They'll be going full China and make it a crime to deface the dear leader.

Yes, sure, and I'm not trying to defend or downplay the story. I'm just sharing the info that is otherwise only available in Danish.
The past was indeed a horrible time. Social experiments like these happened in many places worldwide. Similar things have happened in America, Russia, China, Brazil, France, Germany. All of which were done because people thought it was a great idea at the time.
Although the damage cannot be undone, at least these women will now receive an apology and some kind of compensation for the wrong-doing.
I do find the timing of the stories very peculiar in light of America's desire to take control of Greenland.
Earlier this year we had the story about displacement of children, now this, and I predict that next you'll probably hear about the racist hiring practices in the military, which also occured in the past on Greenland.
All of these happened almost half a century ago or more. There has been plenty of time to bring it up. I am happy that they do bring it up, so it can be redeemed as best as possible, but I do find the timing very convenient for certain people outside the kingdom who is currently interested in sowing division.
I agree it was wrong, and it was probably also illegal at the time happened.
For context:
It was done to avoid an explosive population increase which happened in the 60s.
At the time, Greenland had the worlds highest birth rate, despite having access to free contraceptives like condoms and pills, of which information campaigns had obviously failed. A lot of the births were given by teenagers aged 15-20 outside of marriage. Infant mortality also hit records with about 1/3 of the total number of deaths on Greenland being infants. I should note though that Greenland does not have a much higher statistics of inbreeding than elsewhere, despite rumours.
However, something had to be done to lower the number of unwanted pregnancies. The humanitary organization Mødrehjælpen (mothers help) did a test run with volunteers and it gave a positive result.
At the moment it is unclear who or why it was decided to roll out the forced spirals. An investigation of that is happening currently.
Utrolig flot tekst, synes jeg.
Hæderligt arrangement og ok lyd. Men.. ja udtalen er stadigvæk lidt umenneskelig, sammenhængen mellem tekst og melodiens rytme er anderledes end et menneske ville have lavet osv., men værst af alt: Det er jo kedeligt musik. Du har valgt dansktop og resultatet er vel forventeligt derefter, fair nok, men der mangler ligesom stadigvæk noget variation og ikke mindst hit potentiale. Noget som gør at man genkender nummeret ud af mængden.
Nu smider jeg lige en her:
I en af verdens ellers mest forudsigelige rock sange "Guns'n'Roses - Paradise City" er der en fodbold-dommer-fløjte lige inden omkvædet, kl. 1:20.
Det er helt genialt. Har du nogensinde tænkt over at en dommerfløjte ikke er et musikinstrument? Hvem har fundet på det? Hvem spiller på den? Hvor kom ideen fra? Hvorfor er der ikke andre (kendte) sange med dommerfløjte? Kunne en AI have fundet på den ide?
Min pointe er at det er lige meget hvor dygtig AI er til at efterligne lyd. Det er også lige meget hvor dygtig du selv er til at spille guitar. Kunsten er at skabe noget som er nyt.
Humanistic psychology has a way to describe things in very long and broad manners that might sell a lot of books to schools, but contain very little practical information.
Also, they often use specific terms that can mean one thing in psychology but means something completely different to anyone in any other field, who have not studied the exact psychology book that they're referencing.
It's a lot simpler than described on wikipedia, and you do not have to discuss feelings with your co-workers.
The point of including your own feelings in the sentence is to turn to the topic away from fruitless chasing of logical arguments where there are none or they are irrelevant. It's about taking personal ownership of the problem, so that you don't claim that it is the other persons problem, even if they are the one who needs to do something in order to solve it.
Well, that was fucking waste of time for everyone.

The history list was most interesting in my opinion.

It's hard to believe that they can watch full videos in a lunch break.
Jeg har ellers altid været fortaler for at de unges naive håb skulle have større politisk indflydelse på fremtiden, men nu frygter jeg i større grad at de vil blive polariseret af internettet i en tidlig alder.
Evnerne til at samarbejde, indgå i dialog og lave kompromis med forskellige mennesker er noget man først rigtigt lærer på arbejdsmarkedet, når man ikke længere går på skoler og uddannelser med andre med samme baggrund. Hvis man overhovedet lærer det..
That's unbelievable. The Greeks won't steal anybody's jobs.
