Replying To TheFlaker: "They had a poll in Greenland to ask the people. 85% of people don't want to be part of the U.S. 9 % undecided. But you read a post on here somewhere saying they are not happy. Amazing." They had a poll in 2019 and 67.8% wanted to leave Denmark within the following two decades so it's fair to say while they don't want to join US they may not be happy to remain under danish rule.
But go on jump down someone genuine post
Stats lie liars use statistics

Your percentages are worthless dont relate to what poster said which is Greenlanders want independence from Denmark which is overwhelming true

Around 56% want independence 28% want to remain with Denmark 17% are undecided.
Did you not read full piece? Amazing
You are comparing apples with pomegranate

Replying To PressureKick: "I feel like every thread I click into on here it's Mayo fans arguing with fans of some county or other
Kind of resembles what you'd hear over the years in the real world also. Were once everyone's "second team" as most wanted to see them win one but a small section of the fanbase have turned a lot of people against them over time. Il emphasize small section again, as most seem completely grand" I have had a few problems with Mayo fans over the years but most of em on here seem grand bar one muppet who the Mayo contributors dont even like.

Replying To REDANDBLACK30: "Yes I would definitely be a Socialist because I think the greed and wealth disparities under capitalism are too vast . Socialism is very good system and can work well China is booming but I accept it failed in the USSR probably it was not implemented well there as it collapsed. The concept of socialism is just. Capitalism in China with a population of over one billion would be a bad fit given the wealth disparities it creates if the elite had all the money there could be widespread poverty." "The concept of socialism is just", I imagine the 20 million Uyghurs living in China would beg to differ. I don't suppose you can buy copies of "Animal Farm" in China.

Replying To BarneyGrant: "There's a variety of opinions and have been on among Dublin players, As I'm sure there are on all teams, county and club,
You just don't hear maybe about well known AI winners who certainly are not 'Woke' on issues such as abortion, immigration etc, They don't and haven't used their jersey to preach on them." BarneyGrant that is the best piece of text I've ever read on this forum. They do say that empty vessels make the most noise

Replying To sligo joe: "According to today's Irish Times, Ger Brennan has said he will not conduct interviews etc if there are allianz banners etc in the background, if this Irish Times report is correct you say this is grandstanding so you are saying Brennan is an insincere, self- promoting attention seeker. I don't agree, I believe Brennan has the individual right to refuse to stand by the logo and I accept his sincerety in making the decision." I never mentioned anything about Brennan but as you bring it up do you know that Dublin GAA management get sponsored cars from Peugeot and Peugeot have strong links to Israel.

Replying To Commodore: "I thought you were chatting about Ireland for a minute there, We are getting as bad as any other place, with the Revenue gestapo watching every citizens bank and CU account like hawks and trying to hide information of what Irish citizens are entitled to claim tax exemptions on.
As for China, how they run their Country is their own business, most Chinese people abroad are quite happy with how their Country is run, most Countries around the world have brutally suppressed uprisings or rival political viewpoints, even Ireland." The vast majority if Chinese people have no say at all in how the country is run.
And if you think the way Revenue monitor tax is like Social Credit based on total surveillance of every single aspect of a Chinese persons life then you ought read something about it.
The tens of millions murdered were not part of any rebellion by the way. They were victims of a random terrorist regime. Which still rules through mass internment, murder, torture and genocide.

Replying To TheFlaker: "From what you hear? You chat to many Greenlanders on a weekly basis ?" You are correct south Galway 67.8% in 2019 said they would like independence within 20 years
In 2008 they had earmarked 2021.
So while they overwhelmingly don't want to join USA this doesn't mean they are happy in current scenario
No i can depart again after having to put the ego back in their box

Definitely a new look to the Dubs team/squad...:
Comerford
Murchan McMahon Byrne
Shaw Doran Kennedy
Dunne Lahiff
McGinnis Scully Howard
Small Con O'Dell
subs:
O'Sullivan, McEneaney, O'Callaghan, Tyrrell, White, O'Connor, Stephenson, Breathnach, Guiden, Bugler & Lundy.
Hopefully a 2 point shooter in there somewhere... ;o)" That is a strong team and fair play to Ger.While giving some new lads a chance he still keeping a strong unit and obviously want s to do well in the league.I think we will see a huge improvement in our two pointers this year and yes a few lads selected well able to take two pointers.Con,Scully,Howard and Paddy Small to name a few.A Win against Donegal would be nice and take a bit of pressure off.

Strong looking team." It is. Championship team won't looks hugely different. A win down there - not beaten them since 1927 in league i saw! - be huge start and potentially path to winning the division.

Replying To S1234: "Ah ye are turning into a bunch of yerras like kerry ! There is about 8 starters on there and 2 starters on the bench including walsh and at home to it's yours to loose saÿ ye are one of the favourites for sam to .." You've spent the winter basically calling Galway (and other teams) overrated, while also bigging up mayo and their new management at every opportunity.
Now the time comes that Mayo have had a great prep with a warm weather training camp, and Galway look a bit all over the shop, and yet suddenly Galway should be favorites and should be winning?
Which is it? Who do you believe is a better team and county at the moment?

Show a bit more respect to great teams and players like Dublin who have won plenty in future." Yet you felt it ok to take one of our players years ago and you speak about respect thanks so so much.
I have shown no disrespect here to Dublin thanks and please- where have I done so?? Point it out for me, thanks in advance for this.
Please check your Grammar, thanks for that, in particular the use of your tenses as you seem a little confused, much appreciated

No one is disputing Greenlanders don't want to be part of USA
From what I can see the poster was referring to unhappiness with danish rule and looking for Independence
Maybe let them confirm that and not speak for them
