OP can you post the translated article in the comments for approval?
Americans have always been terrible people
If you’re going to get outraged about a comedian taking the piss you’re going to spend your life outraged.
My hate and disgust is growing daily coming to Americans. Thank you for that
man, the MAGA cult is fucking gross
Did something happen to Americans to cause them to develop such contempt for Europe or is this something that they’ve always felt but kept hidden out of political correctness or political expediency?
As an American, I assure you most people in America do not laugh at Greenland, and even more couldn’t find it on a map. We deserve so much virtriol and disdain right now, 100% true, but please don’t conflate “conservative comedy” (which is an oxymoron) with “American TV.” There are plenty of us trying to fight this fascist bullshit every day.
Translation:
**Greenlanders are something you laugh at on American TV – here is what Trump’s voters get served
Greenland is now something we talk about on conservative American TV channels. It happens with lots of alternative facts.**
What does Donald Trump’s core voters really know about Greenland when they turn on the television?
> Denmark has admitted that they cannot defend Greenland- Carla Sands, former US ambassador to Denmark
Lately, we’ve heard a lot about what the president himself thinks, and at the same time, Greenland has also become a topic that viewers of conservative channels like Fox News, Newsmax and One America News Network are being served stories about.
The number of interviews about Greenland was increased after US Vice President JD Vance and his wife decided to go on an unofficial visit to the island, which has created a diplomatic crisis between the US and the rulers of Nuuk and Copenhagen.
Here on TV 2 we have looked at how the conservative American broadcasters cover the conflict and how the Greenlandic people whom Donald Trump would like to submit to are mentioned.
**Stone Age people**
Tuesday had the TV channel Newsmax for example, a visit by the former US ambassador to Denmark Carla Sands.
> They lived under Stone Age-like conditions- Carla Sands, former US ambassador to Denmark
She told viewers that Denmark sees Donald Trump’s desire to take over Greenland as “common sense”.
> I believe that Denmark has admitted that they cannot defend Greenland. They can’t secure it. Internally, they even make fun of not being able to defend their own small country, Denmark. I think they see it as common sense, Carla Sands said, adding that she is unsure how the government in Denmark will respond to Donald Trump’s specific offer that the world has not yet seen.
According to Carla Sands, Denmark cannot afford to “develop” Greenland, and she said that, in her opinion, things went much better with Greenland, as the United States was present without Danish interference during World War II.
> We actually occupied Greenland during World War II. We had about 5000 soldiers there, which is when Greenland’s population was 20,000. All the development in Greenland was due to our occupation for decades. We made them live in more modern conditions rather than living under Stone Age-like conditions because of Denmark’s oppression of the people, Carla Sands said.
**Alternative facts**
The envoy’s host Rob Finnerty seized the reference to the occupation of Greenland during World War II and compared the situation today with the war against Nazity country:
> During World War II, it was a necessary strategic move because German submarines attacked thousands of Allied ships from the United States as they tried to get to Europe. So we had to do it. Here we are now 80 years later and we may have to do it again.
*The TV channel Newsmax has interviewed Carla Sands, ambassador to Denmark during Trump’s first presidential term. She says the Danes may well see the reason for Trump’s desire to annex Greenland.
Rob Finnerty also suggested that Denmark should deliver Greenland because the Danes do not fulfill their obligations to NATO.*
> Denmark is a NATO country, but a small one. They haven’t contributed 2 percent of their GDP in defense yet, that’s something Donald Trump has been talking about for the past eight years. Could this be a way to contribute? Donating Greenland for Freedom? asked Rob Finnerty.
“I’m not sure they look at it that way,” said Carla Sands, but during the interview she made it clear that she believes that among the Greenlandic people there is “interest and appetite” for the US to govern Greenland .
She did not mention the big demonstrations against the US in Nuuk and elsewhere in Greenland, and before we change the TV channel, we probably also have to point out that Denmark actually lived up to NATO’s 2 percent target in 2024, that no one in the Danish government has publicly called Trump’s plans for “common sense” and that many Greenlanders probably disagree, that their captive culture in the mid-20th century can be described as “stone age-like conditions”.
**A wink with the eye**
However, the interview with Carla Sands is not the only thing where alternative descriptions of the Greenlandic people are used in American television.
