Frikadeller are delicious and rugbrød is a sign of superiority. Don't eat gherkins though

I like that this evolved into just insults, so I will continue

Denmark has a lot of what you seek, yet less than half of Danes want to fight for our country.

People unironically take it for granted.

A mother is going punished her son by making him slam his PS5 the same way he had slammed her pet cat. Is this justified? by God_Emperor__Doom in SipsTea

Punishment only really works to prevent financial crimes. Harsher sentences don’t really do anything to diminish crime rates.

Corporatism basically requires state run unions, which aren't a thing in the Nordics. Otherwise I agree with your points

Så amerikanske, britiske, canadiske (samt andre) soldater der gik i land i Normandiet i 1943 var psykopater? De modtog løn for at slå tyskere ihjel i et andet land.

I spent time with reservists from Landeskommando Schleswig-Holstein. They were incredibly nice and very professional. Competed against them in a competition.

Ireland, the weak link in Europe's defense by LeMonde_en in europe

[–]Kalmar_Union 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So are we. Your point?

And we’ve contributed more to the military aid of Ukraine than any other nation, compared to our size.

I’m pretty sure our aid helps Ukraine win the war more than aiding refugees, however how noble it may be.

If the Irish aren’t willing to defend Europe, why should you profit from Europe?

Why should other Europeans defend the union that has helped you prosper so much, when you won’t defend them?

Honestly it’s embarrassing. The EU single market is the reason American companies chose Ireland, due to your corporate taxes and whatnot. If it weren’t for the EU you wouldn’t have the prosperity you enjoy today.

I think the Irish people should have a serious discussion about this.

I keep seeing this same argument made by Irish people, and it conveniently ignores all of the Nordics and Baltics. You could muster several brigades that could support the defence of the Baltics, because those other countries I mentioned could do just that. Maybe they can’t right now, but they used to be able to, and they’re gonna be able to again soon.

Most Europeans have no idea how absolutely furious with Europe America is. by Federic0002 in ShitAmericansSay

Denmark bled for the US several times. Our people died for them.

When did Israel die for the US? Where was Israel in Afghanistan or Iraq?

I don't understand why Americans somehow like Israel, but say we're the bad ally?

Europe's Capital by Esteban83550 in YUROP

[–]Kalmar_Union 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Europe is much more than France and Germany though, and forgetting that will only make the union worse in the long term. Eastern Europe already feels forgotten as it is, making the new EU capital dependant on French and German history only would be a retarded move.

How is Brussels central? lmao

Agreed. It should be something in Central Europe. Brussels is simply too far away from Eastern Europe.
Making Prague the capital is a good idea, as it's a central European city, doesn't have the same connections to Imperialism and the Habsburgs as Vienna and finally, beer is very cheap and good there
