I am Danish and have been to Greenland. This is seriously impressive, because the people of Greenland are the absolute nicest I have ever met.
Story time: I was getting a lift from a local on his boat, when we passed a small dingy out in the middle of nowhere. The two Greenlanders (a mother and son) in the dingy waved us over to show us all the salmon and cod they had caught. Then they refused to let us leave, before giving us half of their fishy riches. The mother told us “if you had a giant apple tree in your garden, wouldn’t you share the apples with all your townsfolk”.

I fucking love Greenland and their people.
Tolerance Paradox.
Part of being truly nice is being not nice to people who are not nice.
That sounds more like enabling than being nice. It can be nice to be honest and confront someone when they are being an asshole.
You seem to have misread the comment you’re replying to. It has two "not"s in it, and you missed one of them.
Totally did, you’re a champ for the correction. Thank you :)
Yep. As Bob Dylan eloquently said “don’t have nothing at all except hatred”
