Protesters clashed with police in The Hague at the rally demanding tougher migration policies. Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders has condemned the unrest, calling the rioters “idiots.”
This is so funny. They were so scared of antifa counter protests so they invited football hooligans as protection. But no counter protesters showed up. So it was just fascists and pumped up hooligans. And cops. Guess what’s gonna happen? They show their colours, they fucked up. Big time. Bunch of pussies.
I’m Dutch, I saw people taking the train going there.
Dutch assholes when the country they colonized and pillaged dares to immigrate to Europe:
It’s kind of insane, because I have been going around Amsterdam museums this week to see what the hype is all about, and all of them do SUCH a good job addressing the colonialism of the Dutch. How tf are these guys not getting it
I think the Venn diagram of people who are far right and people who visit museums is just two separate circles
I mean, true. I guess the dichotomy is jarring to me personally lol.
My beloved Netherlands what are you doing? :(
Anti-immigration rhetoric has been pushed HARD in Dutch society lately. Random Dutch people I followed on social media suddenly start talking about how white people are being replaced and never commit violent crimes. It’s clear the global right wing media engine is dumping resources into expanding their electoral successes in the Netherlands. Dutch right wingers are dumb as fuck, so they are swallowing the propaganda whole hog.
Sounds like something Russia would be very invested in - I mean the right-wing propaganda and causing chaos across Europe. It terrifies me those idiots are being played just like that:(
I mean, there has been this contingent for decades in NL. The flames are just being fanned by the expected folks now.
Just your typical peaceful blackshirts:
For some, this is not activism. It’s not protesting. It’s just about causing mayhem. They hate cops because they have a problem with authority in general.
You can lock them up, fine them, do whatever, it’ll never have any effect. They will just get out of jail and set fire to another police car given the chance.
I’m not saying the protesters are right, but I will always defend peaceful discourse and all opinions, even the most vile, unfounded bile can have their stage. But they must then also be open to reason and proper discussion. There is no situation where setting fire to police vehicles (paid for with my taxes, by the way) is part of a civilised debate.
This is indeed not activism or protesting; it is the right.
Exactly.
Ugh the Dutch have a black face festival (zwarte piet) doesn’t surprise me they also have a n4z1 contingent.