> When they freeze their ass in a tuktuk, or whatever it is called in Greenland, we show them what it looks like in Miami in December, and then they’re on board- Andrew Schulz, guest in talk show on Fox News
On March 17, the topic “Greenland” was taken up in the talk show ‘The Will Cain Show’ on Fox News.
Here, host Will Cain had invited comedian Andrew Schulz to talk about current events.
“The idea of taking land has really been fun again,” said Andrew Schulz.
> Really funny, Will Cain said, adding:
>
> Who doesn’t want Greenland?
>

Then he tried to be funny.
“No, we shouldn’t go ashore,” he said, and then he turned his face to the camera and blinked emphatically with one eye – probably as a signal that you can say a lot under the pretext of not being serious .
*On Fox News, comedian Andrew Schultz is happy about the Greenlanders, saying he is a supporter of conquering land.*
**’Hearts and memories’**
Immediately after, the comedian made it clear that he thinks Greenland should be part of the United States.
> What an upgrade. Do we know what the Greenlanders think? asked Andrew Schulz afterwards.
“There are 50,000 of them,” said study host Will Cain, shaking his head.
Then he suggested converting the Greenlanders with political advertising.
> Even if they don’t like it, even if they don’t want it, it’s just a big Super Pac advertising flash, and everything is fine, Will Cain said.
> I think it would convince them. Hearts and memories. We’ll show them Miami in December. When they freeze their ass in a tuktuk, or whatever it is called in Greenland, we show them what it looks like in Miami in December, then they’re on board, Andrew Schulz said.
*On American Fox News, studio host Will Cain and comedian Andrew Schultz laugh at a possible conquest of Greenland.*
> What do they have over there, are they minerals? continued Andrew Schulz.
> That’s what you say. They have plenty of land, but most of it is covered with ice, Will Cain replied, stressing that he likes the idea that the United States should have more land.
> I like to conquer, replied Andrew Schulz and started laughing.
“They’re only 50,000,” Will Cain said with a broad laugh.
who wants to bet that very soon the EU will be called the NU (Nazi Union) by the MAGAts?
Americans might be worse than russians bc the americans actually wanted a crazy rapist moron to run their country
The way the anchor says « there is only 50’000 of them » and then laughs in an evil way, sends chills down my spine. Sounds so much like a war crime preparation
That comedian is VILE and should be cancelled. This is not a good example of ‘Americans.’ I watched 3 minutes of his comedy show on Netflix before being so disgusted about the way he spoke about his own wife during her pregnancy and child that I was nearly vomiting🤮 He’s HORRIBLE in every way, racist, misogynistic, homophobic and nothing coming out of his mouth is good.
Any historian could tell you that the US administration is preparing for an illegitimate invasion.
This is standard procedure. Discredit, humiliate, dehumanize your “enemy”. The domestic population needs to see them as something lesser than themselves, so they won’t bat an eye when you tell them to commit war crimes against them.
I’d go to war for you,greenlanders.
Love from Sweden.
I used to have to watch this kind of stuff on Russian TV with subtitles. At least I can listen to it in English now.
So dehumanisation before invasion, huh?
Straight out of the Russian playbook.
It’s grotesque. Americans should be ashamed
Can we please not have daily US BS updates on here.???
There’s gotta be other news.
I hate how they are talking about the loss of human live like it is some joke. This shit makes me sick to my stomach. Let people fucking live their lives in peace.
I’m waiting for Russian and American TV personalities to make a show together about the glory expansionism .
A few months ago I visited a museum exhibition about Greenland. One part of the exhibition was about their natural resources and the increased geographical significance once more ice melts away and paves way for new shipping routes for example. I left the exhibition with a bad feeling because this is just a recipe for disaster. In no way did I believe that it would only take a few months for this bullshit to kick off, even less so that the US would be the first to lay claim on Greenland
Andrew Schultz the chicken hawk we need
Greenlanders and Greenland aren’t a group or a country that Americans think about at all. Not in a negative light, not in a positive light, just not at all.
Until Donald Trump decided that Greenland was the most important thing of all time, Greenland was less significant in the American zeitgeist than Madagascar, which was at least the name of an animated movie.
Always remember MAGA members, even years later you should spit on them. They should be declared mentally ill, a threat for society and therefore lost their right to vote, for lifetime.
I mean everything is satire and a joke over there. And the crazy part is it actually works to make very important topics into subject of laughter when there is really very little to joke about…
