deploy 30-odd soldiers (some of whom have already been recalled home) and *maybe* cancel a pending trade deal, then they in fact cannot be trusted to stand up against future Russian or Chinese aggression. Europe needs to demonstrate that it has the stones to stand up for itself and NATO when it matters. So far it has wholly failed to do that. |
|
Rugian
rank | Mon Jan 19 15:02:38 If any country ever demanded that the US surrender one of our states to them, our response would be a derisive "go fuck yourself." Followed possibly by bombings. The very idea would be treated as laughably stupid. Europe is not acting like it's laughably stupid that we demand to have Denmark. That's a problem in and of itself. |

Seb
rank | Mon Jan 19 15:17:36 Rugian: Your failure to speak and interpret European responses is your own problem. They treat the threat as deadly serious, not laughable. But they are very clear and couldn't be more clear: it's not going to happen. If the US public, political class and media think it's a big joke and not worth reigning in, they are about to find out the consequence of their own lack of seriousness. |

Pillz
rank | Mon Jan 19 15:19:23 "The US demand that Denmark surrender Greenland is absurd. Land grabs of this nature do not (normally) happen in the modern international order, much less among nominal allies." 'Modern International Order' is just the enforcement of world order under American Hegemony. 'American Hegemony' being key to understanding why America gets to decide when it's enforced or not. 'Allies' is also a politically correct term you're applying in a contextually inappropriate manner. Europe (both the EU and Denmark specifically) are not 'allies', they're vassals. Your stupid attempts to moralize and intellectualize the situation to fit your arbitrary modern perspective don't matter. "Trump may in fact have a point - if Europe's response to a threatened military invasion of its territory is to deploy 30-odd soldiers (some of whom have already been recalled home) and *maybe* cancel a pending trade deal, then they in fact cannot be trusted to stand up against future Russian or Chinese aggression.' Ty for proving the point I just brought up, as the idea Russia is a threat to Europe is unfounded, and yes, ensuring European wealth and resources belong to America are imperative - China can not be allowed to win a greater foothold in Europe than it already has - and Europe is definitely retarded enough to sell their souls to the east. "Europe needs to demonstrate that it has the stones to stand up for itself and NATO when it matters. So far it has wholly failed to do that." Yes and we need a morbidly obese female-to-male midget to win worlds strongest man to prove women are just as capable as men are??? |

Rugian
rank | Mon Jan 19 15:45:26 Seb Incorrect. Europe's failure to adequately convey their position in language that the other side can understand (assuming that is indeed their position, which is not a given) is their problem. The headlines from the continent are frankly mind-boggling. "We want to avoid escalation if possible," "We want to find a diplomatic solution," etc. This mealy-mouthed weaksauce is not the language of a continent that is outraged that its territorial integrity has been threatened by an outside power. This is the language of a group setting an opening negotiating position for future discussions in which they are prepared to ultimately offer concessions in the interest of a settlement. I guarantee you that none of these "oh, gee, we find it lamentable that the US are being meanies to Denmark" statements are convincing the White House that they can't get exactly what they want as long as they continue playing hardball. |

What do you want us to do exactly? Decapitate the US ambassadors to our countries on live TV and FedEx their severed heads to the white house? You elected this fucker, not us. If you attack an Ally, NATO (and US power projection info Africa and the middle east) is over. Your Sigint is over. Your tech industry is over. It will be hell to pay. That's been said. If the only way that cuts through is when all hell breaks loose, because Americans are too degenerate to understand words, then that's what's going to happen. But Europe isn't going to make the first move. It will respond. |

Your tech industry is over." You're wrong Seb, because Europe has very limited capability to project force themselves and has overlapping interests with the US in Africa and the Middle East. Europe would be cutting off it's nose to spite it's face. There's also the issue of colonies that Europe can't defend. Much of Europe will get very angry and hate Americans, and then do what Europe always does ... which is try to make the best deal it can. - |

So whether Trump gets Greenland or Canada or not, in the next 12 years, Greenland, Canada, whatever the fuck else Trump opens his mouth about, America is getting. |

Nationalists and nationalists and what they see is an overbearing America shitting on our country for defending an ally. So now America is the enemy, the threat. And if they helped the Argentinians over the Falklands, well put it this way, when I see far right thugs in their thirties they still talk about the Falklands like boomers talk about WW2. So yeah, absolutely, that's what would happen. And not just beating up. |

" and has overlapping interests with the US in Africa and the Middle East." Our interests are to see America bleed itself dry fighting other enemies, and then we asset strip the corpses. Think Iran Iraq war. Or the US after ww1 and 2. And in any case, just like your interests aren't to fuck with Greenland, that won't matter. It will be politically impossible to work with the US. |

