How d I get one
The article title is only what the small print on the side of the hat says. The front text is a pun on the name of Greenlands capital, Nuuk.
“Nu det nok” means “now it’s enough”/“enough is enough”, but they changed the ‘nok’ (enough) to ‘Nuuk’.
Wouldn’t Trump just mistake the red hats as translated MAGA hats and so take it as public support of the invasion? Not like he can understand the language, or read the fine print on the side. He just sees you guys using the same hat his base does.
Yeah, that was a strategic blunder on their part.
Most likely, yeah.
Yo can we get this in Canada?
Probably, but it’s sold out at the moment.
They’re made in China.
So are all the MAGA hats, and most of fake gold shit Trump is selling.
Native American here: we have been trying and failing for 400 years now and could really use some help from everyone.
Out of curiosity, if you’re visibly non-white:
Have you ever been told to “get out of our country” or anything like that? Think I’ve seen articles about racist people telling Native Americans to gtfo a long time ago, but no idea how prevalent this kind of idiocy is or if it was just ragebait, as I’m not American myself.
Yep I get told that all the time. I’m 42 and am born and raised in my town and I’ve been told by older white men who are not from here to leave here or got to a bar/casino and drink myself to death. I’ve even been told to watch my back because the president is gonna allow “Indian” killings again.
I’m sorry that you and yours have had to put up with that kind of stuff for so long. When I was a kid I really believed that we’d have gotten over all of this racist bullshit by now, but I was always a little too starry-eyed for my own good.
Agreed I always thought that real true hatred and racism was a thing of the past. But the older I got the more I see it right in my face most of the time.
At this rate that wouldn’t even shock me. The president bit I mean.
With the Trump admin flat out saying that they’re entitled to any piece of land and any resources they want because of military strength, you can kinda see how “we were here long before you” is once again not enough to justify your existence to the fascists.
I hope it doesn’t come to that and that you’re safe. Can’t imagine what it must feel like to be seen as an outsider in the land your ancestors have been living on since time immemorial.
Thank you, I do hope that things will improve for all of us. But know we have to be the ones to make things happen for the better. I just wish it doesn’t have to involve violence and death.
I’ve even been told to watch my back because the president is gonna allow “Indian” killings again.
European here. Why are there Americans that hate Natives? Maybe I’m missing something, but I’ve never heard of natives terrorizing US, being the group of controversies, or anything else that could be used for hate. In fact, everything I’ve heard about Native Americans make me assume they’re chill and interesting to hang out with
EDIT: I forgot about racists, but outside of racism - is there anything I’m missing?
I think it is just flat out racism. As an example I have a coworker who is only 2 years older than me and he and his wife absolutely HATES Native Americans. Every opportunity he has to make sure to tell me that the whites “rightfully” took this land because my ancestors were to unruly and didn’t believe in god. And that we willingly gave them everything and now natives are mad at losing everything.
Some days eugenics seems sensible. Your coworker and his wife should not be allowed to raise children.
Funny thing about karma, they have been trying for 20+ years and they are unable to have kids. They have spend thousands of dollars on all medical procedures to get pregnant and none have worked.
Some times, on a small scale, karma really does seem to exist. I’m watching it happen in real life with two of the worst people I know. My incredibly abusive ex, who can no longer afford to pay her rent because she’s too lazy to go back to work and instead has been on sick leave for a bone fracture in her hand for 4 months because her doctor is willing to extend sick leaves indefinitely (government in my country will pay for sick leave up to 6 months per year), and her abusive new boyfriend, who can’t hold down a job and doesn’t pay his debts so now it’s entirely likely that his car, literally the only thing either of them owns that’s worth anything (and the reason she got together with him in the first place - she only looks at guys cars), will be taken away by the bailiff to help cover said debts.
Both people who have so far survived off lying, stealing and abusing. Now together, and neither can get the other to support them. Neither has anywhere else to go either, it seems. Poetic justice.
