I'm sure you are well versed on all the illegitimate states that exist in the world. Why not pick on them too?

In fact I suspect that the number of states occupied and run by indigenous people could be written on the back of a postage stamp

It seems that the Beatles invasion of the USA would not happen now, https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ained-deported

I have heard of one person who was offered a number of gigs in the US following a successful SxSW festival and has since been advised by his agent, along with others, not to travel there again under the current climate.

So much darkly worrying stuff happening over there. This, for example...

I do pick on other such injustices, including but not limited to, such injustices here in Canada.

The reason it was talked about here is because I was replying to Jampies comments on the Signal leak scandal.

That?s exactly what it means; that a people with similar political ambitions can create their own independent government or state.

You think that states can only become independent if the state from which they are seeking independence agrees?

Greenland: So what's the play here? My guess, Russia starts a build up towards Greenland; Trump builds up troops and "rescues" Greenland persuading them to become the 51st state; Russia and Trump agree to share the spoils as a peace deal. Denmark pulls its hair out whilst the rest of Europe waves their arms in indignation.

The narrative coming out of the White House beats anything coming out of the Kremlin hands down. How can we make MEGA happen? (Make America Go Away?)

Wouldn't that still be MAGA?

Trump seems focused on MADA - Make America Despised Again.

Wrong question. Should be "is there ANY sanity in the trump family line"!
