1. El Colonialismo Danés y el Deseo de Independencia Groenlandesa.
Muchos ven la relación de Dinamarca con Groenlandia como un legado colonial problemático, mientras que los groenlandeses buscan cada vez más la autonomía y la independencia.
- The history of danish colonialism in greenland is complex and extremely problematic.
- Greenlanders may have something to say. They've fought hard for their autonomy. Because colonialism, no matter which, sucks.
- Most greenlanders want to be independent and i think you guys need to pay them reparations as they gain independence. There's literally nothing you can say to make me think there is such a thing as benevolent colonialism.
2. El Interés de Estados Unidos y las Acusaciones de Neocolonialismo.
El interés de Estados Unidos en Groenlandia, especialmente durante la administración Trump, ha sido interpretado por muchos como una forma de neocolonialismo, generando rechazo tanto en Groenlandia como a nivel internacional.
- Greenland belongs to the greenlanders and no one else! trump and his cronies are mentally living in the age of colonialism.
- Annexation of greenland would be modern day colonialism straight up. The population is mainly inuit peoples and since 2009 have been granted eventual independence from denmark.
- Trump's push to annex greenland exposes the ongoing legacy of colonialism and imperial overreach. Greenlanders seek independence, not us or danish control.
3. La Perspectiva Inuit y la Lucha por la Autodeterminación.
La población inuit de Groenlandia es central en el debate, buscando preservar su cultura y recursos, y resistiendo cualquier forma de dominación externa.
- People who hate trump, is 90% inuit. The fact that denmark rules greenland is colonialism. Greenland should not belong to denmark or america, it should be independent.
- Guessing that colonialism is what happens when the united states and denmark talk about greenland without having a single inuit voice in that conversation.
- Threatening to invade greenland -- where nearly 90% of the population is inuit -- is a continuation of the worst aspects of the history of u.s. Settler colonialism against indigenous peoples. It is unconscionable to even consider it.
4. Recursos Naturales y la Sombra del Extractivismo Colonial.
La riqueza en recursos naturales de Groenlandia es un factor clave en las discusiones sobre su futuro, con el temor de que la independencia pueda llevar a una explotación por parte de intereses capitalistas.
- Some pro-independence politicians in greenland do not seem shocked by trump's statements. They could find support there for their desire to free themselves from danish tutelage. From one colonialism to another, offering your land to extractive capitalism, mmh, where's the gain?
- So what vance is saying is that they want to take over and strip mine greenland. Colonialism 101.
- The musk/trump greenland push is colonialism defined. Nyt [trump] appears to covet greenland both for its strategic location at a time when the melting of arctic ice is opening new commercial and naval competition and for its reserves of rare earth minerals needed for advanced technology.
5. El Legado del Colonialismo y la Necesidad de Reparación.
Se reconoce la necesidad de abordar el legado del colonialismo danés, incluyendo la reparación por abusos pasados y el apoyo a la autodeterminación de Groenlandia.
- Yes, denmark have been very bad in its colonialism. We try to heal the suffering of the past. We are trying to have a sound separation process.
- Most greenlanders want to be independent and i think you guys need to pay them reparations as they gain independence.
- I didn’t say greenland was a colony, i said i hope we talk about danish colonialism which is how, for example, denmark could grant greenland home rule to begin with.
