Wow USA, this one must hurt!!!
“We do not want to be rich like Americans. Look how greedy they are, even trying to invade their friends. We would not sell ourselves. We know what happened to Indigenous people in Alaska and Native Americans. Their land was taken, and they were not treated well.”
— Greenlandic politician Tillie Martinussen
That is not a throwaway jab, it is a full moral indictment. It flips the usual American self image on its head: wealth is not automatically admired, and power is not automatically respected. When someone says they would rather stay themselves than become “rich like Americans,” they are basically saying the brand is broken, and the history is part of the reason.

Spain’s PM at Columbia University:
“Defending your country is one thing. But killing 60,000 civilians, bombing hospitals, and starving children to death is something else entirely.”
“We are witnessing one of the darkest tragedies of the 21st century unfold before our eyes.”

Salamas was a female Indochinese tiger (Panthera tigris corbetti) who spent 20 years in captivity at a tiger farm in northern Thailand. She was repeatedly used for breeding, with her cubs feeding the illegal trade in tiger bones, skins, claws, and meat.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of the NGO 'Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand', Salamas was rescued from this life of suffering and relocated to a wildlife sanctuary. There, she finally experienced freedom, but only for 9 months before passing away. A slave for 20 years, and a tiger for just 9 months…
Tiger parts, like those of many other animals, hold NO proven medical value. We must all stand firm and united to end these cruel and senseless practices once and for all.

7 farmers were murdered in South Africa in 2024.
An average of 68 people are murdered in the United States every day.
53,528 Palestinians have died in Gaza, 80% of those civilian deaths.
Only one of these is genocide.
@AMAZlNGNATURE Stop sharing this video. They were the ones who were fishing and pulling the shark to shore to take the video and then incorrectly released it. It’s probably dead now. It’s all done for likes and 5 minutes if internet fame. Educate yourself
@piersmorgan Not killing 50000 people, blocking humanitarian aid, snipers shooting heavily pregnant woman crossing the road and bombing hospitals. Basically leveling entire Gaza with the ground so Israelis can land grab the entire area.
