“Police may have to be involved in my invasion of my victim’s home” says criminal
An attack on one is an attack on all. I always wondered what would happen if one NATO country attacked another.

Putin sits back and laughs his head off.
it’s also an attack on america. jesus fuck do we not remember how this ends?
kill the fucking americans if they pull this shit. make sure they see that open aggression only gets them coffin stuffing, and that only if they’re willing to pay shipping.
Aggressor gets kicked out and NATO has to defend the attacked
Yep. Because that’s exactly what happened with Greece and Turkey…
Well, it was close to happening with greece and turkey. And I dont think cyprus is quite the same thing as the US trying to take over greenland, is it?
I am talking about the Imia crisis in 1996.
Which side does he think NATO would support?
This is wholly out of control.
Fix your country, you absolute selfish idiots.
I don’t disagree, but… how?
Join the 50501 protests and/or attend TeslaTakedown protests.
- Joining and organizing within your local community to create connections with others is incredibly powerful, will lay the groundwork for effective resistance.
- We can effect things drastically with a general strike. This can massively impact their income streams, and can bring a government to its knees if done on a large enough scale.
- Join the IWW and attempt to unionize your workplace, so that the general strike is even more effective.
If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Join up with allies while we still can easily!
Fuckin’ hard work, my friend. As Joe Hill said, “Don’t mourn, organize!”
Second amendment… Your founding fathers already wrote the instructions for you. Just do it.
Mario’s brother showed you the way.
A simple bang is all that’s needed.
Seriously. Fucking do something.
Yes, but all the people who could and should have prevented this did nothing. What would you suggest a normal person do?
There are a lot of illegal things you can do, and a lot of things republican supporters openly do that involve violence. I’m not going to openly implicate myself but use your imagination.
There have been some successful non-violent revolutions in history, and there’s a strong case to be made that not exhausting those options could be a huge mistake.
We still have, right now, completely un-used tools at our disposal, such as unionizing en masse and deploying a general strike, which is insanely powerful (capable of bringing a nation to its knees if done widely enough), while being far less dangerous and more appealing to the general populace than any other means.
Unionization en mass and a general strike are just simply not realistic goals in the current political and social climate in the US. And that half assed attempt at organization at that level is now going to get my country invaded.
You know what else didn’t seem like reasonable goals in the current political climate? Dissolving USDA and global boycotts, resulting in absolutely tanking Tesla stock. Things change.
Organizing can make the change necessary to overcome usamerican fascism. Giving up and relying on the status quo will allow your “democracy” to die in silence.
I’m not saying don’t do those things. Quite the opposite. I just don’t see them playing out as effectively as they need to. But maybe I’m just becoming cynical in my old age. Power to you, organizing is useful.
Trump thinks that NATO is his personal army now?
Eh, must be Tuesday
Greenland and Canada are NATO countries. You cannot attack or forcefully annex another NATO country. If he leaves NATO, he will be up against Canada & Europe. The US is one Twizzler away from having the entire world sanction & boycott it.
And who does that benefit on the large scale?
This isn’t Trump being a greedy idiot. This is systematic destruction of the US from inside out. Can’t say Russia didn’t warn you though:
“We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the US. We will destroy you from within.”
— Nikita Khrushchev January 18th, 1956
It’s pretty clear he’s a putin asset.
NATO will do exactly nothing to help the bloated orange shit-weasel take over Greenland.
Amazing. It is like they want people to hate America as much as possible before America starts confronting China.
As a Canadian, I don’t know which country i hate more at this point.
I know I’m supposed to understand that China is horrible, and the young US dick-tatorship is still nothing compared to Chinese high-tech totalitarian dystopia… but somehow, seeing USA, a supposed former friend and ally, turn into a ruthless, unprincipled traitor, aligning itself with Russia… With Russia, of all states! And spitting in the face of the hero of our times…
We know Russians here in Poland. We know how their army works, we know their mentality. When Ukraine reported war crimes, we believed them. Seeing US backstab Ukraine like that… It’s just too much. I think the American brand is dead for us.
China has done about 1/100th the crap the us has. Even at its best, the us was overthrowing legitimate governments and destroying entire nations. China may not be perfect, but they are a whole hell of a lot better than the us.
China is a shit country. But like if you look at where they are coming from historically I think they are moving forwards. America is moving backwards. China has a ton of potential and I hope the chinese use it well. I am less hopeful for americans at this point.
The more I look into Greenland situation the more I am thinking there’s already a psychological campaign in play to get them to be part of the US. They’re legitimately trying to get away for the Danish government and there’s a strong US presence there already with military bases. I suspect the target is to get them to hand over the keys not only willingly but ask for it.
They are working on interfering in Canada too and have funded far-right groups, including the freedom convoy.

Dumbass doesn’t even understand that NATO is a DEFENSIVE pact and that Denmark is a member. Not wanting to give you their territory doesn’t count as an attack.
Also if he really cared about security he would have strengthened his ties with his allies instead of pushing them away. The US is far less secure now that it was 3 months ago.
NATO isn’t really defensive.
It’s two main Engagements - Kosovo and Afghanistan - were pretty solidly offensive imo.
Kill him. I’m Canadian. Come at me.
Can we stop these kinds of comments? It’s exactly what MAGA will use to rile up violence against Canada. Who doesn’t like a fun plumber video game but we’re better off encouraging and helping Americans to organise.

Dear readers, friendly reminder that your votes on lemmy are in no way private.
I hope NATO does get involved. Not the same way Trump hopes though…
Canada has three of top 5 longest sniper kills. Ukraine has the top spot. We just need to export a small chunk of metal at high velocity into a golf course.
Not getting banned on Lemmy moment
I hope you’re prepared to pay an extra 25% on that export.
No, no, the importer pays the tax. You might want to send them a little extra if you want to help them out with that.