I’m white and I caught that shit almost 20 years ago because I was in an ESL program (despite English being my native tongue) because I moved to the states from Italy. Mind you I lived in USA before that and am natural born citizen, just father was stationed in Italy so I lived there for 3 years. Moved to USA in time for 2nd grade so had never been in an American school system yet. Mother is an immigrant sure but they didn’t even know that, just saw me in the “Mexican kids class” and struggling with reading and spelling so I was one of “them”. Mind you I’m talking about early elementary school, so kids just parroting and learning what their parents say at home. I can only imagine what darker skin people have to deal with from racist pricks raising racist children.
A full on economic embargo on the US would be a nice push, but the EU is too damn dependent (and swerving to the right as of late).
Well if the US full-on turns on its NATO allies, it’s no longer out of the question.
Will be the end of the EU auto industry for sure, I think some other industries can cope better.
oh i see that, i had a NAVAJO professor in college once, he was a very angry person in general and he stated it stems from that same “Decimation of 400 years” and would express towards the students making him somewhat ineffective instructor.
Dances with wolves me bro, I’ll help.
What is crazy is this was actually a huge problem for frontier settlements. Tonnes of people would meet the indigenous population, be exposed to their society, learn enough of their language to communicate, and then go “fuck this” to all the European culture and just move in with the locals. They brought whatever skills they had including metalworking and so on and joined up and for the most part it went really really well for them, until the westerners came and killed everyone. Behind The Bastards had a great episode a few years ago about it, through the lens of one particular bastard, and yeah, faced with a culture where individuals were not exploited for every last shilling of value to the shareholders people wanted out.
I tried looking for this, but I couldn’t find it. Any chance you could look at that episode because I would love to listen to it?
Yo same.
Yeah you guys got a really shit deal, and the really unforgivable part is that you’re still getting more shit deals even today. I’m a descendant of the colonizers, but I’m willing to help get rid of any of the ones who perpetuate these shit deals and don’t think you guys absolutely deserve to be in charge around here. I mean, I’ll go too, if you want, but I’m just putting it out there that I’d also be delighted to try to learn from and live in a society run by potentially actually wise elders instead of greedy old white men. Maybe someday we’ll get to give it a try.
Any alliance is welcomed brother we all need a hand in this situation regardless of color or gender.
This is great, but maga idiots can’t read. They are gonna think you’re on their side.
let me look up how to say “make greenland great again” in west greenlandic
Kalaallit Nunaat angerlaneqarpoq ajunnginnersaatitaasarlugu
that might be hard to fit on a hat
Hmm, maybe try east greenlandic?
Klaatu veratu niktu
American here. Those of us with more than 2 brain cells are sorry that the Dunning-Krueger effect which elected and fuels the Orange Jackass is bringing our insanity to your doorstep. Almost nobody here wants your country but there’s literally nothing we can do because the Orange Jackass controls all the tanks.
The Greenlanders and Danes should export those hats into the USA.
We in the US do not wear red hats anymore… Excepting those who are completely fucked in the head.
My dad got a red ballcap, and I told him he probably shouldn’t wear it outside lest people think the wrong thing about him. Nobody wants to encourage the loonies.
On the plus side, I’ve haven’t seen a red hat in well over a year in a county he slightly won.
Canada too
I honestly can’t even stand ironic non-maga hats.
Can, or can’t?
Can’t (typo - now fixed)
Can I buy one and ship it to the US? Only a small fraction of us actually like Trump. The rest of the numbers are blown up by the media to seem bigger than they are, then another chunk didn’t even vote at all.
2/3 of the country not opposing his policies seems pretty clear cut to me
My over-generalized understanding is that it’s more like 1/3rd, but because of exploited political geography their votes were “more special” than the rest of ours, so suddenly we arrived at:
“The whole country wanted this!”
(Historians’ note: No they didn’t.)
When I last looked at the numbers months ago, the actual number of votes for Republicans was 1/3 of the eligible voting population
Ohhhh I think I might have misread your original comment. Were you saying 2/3rds didn’t vote for this , but aren’t meaningfully opposing it?
(In which case me getting updoots on that one for being wrong is a tad confusing but lol internet I guess?)
I would partially disagree in that case though. There’s a lot being done but it’s definitely more quiet than all the damage they’re doing, and the opposition has to move carefully.
