I didn’t expect to get upset today and I didn’t expect Martin to have tears in his eyes. Even if you don’t agree, if you’re a parent I hope you can appreciate where I’m coming from.
As my Great Grandma said: don’t let anyone tell you war is good or glamorous. It is hell.
i wish all greenlanders blessing in their fight for independence
icelanders are extremely relieved that they managed to break from the danish in 1944 ,
we didn´t loose our language ( my children would be speaking danish now )
and i burst with sympathy for greenlanders , repeatedly ,
especially like when the case came up about the forced contraception ,
where 4500 girls as young as 12 got IUD without their knowledge between 1966 and 1970

4500 girls as young as 12 were fitted
.... they are my age and younger ... childless ....
and still today the danish are treating greenlanders like they are second class humans

removing children from their parents in 2025 !
colonialism has repeatedly given me horror chills up my back ,
and the chance that my fellow greenlanders might go from one cruel coloniser to another
is too brutal to even imagine .
"úr öskunni í eldinn" , like we say in icelandic
dear greenlanders
declare independence !!!!
sympathetic wishes from your neighbours

@wynneevans @Mrs_katjones What was the joke, exactly? That you'd pretend to grope your dancing partner on live TV, and she'd pretend to be pissed off with you? Not buying it for one second. StCD and BBC should be ashamed of how this has been handled.
@chrissteinplays A guy set set himself alight and burnt himself to death in Washington protesting the Genocide and it was in the news for about 1.5 days. Non-violent direct action against property has worked before, and will do again. You just need to keep doing it.
@WestWalesWizard@LSRPlaid@HackneyAbbott She said that a black person experienced racism differently to an Irish, Jewish or a Roma person. She claimed black people experience racism ‘all their lives’. Have a little think why that may be the case.
From Carlingford, Ireland, home to Joe Biden's maternal ancestors, Irish citizens send an indignant St. Patrick's Day message to the US president:
"Because of our history, the Irish people will never forgive those who enable the oppression and ethnic cleansing and genocide of another people, as you have done... You have betrayed your Irish ancestors as you have betrayed humanity."
