even as denmark puts out statements asking the US to back off greenland, it won’t come out and directly criticize the US for violating international law in venezuela.
it’s the typical western response: “maduro was bad and international law should be respected” but never stating who violated it.

Remember that the US *does not care* about the people of Venezuela. It is not about "narcotrafficking", or "democracy", or whatever propaganda they have going. It is *explicitly* about US control over oil, capital accumulation, and geopolitical power.

EU citizens - especially those in Greenland - deserve a clear answer to the question of how EU leaders would react to attempts of the US to annex Greenland. Will there be a clear political and economic response? Or is it also going to be a "complex situation" to be "closely monitored"?

4/4 This also means that @sorenmau.bsky.social and I are looking for a place to live near Gothenburg from September 1, 2025. We’re dreaming about renting an old wooden farmhouse in the forest with space to read, think, write and live. Any heads up are highly appreciated ❤️

SF er iøvrigt opposition til S må man forstå. Men det skal ikke stoppe SFs top for at fordreje ytringsfrihedsbegrebet til fordel for sin "ledelse"
Det er helt uacceptabelt at knægte ytringsfriheden på den måde. Vær uenig - fair nok, men tag debatten. Lad vær med at hindre andre i at ytre sig! Det er antidemokratiske metode - stop jer selv!

A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time:
Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves.
Q: Why are you running away?
Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels.
Q: But you’re foxes!
Fox: Yeah, why don’t *you* try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
