Summary
Greenland’s Prime Minister Mute Egede renewed calls for independence from Denmark in his New Year speech, citing the need to overcome colonial legacies and reshape Greenland’s future.
Egede highlighted dissatisfaction with historical Danish policies, including forced birth control in the 20th century, and noted Greenland’s self-governance since 2009 allows for an independence vote.
While most of Greenland’s 57,000 residents support independence, debates persist over its economic impact due to reliance on Danish aid and fishing.
Greenland’s government rejected U.S. offers to purchase the island, asserting it is “not for sale.”
Good news Greenland, someone is the market to buy your country. Sure, you won’t have independence however you get a new sugar daddy.
But the real question is, if it becomes independent, will it finally have data?
I think all countries should be allowed to go for independence if they choose to but I’d really suggest Greenland to reconsider. They get a massive amount of expenses sponsored by Denmark compared to how much they pay. It’s essentially like having a sugar daddy.
IUD is not sterilisation, it’s a reversible procedure and Denmark has historically done much worse. Currently the relations have been good and the axe has been buried so I see it as a win for Greenland to stay as a part of Denmark.
But it wasn’t reversed and was done without consent exclusively to Inuit girls and women - saying they’ve done worse is such a weak copout - “you see Jim Crow laws aren’t that bad because the axe had been buried so I’d see it as a win to keep things as is since relations between the north and the south haven’t been better since the civil war.”
Grexit?
KalaallOut
Grexit pt 2 in that case
It already Grexited?
Well that one doesn’t count, it failed.

Ah yes after Trump is like I’d buy it. If the people want to be independent that is up to them of course.
What is he wearing? It looks to me like a hoody in a weird material.
Edit: looks like it’s traditional.

I’d call that an anorak, but what do I know, I’m Canadian.

As others have pointed out they have valid grievances and good reason to want independence. As a dane I only learned about the non-consensual and secretive implantation of UID’s in women and girls that had been going on a few decades ago. Learning about that and other systemic issues they have dealt with I can not begrudge them wanting independence. Whether they seek it or decide to stay, I hope they have a brighter future ahead of them and that Denmark will support that as best we are able.
Trump wants to buy Greenland… Could become a reality in the future
Just saw a post about food positioning inside of a microwave, and immendiately see a post made by MicroWave themselves. Coincidence? I think not!
