Lmao has the west realised that the US doesn't give a shit about them yet?

I'm certainly hoping this debacle will snap some more people out of it, but I kinda doubt it will be very effective to that end. I'm sure people are gonna find some way to blame it all on Trump personally.

On top of this, if the debate is "The USA wants to yank Greenland from Denmark", rather than "one colonial power is bickering with another over their slice of the pie", then I don't think that's going to lead to anything progressive.

It's funny when America's foreign bootlickers don't realize American Exceptionalism only applies to Americans. And even then, it doesn't apply to all Americans. They have no idea just how quickly the US will throw them under the bus, take their shit, and kill thousands of people just because the US knows it can.

And chuds will start frothing at the mouth with such fanatic energy at the chance to kill non-Americans. It doesn't matter if Morocco was the first country to recognize our independence. Or if France was our first ally. Or Mexico is one of our largest trading partners. Or if occupied Koreans would risk their lives to protect iPhone factories. Or that Saudi Arabia provides the US all kinds of logistical support.

You'll hear Americans and our politicians say the most ghoulish shit about any of the above. People say "maybe we should just nuke the entire Middle East and cut all relations with Mexico" on a regular basis with complete disregard for the consequences. Americans will shit in your fridge and expect you to thank them for the opportunity, then punch you in the mouth if you don't.
