LOL look at the smart horseshoe theory guy here!

We're fund of him bcs he fucks up your imperialist country.

It's a thing of beauty and no decent human being in the world can be against that.

Tankies dislike Trump far more than democrats (who share his ideology: western-supremacy, liberalism, and capitalism) ever could. We're just glad he's hastening the US empire's decline at a faster rate than expected, and that he's more honest about it.

There are not only Danish people, but Denmark has the most reason to boycott the US, because the Trump plan to invade Greenland, which is Danish territory. Most EU countries and also other are avoiding more and more US products. The world has enough alternatives to US prodocts, often even better ones, but the US don't have alternatives to needed products from the rest of the world. A wall always works from both sides, but Trump is too stupid to understand this. In less than a half year the US citizens are in front of empty shelfes.

~~I'd read this, but my eyes have been gouged out by Basil II Porphyrogenitus.~~

I went with the first non-feared modern group that I thought of causing historical trouble, but maybe some random Muslim empire would have been better. The point was just that their military achievements were nothing special. Vikings had their day and then it was over, basically. To be fair, they were *really good* boats, that took them all kinds of crazy places, and that's half of the reason why we're talking about them. (The other half being nationalistic shilling from later Germanic people)

Pretty much every steppe nomad culture was OP before the early modern period; from the Turks to the Cumans to the Huns to the proto-Indo-Europeans. And of course the Mongols. Honestly I'm still not sure why.

Bulgarian khan drank wine from the cup made from the skull of Byzantine emperor, vikings served the Byzantine emperors. I see skill issue here.

Do you think that someone invoking the highly mythologized spectre of their millennium-dead predecessors amounts to anything but an embarassing admission that they themselves have accomplished little of note?

u/CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org · 21 points

I mean, the TV version mostly is. The real guys were cattle farmers with good boats. They did raids and stuff, but so did the Bulgarians. And yeah, the "blood" means nothing.

Bloomcole is just projecting and a hypocrite. He seems to be showing symptoms of early dementia.

While most of us condemn bad action of every country equally. He cheers on russia bad behaviours, russia facism, russia nazism behaviour, committing genocide and expanding its territories while condemning every other country doing the same.

Old Gray bloomcole even cheers on putin who is more interested in posing half naked for camera. Bloomcole falls easily for KGB putin propaganda, example, nazis in Ukraine so we need to expand russia territories.

And what shithole would that be in your infantile imagination?

Also Putin is fighting the ukronazis, if you like those so much maybe go and volunteer.

The aid to the Banderites is still going so I'm sure they'll have a nice body bag for you.

Why? Do you see the dump trump is taking and think " I want that with Maple"?

There is ONE link to YT and this is from Mark Felton, a renouned historian that has worked for the BBC, Hisory channel and author of many books.

Your feeble attempt at attacking that source bcs he has a YT channel is nothing more than pathetic.

Everything I posted here is factual and verifiable.

I suggest you get some basic standards when trying to make a point.

But this is apparently all you got and you have nothing to refute them except insults.

So you and that silly flag you so proudly have on your profile can get stuffed.

I hope you go down with your twin big brother.

Try not to murder too much indigenous people on your way out.

u/TwinTitans@lemmy.world · 3 points

Well you sir, can go get stuffed. I suggest getting your information from another source other than YouTube.

Canada in its current state certainly is a shit hole however, things can change.

Election coming up, all we can do is hope that a competent party takes control.

No, not better.

I asked what the so-called European values were, the orange fascist cunt has nothing to do with it.

u/DonJuaves@lemmy.world · 7 points

I am proud to see Europe and Canada growing closer. Our shared values unite us, and I wish you all the best 🇪🇺🇨🇦🇩🇰

Jesus christ, I thought not shutting up about your "viking blood" was just a white American thing

Trump’s policies have “brought the Danish Viking blood boiling,” said Jens Olsen, an electrician and carpenter. He is now considering replacing $10,000 worth of U.S.-made DeWalt power tools even though it will cost him a lot.

That'll show the darn Cheeto in the white house. It's as stupid as back in the 1990's even people bought French wine to pour out on the streets in protest over French nuclear tests.

“with fervor” “viking blood” please shut the fuck up lol. the reality in denmark is incredibly relaxed. all we’ve done is put a symbol on the groceries that are EU-owned. this title makes me want to unalive myself as a dane

u/CitizenBane@lemmy.world · 4 points

I want to move to Copenhagen soon. I think once I get there, I'll tell the Danes I'm Canadian instead of American.

u/Bloomcole@lemmy.ml · 4 points

LOL the Danes were such good US/NATO bootlickers.

They must feel really betrayed.

I hope Donnie does the Dutch next.

Can't wait to see the face of that mumbling fool Rutte when it happens.

u/TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works · 3 points

I mean...

step 1) teach your kids about Leopold and repair that shit.

step 2) actually do some shit about the US instead of lip service?

idk
