That’s nothing compared to the many issues USA has.

Trump is a specialist in diversion tactics. You always need to remember it's always about him and never about anyone else (unless he has a grudge against them) I don't think he has a grudge against Denmark, so i think this is diversion

In my eyes it's very hard to get worse than censorship.

I disagree, but that’s your opinion and I respect that.

it's like everything, we all want freedom, but some censorship is necessary to protect children. The question really is where is the line drawn

Do you recall in the mid 00’s - we had sites like rotten.com and LiveLeak? They got taken down in a censorship move, which wasn’t a bad thing.

That's one of the reasons why I personally dislike censorship, because sinister Politicians will try to bring terrible laws forward because "think of the children" knowing that obviously most people don't want to see children being harmed by whatever the topic is about at that given time.

Obviously we can't have children accessing everything that an adult can access, but I see that as more common sense thinking rather than putting laws forward to try and find information out about your own citizens under the guise of "protect the kids."

Same here Benjamin.

After all I strongly agree with you that Trump is a very big problem for the world.

Trump and Putin will both be gone soon so they really arent the biggest threat. It's what comes after them that is the biggest threat

I’ve spoilered the below in case anyone doesn’t want to know as grim descriptions.

Spoiler:

Things like stories of a man who jumped out of a helicopter while blades still moving and photos of his head all smashed up, a kid trapping his hand in a meat grinder and the photos of his hand in it with the other part ground up like meat. Beaheadings were often on there too (like LiveLeak).

…I don’t recall rotten.com but LiveLeak links were something that were regularly posted on this site as I recall…very macabre…

Sky News text:
[The newspaper quotes Mr Trump's interview
with The Atlantic magazine,
in which he states: "We do need Greenland...
we need it for defence".]

New reports
Trump will pay each islander
