COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — More than 350 Greenlandic Indigenous women and girls, including some 12 years old and younger, reported that they were forcibly given contraception by Danish health authorities in cases that date back to the 1960s, according to an independent investigation's findings released Tuesday.

Curious timing with the Right to Life activities in the US this week.

Will the “my body, my choice” crowd come to the defense of the Greenlanders?

The Danish didn’t want them reproducing.
Why?
Because they had no way to take care of them or protect them all anyway?
Screw Denmark…..they are disgusting.
They need to STFU about any hold they thought they had over the native Intuits.
And they out number any Europeans there by 89%

Its quite stomach churning.

Yet Margaret Sanger and her American eugenics buddies would’ve done the same thing.

Curious timing yes, but not I think for the Right to Life activities. More like trying to turn public opinion against the Danes in order to grease the skids on the Greenland deal.

The deep state is working overtime to churn up support for a full on invasion force. We can never overlook another WMD operation. Now we are stirring up phantom enemies said to invade in coming months that no one has even threatened, for a country we haven’t given a s h ! T about in literally decades all of a sudden is tops on our national security risk threat assessment.

And the neocons never skip a beat.

Greenland women and girls had their fallopian tubes removed by the fascist Danes.

Or set them adrift on an ice floe.

Amazing how many Danish sterilization stories have been posted on FR over the past weeks. Sometimes several a day. Like there's a concerted effort.

Why is Denmark's sterilization program relevant?

Trump wants Greenland, so we must "make the Danes look bad."

Why are the below stories not relevant?

Because they "make the Jooos look bad."

Israel Forcibly Injected African Immigrants with Birth Control, Report Claims.

Israel Admits Targeting Ethiopian Jews for Compulsory Contraception.

The thing is, the story is real (I knew about it from some years ago.) Whether it is an organic effort by Trump supporters pointing out the inhumanity of Denmark’s colonial administration, or a more centrally managed effort to do the same, it amounts to the same thing in the end. One would hope that an American administration would not adopt such collectivist, inhumane policies.

You’re saying that PBS is trying to help Trump.

Before we fall for such a transparent propaganda ploy, perhaps we should consider the log in our own eye:

The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male Dates: 1932–1972

In view of our own history, are we entitled out of misplaced moral superiority to invade another country?
