  1. Wasn’t this already discussed last week?

    Free

    40 hrs per week

    Must speak English, Danish and Greenlandic

  2. Unpaid internships in geopolitically tense regions?

    That’s quite the mix of diplomacy and irony Greenland’s getting interesting attention lately.

  3. Unpaid interns and annexation talk feels like satire but somehow it’s real life politics.

  4. Don’t worry that is not hostile US behaviour, unpaid labor is considered normal over there.

    Just think of all the opportunities it unlocks for you. /s

  5. Unpaid Greenland internship? That’s just working for exposure to hypothermia.

  6. If you put Putin and Trump in a sack and start beating it with a stick, your always going to strike the right one.

  7. Unpaid interns in Greenland while annexation talk swirls feels more like a dark comedy script than real policy.

  8. Unpaid internships are normal in the usa. Article says it’s normal in denmark too.

    This isn’t a sign of anything but their terrible attitude towards workers.

  9. Bringing in American labor laws and practices… to a place that is not in America… that usually doesn’t work.

  10. “we are looking for locals who would be willing to betray their country and people, but we need to do it on the cheap”

  11. It’s so Greenlandic people can get used to american corporatie culture.

  12. Why the fuck isn’t the EU taking the threat of annexation and the US openly proclaiming intent to destroy it seriously? At what point do we start treating the country that has repeatedly threatened us as hostile?

  13. Didn’t Trump say that Greenlanders would become rich if they were a part of USA? Not off to a great start there

  14. I’m really perplexed. What’s the real motive for wanting Greenland?

  15. they are looking for Danish speakers, Denmark should keep track who applies and keep a close eye on the individuals

  16. If you gonna want locals to work with you to betray their people and country… You gonna have to pay them 

  17. Must be some really bad shit in the latest trove of Epstein files.

  18. No. We don’t “have to have it”. Trump is nuts.

  19. Ran into something like this during university (eastern european here). Basically you would write articles on propaganda websites and respond on reddit/social media/forums to users trying to sway their opinion to fit a given narrative 

  20. well, anexation helps USA to defends itself. Where did i listen this argument before? lol

  21. Those interns cannot be found, they would be jailed for high treason. That’s what happens in countries that do have laws

  22. Unpaid interns, lmao. They are already showing Greenlanders what the US has to offer them.
