the shit thing is i can actually see a path to the us annexing greenland.
i don't think it's terribly likely but it's also not the most unlikely thing he's ever suggested.

@greycat I've always discounted WW3 being started by the US because soft imperialism was working great and the actual people in power were too cunning to resolve to methods as brute, but here we are.

@hp@social.sdf.org that's just it, though, I doubt anything would actually happen, other than the US being kicked out of NATO. there would be a whole lotta bluster but military and economic action against the US are both unfeasible.

@greycat I would agree. I would also agree if you'd said China, Russia or who ever won't let it happen because they also want the resources. I don't know anymore. Sure, no one in their right mind would go up against the US militarily but no one's in their right minds anymore.
