Geopolitics

Trump's obsession with Greenland, Canada and Panama means we're past the mitigation phase of climate change.

We're now at the phase in which world power pivot their strategy towards expecting a warmer world (specifically, a world where the Arctic isn't frozen)

Big question is when this starts bleeding over into the Antarctic as well. I remember Milei came into office claiming a maximalist area of territory on the continent for Argentina. I'm curious where that goes

I love how basically no liberals pick up on this being a complete and utter acceptance that climate change is happening by conservatives

Like there is no world in which Greenland is important to have where climate change can be denied to exist

Given how Trump's mind seems to work, you cannot dismiss the possibility that this entire idea is motivated by the fact that annexing Greenland would make the US quite literally the greatest country on Earth :)  
(well, except for Russia, but there are lines you just cannot cross…)

cognitive science, functional contextualism, tattarrattat

Yeah, but are there any American interests that require actually owning it that couldn't be secured through soft power?

The US has wanted Greenland for like 70+ years, its not a Trump thing he's just memeing it
