Nah. I wish, but until now Europeans have shown no backbone at all against Trump. When the USA take Greenland, the Danish and Greenlanders are gonna be alone, because that’s what happens between NATO members in conflict. The USA, of course, designed it like that.
A UK general said it best. If the US invades Greenland, NATO will naturally dissolve, because it is solely based on trust. Break that trust and it’s over.
Would be one of the most internationally positive outcomes of 2026 if NATO dissolves.
For whom
The global south. NATO is the millitary alliance of the world’s imperialist powers, a destruction of millitary unity among imperialists would severely weaken imperialism. NATO is “defensive” in the same way the Iron Dome is, it gives imperialist countries free reign to treat the world like something to be looted and plundered without fear of genuine blowback.
I’m sure Ukraine, the Baltic trio and Poland agree with you.
Edit: shit, so many opinions of me based on a less than 15 word comment. I’m sure y’all are fun at parties.
Considering they are aligned with the west, who plunder the world’s wealth through export of capital and unequal exchange, that’s not really surprising. Opposition to NATO is pretty basic among anti-imperialists and the global south in general.
God damn it, I hate my education system. I thought NATO was the peacekeeper of the world — a valuable residue of WWII. One sided propaganda-based education developed to fuel a belief in American exceptionalism and nationalistic egoism. This education-level propaganda is pretty effective because you don’t actually know what details to question, and so you grow up with some pretty bold assumptions about how the world works (and don’t even realize it). They had me believing Christopher Columbus was some kind of messiah-explorer too.
How does this happen? My anti-conspiracy brain wants to believe there’s no such thing as an evil man behind the curtain, twisting his mustache and orchestrating these details like ”meh, we need to make sure all the kids believe in this propaganda such that we have an imperialistic society.” So, short of that, how does this happen so effectively?
2 major factors: In any given society, the mode of production is reinforced by the culture, laws, and ideology of said mode of production. Secondly, people license themselves to believe that whatever they think benefits them is good. Capitalism reinforces ideas like individualism, NATO is good, etc, and we go along with it until our material conditions force us into seeing a new reflection of reality, be it at the workplace, or seeing hard evidence online, being the victim of a bombing campaign, etc. It isn’t a man behind the curtain, but capital and the capitalist class.

Libya: The forgotten victims of NATO strikes - Amnesty International
Do you that think those strikes wouldn’t have happened without NATO?
Yes, but even if it would have happened anyways the world would still be better off without NATO.
That’s a pretty difficult claim to support because it requires you to make some pretty insane assumptions about what would have happened without NATO.
How so? Didn’t NATO commit crimes? The fact other criminals exist doesn’t mean one fewer criminal gang isn’t an improvement.
Which NATO country do you think couldn’t have committed all those crimes without the rest of NATO?
It’s not difficult (except for Europeans and their settler counterpart) to understand that the world would be better off without NATO, your whiteness. “If it weren’t for NATO then it would’ve been anyone else!” isn’t the convincing claim you think it is. The burden of supporting such chickenshit non-claim is on you.
You now all the countries that joined NATO would still exist without it, right?
Humanity
Everyone except the shits
COULD?
Yeah, they are THAT cowardly.
Hopefully will.
Ojalá
Let them eat each other.
Insallah the world will be freed
Rare Trump win
Meanwhile Europe spends its so called independence weapons fund once on American weapons. I fully support the liberation of Greenland from the literal Danish Nazis colonizing it and doing eugenics till this day
This practice was banned already last year in January. If you think this is grounds to invade a sovereign nation then you’ve got some twisted world views. Maybe the US should be liberated from it’s oppressive anti-abortion, anti-trans government, hm? Sounds like the exact same argument to me. Every country has its problems. If you think invading is going to make anything better, then fuck right off.
Despite the ban, parenting competency tests are still being used by municipalities as evidence against Greenlandic parents at the National Social Appeals Board, Gjørret says. The Ministry of Social Affairs and Housing denies this, saying that “Since May 1, 2025, the National Social Appeals Board has not used standardised psychological tests for decisions on placement of a child from a Greenlandic family in care outside the home.”
If only the working class across all nations had a defensive alliance. Oh you wanna go to war? General strike.
Fuck these imaginary lines on a map. We are a divided and conquered species.
Europe may need to end the Russian invasion fast so they only have one front to fight on.
Fastest way is for Kiev to cede the 4 oblasts that already want to be a part of the Russian Federation anyways, and NATO neutrality.
Are there other places like these 4 oblasts that want to be a part of the Russian federation?
Generally they already are a part of the Russian Federation if they want to be.
Appreciate your reply.
