How is this in any way funny? A Nato country threatening to invade and capture another Nato country? That's exactly the kind of bullshit Nato was founded to prevent from happening.

watching nazi infighting is, in fact, hilarious

sweet summer child

been saying it for years, we are way beyond post truth society. it's been a post-irony society for a decade.

This shit makes more sense in a comedy than reality.

They believe it's funny because it "triggers the libs". That's really all that matters to them

Where are the aliens destroying the White House with everyone inside, when we need them?

I guess one fuckup of a war just isn't enough to distract from those files, huh?

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I feel america could have a civil war and he'd be like o look Canada. Lets invade that.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 0 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Honestly, that's the kind of thing that might start a civil war, when factions within the US military decide to reject such horrible orders and turn against their own government instead.

[–] Ross86@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago

Spoiler, the army wont refuse orders

[–] TiredTiger@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Be careful what you wish for. There is zero chance of the military 'saving' the US and handing power to...whom exactly? This is how you get a military junta - and the capitalists in charge would merely be relieved to drop the pretense of democracy. At least then people would realize they can't vote their way out of this mess.

[–] racoon@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Cuba it is, then. And everybody else will be relieved it is not their country on the line

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He just announced troops in Poland (next door to Denmark), as well.

Invading a country was never easier

As long as no ones actually doing anything aboit it...

Trump, I beg of you, please invade Greenland. The euros need a taste of their own medicine. They'll ~~learn their lessons~~ increase military spending.

Oh wait no! Don't do it!

[–] Lowleekun@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It is hard to see how we would further increase the military spending without risking civil unrest but maybe I am mistaken. I would like the people to stir up some shit but I don't like the idea of even more weapons.

[–] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

To increase military spending without causing unrest requires something to rally around, and Trump taking over Greenland would be exactly that thing to rally around. Even though the us already controls Greenland defacto, it doesn't matter. The nationalism can be generated either way.

Only way for Europe to back down from further military spending is to first back down from foreign military adventures, then make a detente with Russia. Even then Europe will still need some manufacturing and military spending and energy spending to simply be able to hold against the US and avoid vassalisation. That's the only realistic good ending.

[–] Lowleekun@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

At the same time I don't see Europe ready to repair relations with Russia unless the US hurts them directly. Wild times and not easy to have hope for Europe to do good.

[–] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well one thing you must understand about Europe is that their ruling class only cares about profit and the ruled class is very subservient to whatever the ruling class tells them. In the event that the European ruling class's investments in America get fucked, there is a possibility of Russia opening investments for Europeans, which will immediately cause the European policy to revert.

Of course that would be a reversal of a decades long relationship of capital between the US and Europe, however, these are exactly the times where such decades long trends are being broken. Not to mention, as the US declines and a crisis of overproduction builds (AI), it is only a matter of time for investments in the US to be tanked.

The real factor is whether or not the Russians are willing to play ball and treat the euros with kiddie gloves. I'm sure they'll extract some juicy concessions if they are. But fear not, the euros are experienced with servicing greater powers.

[–] Lowleekun@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah I sometimes forget that it is about European capital being invested heavily in the US. Let us hope for burned investments soonish and for lenient Russians.

[–] Pissed@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Europe has been the sacrificial lamb of world politics since the cold war. Common consensus was that Europe would be destroyed if any one side decided to do anything big. We're already drinking the medicine down by the bucket load.

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He’s doing it all on purpose, ruling everyone up so his supporters think it’s hilarious. And causing chaos everywhere as part of his handlers plans to destroy America and reduce you down to a bit player. Russia smiles.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I wish there was some truth to your idiotic comment

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago

I mean gestures around
