I’ve changed my mind about being unhinged online. I didn’t mean *that* unhinged
He’s not “managing” him, he’s just giving him fawning, brown-nose admiration, and both material and propaganda support.

There’s a word for that- Quisling.

Personally, I think it is far more ”well-balanced“ to look at the world in terms of material reality, rather than hiding behind myths of the Good, Kindly Colonial Overlords.

Considering you’re a historian, it’s surprising you‘re so reluctant to learn from history.

But, assuming that you are right and the US will magically take Greenland bloodlessly-

Then that would be condemning those 50,000 people to the whims of a colonial empire desperate for mined rare earth minerals and heavy metals.

The pollution leaks into the water- where the available food lives.

The yanks have never once shown a shred of compassion or mercy towards the people they invade- and considering they slaughtered almost a million civilians across the middle east in the last two decades, I think your certainty in their restraint is pollyannaish

The alternative is condemning those 50,000 to death without a fight, while wiping your hands of the responsibility.

One option is ideal from a utilitarian perspective. It is also reprehensible from any perspective built on morality and the belief in the sanctity of all human lives.

I’ve never once replied to old mate Stancil. I’ve just seen him, over the course of years, be consistently a cruel, hateful little bully- who defends the genocide of Palestinians, and keeps stalking and harassing women (particularly trans women) who don’t praise him.

Nasty little incel creep.

In which case, maybe Stancil should stop telling so many trans women to drink bleach

I reckon the ancient potters would be THRILLED

Tanakh god is genocidal- but Christian god is just as genocidal, while also condemning people to a literal eternity of torture beyond imagination

Idk I feel like the second one is a wee bit worse
January 16, 2026 at 7:45 AM
He’s a nasty little bully who supports the eradication of Palestinians, and stalks women who disagree with him, telling them to kill themselves

Ukraine does not have a treaty of mutual defence. Greenland does.

Non-yanks tend to actually follow through on treaties

I think they are constantly thinking “I wish I had hands and internet access so I could write a blog post about an Australian Homosexual”

Those darn Muslims, so horrible towards Christians! The Christians had to pay a special tax that Muslims didn’t!

Of course, the Muslims also had to pay a special tax that Christians didn’t- and it was calculated differently, meaning that wealthy Christians actually had a financial advantage

Idk, I‘m not sure putting violent neo-nazi death cultists in other professions is a great idea either

The ideology of fascism is predicated on the Strong using their power to conquer the Weak- it’s actively a pro-paedophilia ideology. (Hence the Nazis’ fetish for Spartan paederasty)

“Continue to think that saying “abolish the Gestapo” without explaining how you’ll enforce the Nacht und Nebel decree is a trap!”
January 10, 2026 at 7:04 AM
“Debunked“ no it hasn’t, they have a well-documented history of active discrimination against gay and trans people, and of deliberately aiding and abetting child sexual abuse!

It has been a wretched time for discourse lately, with so few people acknowledging this!

Free, independent Kalaallit Nunaat- with significant reparations from Denmark including security guarantees!

As Everyone knows, those Victorians were ever so genteel and polite- and they famously NEVER did any violent horrific proto-fascism

Most younger Estonians I know identify much more strongly as Eastern European, or if not then as Uralic. I think that the Estonia-As-Nordic thing is of an older generation, and is fading away
