Disagree. They messed up by not giving r2d2 force powers like deserves. Or at least a lightsaber. That's all anyone really wants. All r2 all the time.
Disney biggest Star Wars screw up though was that they did not give Star Wars fans the BIG reunion of the original 3. Mark Hamill could not believe it either.
If they thought that Star Wars was not about Luke Skywalker Disney were foolish and stupid.
LUKE IS STAR WARS.... HE ALWAYS WAS.

Ah...I see! Its an anti-assimilation thing. I didn't think about it but it makes sense that Denmark was trying to Danify Greenland.

One reason many folks no longer trust corporate media is because corporate media promotes the same talking points that defend billionaires & corporations & tell Americans to ignore their own eyes, ignore their own experiences & ignore data.

I apologize but while that is interesting as an anecdote, I am confused as to how that answers my question.

Being bilingual isn't special. Or hard. And just cuz a lot of us non native English speakers can speak English doesn't mean we want to live our lives doing it all the time. My grandfather could speak it, didn't mean he wanted to be be an English speaking [whatever career].

This is a cool thread and I don't want to crap on it, so could someone explain to me why speaking in your own language is modernizing your heritage or some form of protest? Isn't that just...the default? Its not like Rock and Roll doesn't exist globally (and it sure didn't develop anywhere but USA)
The fascinating thing about Greenlandic music is that it is clearly informed by popular music trends but they use it to spread their language, which outside of Greenland is basically unused.
It is their way of modernizing their heritage, a form of inclusive protest.

If you want to understand where a culture comes from, listen to their music.

This plan might work because I'm sure Trump doesn't know that Greenland is mostly Inuit.

Serbians must be overjoyed to learn of the EU's sudden commitment to territorial integrity and I am sure they eagerly await the subsequent statement from the EU affirming Kosovo's status as a part of Serbia. Right?

Couldn't politicians defuse this whole Greenland nonsense by simply promising to give it back once Trump leaves office?

As it turns out, the only reason "cats wouldn't be cops" is because they refuse to take orders and our vision of cops is dogs on leashes. But once you let cops do whatever they want, they quickly turn to rather cat like levels of cruelty and pain for its own sake. Just wrecking shit cuz its fun.