There are certainly a lot of weenie politicians that are sticking with the age old strategy of “I’m not like those guys” while tacitly supporting the corruption at the same time, and they need to be fired and replaced as swiftly and ruthlessly as possible with fighters.
sorry, I screwed up in my reply. I meant to say only 1/3 of the voting population voted against him (but yes also 1/3 voted for him, and 1/3 didn’t vote at all)
I was trying to say that 2/3 did not meaningfully oppose him, yes
Only a small fraction of us actually like Trump.
Bullshit, he got half the votes, and those that didn’t vote didn’t dislike him enough to prevent his election.
So Americans like Trump plenty, until he does something that hurts them personally.
If you really believe your own comment, you are delusional.alot of its based on sexism, they dint like trump enough but dislike women in charge evenmore.
I’m going to go against both grains here:
- There are plenty of older Americans who are “Republican” and don’t care who the candidate is, that’s the party that they feel best aligns with their traditional beliefs and values. They don’t or won’t watch the media because they know most of it is bullshit (true for both sides). So, there are plenty that stay ignorant/naive in a sense.
On the flip side of that coin, I guess I shouldn’t have immediately jumped into this being political, and should really strive to unite both sides bc we all know money buys politics! Aka rich vs everyone else, so it’s a vertical battle, not horizonal!
I don’t care which “side” is which, we need a candidate who’s not bought and paid for!
don’t care which “side” is which,
So it’s OK to lose healthcare and you don’t care that the minimum wage is unlivable?
You don’t care mass shootings are a multiple times a week occurrence!
As long as the president isn’t bought?First off, lol, min wage isn’t a Republican problem alone. We’ve had 12 of the last 17 years (since 2008s last set of 7.25) be democratic led, so really, they don’t care just as much as Republicans…
Bro, we’ve already “lost” the healthcare war. Nobody gives a shit, or it’d change. If the politicians weren’t bought by pharma, they’d likely change policies for the better. Get it? Right now laws make it possible to fuck us because they’re in big money’s pockets.
Also, school shootings are a parenting problem. They’re not being locked up, which is how a lot of kids get them in the first place. Policymakers can easily do more to assist in reducing the root cause. But it takes time to tackle. Banning guns flat out isn’t the answer and never has been. Sorry.
But nice try turning it to seem so negative. Like I just want the country to suck more?? Honestly, pretty much anyone else could make improvements/do a better job.
I’m not a conspiracy tinfoil hat guy, but there’s been enough projection and “holy shit are they actually admitting it?!?!?” ramblings from Trump, Musk and Rogan over this past year that it’s not just myself, but have brought many others to call into question the authenticity of the results.
TLDR: IT WAS RIGGED
I don’t believe you, because there is not a shred of evidence of that.
Occam’s Razor tells us it is much more plausible that Americans are just stupid, and didn’t learn the lesson from 2 periods of Bush Jr. and the first period of Trump.
The American society is sociopathic and hold individual freedom as a religion. And they see Trump being a malignant narcissist as a perfect example of individual freedom, and they don’t recognize the sociopathy because they see it as a virtue.This is to me the way more plausible explanation, that we have seen play out in many presidential elections in USA, Where already Reagan’s uncompromising war mongering campaign won over the much more moral and humane Carter that wanted environmental sustainability. Religious fanatics are fundamentalists, and fundamentalists vote to the right, and psychopaths are fascists and vote to the right. Trump election victory is 100% based in the insanity of the American society.
I am not saying all Americans are insane, there are many good Americans, but just as a person that has terminal cancer has cancer cells in the body that makes the body sick, doesn’t mean that all cells are cancer cells. And in the same way American society is sick, because there are so many “sick” people that behave in ways that are harmful, that the society as a whole is sick.
Seen from a country that is one of the best democracies in the world, there is absolutely no doubt about it. It is very obvious that American society as a whole is very very sick.
American here, and one who grew up in what is now trump country. Well, I guess I still live in a republican area now, but I started out rural.
Your conclusion about how the society as a whole is sick is 100% spot on.
I don’t do much international travel, but I did get to spend a little bit of time in europe in the past couple years. Most of it in scandinavia of all places!