Pillz
rank | Tue Jan 20 19:44:25 You're inability to parse and contextualize my thoughts or beliefs on the matter isn't my problem seb. It is your problem that you can't seem to recognize that a strong independent Europe is incompatible with your ideology and the solution is to embrace the parties, individuals, and rhetoric you categorize as wrong-think and unacceptable. I've preached for a nationalist resurgence (and insurrection) in Europe for over a decade now. If that came to pass as a result of Greenland, I wouldn't oppose it. You would. But the reality is that Europe is dependent on America, and is not in any position to fight it, and a schizophrenic half baked alliance with the 'far-right' and 'nationalists' isn't going to change the reality of the Greenland situation. It is, however, going to finally open up the flood gates to your (re: literally you, personally, as well as your ideological ilk) demise and legitimize the European right. But your smooth brain, which is limited to purely two dimensional thinking, isn't equipped to see the consequences of resistance to America. Nor is it equipped to see the consequences of aquesseance - is is going to be a rise in support for nationalism. Of course in the first scenario (half baked schizophrenic alliance) where you (justly) legitimatize the right, at least there is a transition where you can repent. In the second, you merely accelerate the increasingly hostile political climate until something violent (and just) occurs. At this point you (and your ideological ilk) are not going to be able to transition into a role of penetence. You will be lynched. And anyways, france can't even move an army across the continent for an exercise effectively. The idea that you'd be able to mount any meaningful defense of an island is just purely insane and has no basis or bearing in reality. But you'll continue to live in your retarded little communist thought bubble, convulsing violently as you slowly come to the realization that Europe gamed itself into a position of failure. |

Or is referring people to euthanasia because treatment can't be secured because of a shortage of doctors a success in your eyes? At least if you die because you can't pay, that's on you. Being told they would rather kill you than schedule treatment in another province is purely a failing of bureaucracy though. |

Seb
rank | Tue Jan 20 20:31:55 Pillz: It's funny, even as you blather about how I need to align with the far right of Europe, they are adopting exactly the position you say I'm wrong about: Stronger integration through the EU structures, and greater leveraging of the EUs collective economic heft, and disengaging and minimising dependency on the US. I'd oppose those parties, because like you they are absolute fucking idiots, and their damascene conversion to European integration does not come with a recognition that their obsession with race is ridiculous nonsense. But you've missed the point entirely. You don't need to ally with these idiots if they agree with the central thrust. You wrap yourself with the flag and steal the policies they agree with and you win the election on pursuing integration, rearmament and economic disengagement with the US. The more MAGA threatens Europe the less salient other issues become, and the more fascists become discredited by association. They get stuck in a political trap: if they push what's salient they endorse the mainstream positions. If they oppose it, they are unpatriotic which is toxic to their brand. And if they keep banging on about immigrants, they look out of touch and 5th columnists for Trump & co. "But the reality is that Europe is dependent on America" No, it really isn't. It's the other way around. The US relies on constant capital inflows, the majority of which comes from Europe, to sustain itself. The main driver of this inflow is the supposed security of US treasuries. The reality is that joint European borrowing could both cripple the US ability to sustain its economic imbalance while allowing the EU to finance rearmament and anything else it wants to. Meanwhile, there's an annual flow of in excess of 200bn USD per year from Europe in digital and tech services. A very large fraction of this is essentially royalties for use of cloud infrastructure physically based in Europe. A large portion of this fully comoditised and could easily be "onshored" (China successfully did so in a few years), even without just LOLing and international patent law and telling the US to get fucked (cf the US industrial revolution) which honestly I think ought to be an option. (*including using regulatory levers to drive sovereign capacity, either through tech transfer or progressive exclusion of foreign competitors from elements of the value chain, AfD etc. don't have much more of an idea of how to achieve that other than "protectionism"). |
|
Seb
rank | Tue Jan 20 20:39:14 Basically, like the Suez crisis, Europe with popular support and willingness to bear economic hit could plunge the US economy into a crisis not seen since before WW2. The main thing you and others argue is "European are weak and wouldn't dare", but what you are seeing in the polls is Europeans are way ahead of their leaders on this across all voting demographics. So the pressure is very much going to be to pursue confrontation, particularly as a way to see if populist threats. And in terms of pain, it's similar to the pain of ditching Russian gas. When the threat of Russia was perceived as real and imminent, public support for ditching Russian gas and taking the hit was there. So my point wasn't some politically naive bullshit about an alliance with the fascists, it was about the underlying political dynamics pulling in that direction very strongly. As for military confrontation, if you *do* get the Fascists in govt, they totally will because like Trump they are dumb. WW1 was very obviously a bad idea, but everyone did it anyway because it was easier than not doing it. |

Seb

That indicates a lot of the attraction is going. Now there's not much that can replace the dollar at the moment because no major currency issuer is issuing such volume of debt and has enough trade volume for it to be usefully liquid asset. However, rearmament is expensive, as is economic disengagement from the US. The real problem then, for the US, is the combination of ECB backed Eurobonds coupled with a collapse in confidence of US political stability. We have one, and the US is trying really really hard to make the other the only policy option available to European capitals. |
