Greenland should be an independent country for Inuit people. Mayos out

The US successfully annexing more land would be very bad even if those countries themselves are also bad. The US is at or near the height of its geopolitical power and is clearly in a new cold war with China. So I guess I don't disagree, I'm not gonna play defense for Canada or Denmark, but we should play defense for AES countries and the struggle for the global working class.

Absolutely no doubt, this should be the main take here it’s basic revolutionary defeatism for US citizens

Any US users here talking revolutionary defeatism need to stop bringing up Canada and exercise it IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY first. Seek the defeat of your own imperial power’s ambitions above all else, yes Canada is imperialist too but a strengthened US is clearly a worse outcome than a battered Canada which if successful in remaining sovereign would absolutely move away from the imperialist western bloc. Yes the Canadian liberals will quickly sell out sovereignty for their own gain but if pressures in the US prolong the process then a resistance can be mounted outside of the bourgeois govt structures as they exist and something new can be born to the North. This would be the result of successful application of this concept in both countries it’s not that hard to not be chauvinistic

“If we see that Germany is winning we ought to help Russia and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany, and that way let them kill as many as possible, although I don't want to see Hitler victorious under any circumstances.” - Harry S. Truman

Replace Germany with the US and Russia with Canada. Tho its more likely that its a Germany-France scenario and Canada immediately surrenders.
