I’m sorry, but I’m struggling to understand how they make this work. How do you infiltrate a country like Greenland?

Have they managed to learn the language or are they running around speaking English or some sort of danish while talking shit about the Danes? And if they learned the language; are they pretending to be from some far remote village where no one has relatives and can check their story?

Or have they converted some local Greenlanders? And if so; wouldn’t everyone know them and think something is off?

I wouldn't be suprised if they offered them money or other things in order to get them to agree etc. I heard that some people in Nuuk were paid to participate in the welcoming when Vance got there as well...

Oh yeah, that was it, thank you! But it really shows to what lenght this US Government goes in order to get what they want...it's scary and sickening

I mean, they're sending people to literal concentration camps as we speak. Paying homeless people for photo ops is mild by their standards.

The answer to all your questions is yes.

I've seen attempts to ridicule it, but yes, countries who are up to these kind of things try all possible routes.

And face it, the part of the current US regime that deals with this is neither run by smart people, nor do any of them care about being discrete. They're all too entitled for that and experience shows that they are made of teflon, nothing sticks.

That’s because they identity as Greenlanders, not Danes. You will also find people in Denmark who are not happy with the government. Does that give another state the right to sow inner tension by deliberately spreading fake news? I’m sure the US wouldn’t appreciate if that happened on, say, Hawaii🤦‍♀️

Obviously, governments need an approval rating of 100%. Anything below that is basically an open invitation for three letter agencies.

Why would Greenlanders identify as Danes? They are Inuit.

Greenland and Denmark are two different entities in the Commonwealth 

That doesnt mean Greenlanders want to be American.

Everyone has the right to be unhappy with their own govt and have this discussed democratically without the default being “ergo, that must mean they want to become American” 💀
