this is in Shakespeare

I’ve never heard of him til now but Wikipedia says he was anti-communist and communists were anti-him


threads like these can keep you in the dark for months at a time


I am just a simple lemmy user trying to navigate these rocky waters.


lots of salt spraying around


You’re focusing on one tiny mention rather than the post in its totalitarianism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BABL1y5xNxQ&t=49


seems like a rather woolly issue


I am not saying you are doing anything wrong
Not me but k.
I read the post as having almost nothing to do with Greenland. Obviously Greenland has a very different culture (Inuit) to the one described (Norse/Celt/Germanic)


Those outfits are not precolonial. They are explicitly a product of colonialism. Greenland does not have access to the resources necessary for the production of that garment which made the the inclusion of certain motifs and materials a status symbol, further many of the patterns and symbols involved were based on colonial exchange (And sadly most of the symbolism is dying out)
But it obviously wasn’t meant to be about precolonial Greenland…
interesting approach
