Vance slams Denmark for not keeping Greenland safe from Russia, China
-
Summary
JD Vance criticized Denmark for failing to protect Greenland from Russian and Chinese incursions during a visit to the U.S. military base in Pituffik.
While pledging respect for Greenland's sovereignty, Vance announced increased U.S. naval presence without expanding ground forces.
Trump echoed the need for Greenland’s strategic importance to global security.
Greenland’s new prime minister condemned the visit as disrespectful, and public protests opposed U.S. influence. Trump’s administration continues to push for stronger U.S. involvement in the mineral-rich Arctic region.
Looks like they updated the title: "Vance accuses Denmark of not keeping Greenland safe from Russia, China"
But really, journalists don't need to pretend any of this is legitimate. Add a "dubiously" in there. This is obviously not a sincere complaint. Stop assuming good faith just because he's got an official title.

For real. Get me out of here man I don't wanna die in a failed state
I doubt any countries are lining up to take in the average U.S. citizen

Have Russia and China ever threatened Greenland? Because I can only think of one country that actually has.

As a citizen of fucking USA, I keep expecting to wake up one morning with bombs being dropped on us. And frankly, I fully welcome the bombs. Whatever keeps my family from reliving concentration camps.
I've often wondered how I would have acted during the Nazi invasion of Poland. Apparently, the answer is "become paralyzed with fear and thank my luck every day that they didn't come for me."
I've spent so much of my life trying to honor my family who died in the Holocaust by teaching kids about their lives and explaining how complacency will allow it to happen again. Yet here I am, metaphorically hiding under a blanket telling myself "but if the monster comes to get me, you know I'll get them then!"
I hate living through all this and grown to hate myself over the snivelling inactive role I play.
I keep waiting for mass resistance to kick off so I can join in, but it never does.

What incursions would those be, JD?
The DARVO ones.

Journalists need to quit acting as uncritical flying monkeys for the fascists' DARVO tactics.

They're not. I will probably die in a failed state

In 2016, I would have agreed with you. I think now, journalists' personal safety might be at risk if they don't fall in line.

Plenty of other journalists posting anti Trump content without problem. If you're too scared to use words to mildly criticize power, you shouldn't be a journalist in the first place. They didn't become cowards due to Trump's new hyper fascism, they've been like that the whole time.

Russia can't even easily annex confining countries with lots of roads and rails, how they would even try to get to Greenland with all those NATO countries in the middle.
China would even need to circumnavigate the Americas to reach it
I feel there's another dictatorship that's more dangerous than those two

Kind of a moot point I guess. You're right, they were always cowards.

The US made agreement with Denmark to do this in 1951. Instead, the US has gone from 10000 personel to 200 and closed the majority of their bases. From 17 to 1 base.
This is Danish foreign minister on the subject after it being clear that JD Vance has no idea what he's talking about

In the middle? Have you ever seen a globe? They would go across the Arctic.
That's why there are American airbases and NATO radar stations up there.

That's the thing. There are probably a lot of people thinking the exact same thing, you just haven't found each other.