The difference is crazy, even not counting all this recent crazy shit. On the surface things look similar. But being immersed in it let all the little details sink in simultaneously.
There’s an air of dignity and respect that I am just not used to in american society. Even just the instances of “we couldn’t have that, somebody would immediately ruin it” were constant.
Thanks I don’t think most Americans realize how bad it is, and how deep it goes.
To a huge extent, I don’t think they know there are other options.
Or they are well aware of different cultures but know to their core that the USA is the greatest society to ever exist and God’s chosen or some shit. So all those progressive policies sound nice, yet they have produced abysmal results in every single European country! This is true by definition when every place outside the US is utter trash in your lead-addled brain.
Sorry, but that argument doesn’t hold water anymore. We gave you guys the benefit of the doubt for his first term, but this time you knew exactly what you were getting, and you allowed him back anyway. 32% of the eligibile population voting for him is not just some small minority.
You would condemn the 30% that voted against him, the non voters, not to mention the children, just for the crimes of a minority, however multitious?
The children? No.
The dead weight “opposition” that does nothing but complain online? Yes. Blood is in your hands too.
Just to be clear, which do you condemn more? Those who voted for Democrats or third party, or those who refused to vote altogether?
I think this is a pretty pointless distinction, but sure, here’s a convenient nine-year-old ready list for your reference, ordered best to worse:
A person actively protesting, sabotaging and working politically against the current administration > A crusty sock I’ve forgotten I’ve left behind my bed after a gym session > Person voting for a democrat > Person not voting > Person voting for a Republican > Person voting for Donald Trump > Hitler
Is it not possible that the capitalist system we work under makes it very difficult for many people to protest, either through working them so hard that they have no energy, or no time, or makes it harder for them to get work or even keep their jobs to survive if they openly oppose the establishment, eg on social media?
Are these oppressed people truly worse in your eyes than a crusty sock?
Is it not possible that the capitalist system we work under makes it very difficult for many people to protest
When was history ever easy? What exactly did you expect, to induce change by tweeting angrily? Is the difficulty more important than the lives being lost?
Either way, not sure how that’s an answer to my comment. There are a thousand different ways to fight that aren’t simply sharing a perfectly rehearsed AOC rebuttal that is precisely long enough to make for a viral TikTok video designed by a PR team and then feeling like you’re different. You are not. Voting for a party is not the end of your civic duties, nor does it make you opposition if that’s the end of your actions.
Last time he didn’t win the popular vote, so there was some consolation to be taken. This time we really don’t have an excuse.
the signs/evidence of rigging was also more obvious this time around too. the DNC shills know, they just dont want thier money train to end if they supported an investigation or wanted harris to win. the old guard DNC benefits much more when GOP wins, because they get those same donor dollars that the gop does. and only allowed to ’ fix things" once in awhile.
Those who didn’t vote in the 2024 election are equally culpable to the Trumpoids in my eyes. It was very clear what Trump stood for, yet they didn’t bother to go out and vote against fascism.
My favorites are the ones who claimed they couldn’t vote for a genocide.
Now they have three genocides and two invasions.
Especially when Harris, as VP, supported investigating Israel so they could shut down the rule forcing them to supply arms to Israel.
It’s my opinion that she only reversed course to get campaign donations. Looking at her voting history she was the closest to Sanders out of everyone.
Seems to me very likely that Harris would have been an above average president.
But sadly Americans chose the fascist psycho over Harris, because they didn’t think Harris was left wing enough, or that she didn’t support the Palestinians enough.The logic being: I’d rather be killed by a fascist psycho than not be helped as much as I want by a way more moderate person, that isn’t actively supporting killing me.
The logic being: I’d rather be killed by a fascist psycho than not be helped as much as I want by a way more moderate person, that isn’t actively supporting killing me
That’s too much logical thought.
Much closer to “woman not like me bad, man like me good” than anything else.
I admit I sometimes forget the sexist racist aspect, and I think you are right in that was a significant factor too. But it doesn’t make it less stupid I suppose as you hint at, it actually just makes it even more stupid.
Oh, for sure.
Is this really news?
