I've seen you guys post about the Dutch farmer protests and I'd like to give you guys some extra context, most of you really don't know how bad shit has gotten in the Netherlands these past few years. I'll try to keep it short.
Our current vice-premier and minister of finance and WEF-member (and minster of foreign affairs in the past cabinet) Sigrid Kaag was in the past fired of her lesser position in foreign affairs because of perjury, turns out she was secretly married to Anis al-Qaq, the right-hand man of Yasser Arafat. Despite this she can not only just return to governing but leads the most progressive party of the Netherlands, D66. They got second place in the last election.
She has also send millions of our taxpayer money directly to hamas, repeatedly. There are also regular sex-schandals within the party, including silencing the victims.
Despite this she's a media darling. This has obviously nothing to do with the fact that our national broadcasting was led by a lady named Shula Rijxman for the past 6 years, whom despite claiming political neutrality for her entire career became a D66 alderman of Amsterdam within the month she quit.
It shouldn't surprise you that the Public Broadcasting Network literally broadcasted a documentary about Kaag's career, made from taxpayer money and checked and corrected by Kaag personally (one of the many scandals that quickly got ignored, don't get me started about their employee diversity trophies). It aired in the weeks leading up to the last election.
Well at least there is more media than just public broadcasting right? Well there is but all our national (and most regional) papers, magazines and tv channels are in the hands of only two companies. Two Belgian companies whom both receive millions of EU funding of which both owners completely coincidentally have direct ties to the Renew Europe party, which both our ruling party (VVD) and D66 are part of. No, it isn't nationally acknowledged that both our second and first party are basically the same party, it's just one of those things nobody talks about.
You can probably imagine how our media treats dissidents. I would be called a conspiracy theorist for stating these verifiable facts, or a 'wappie' as they've been called since corona.
I work for a very progressive employer so I see daily how disconnected our elites are from the real world, and it won't take long until shit will completely hit the fan. Funnily enough, the farmer protests probably won't even be the cause, it will be those darn immigrants and the lack of actual houses to put them in, since they get priority over people who have been searching for decades and well, people are starting to notice they are being discriminated against in their own country. There is so much more to talk about (I didn't even mention our prime minister, who has his whole own unique form of dementia) but I'll keep it at this for now.
It would be funny if it weren't so sad.
The Prime Minister is the guy that "forgets" things that are inconvenient for him right?
Yes indeed, the last scandal he completely forgot that he was supposed to archive his work text-messages.
