The Netherlands is absolutely doing a fascism speedrun it seems and the student protests are highlighting it tremendously. Never in my life have I seen people justify police beating down a protest against genocide with even politicians intimidating journalists.
Like, over here universities are getting occupied as well but apart from some mellow reactions there hasn’t been any trouble (yet). The Netherlands is just collectively losing it. But seeing the election results that shouldn’t be a surprise.
According to a poll from EenVandaag, 75% are in favor of the police response
I heard on the radio my town now also has a university protest will check it out after work
I saw it on tv tonight though I didn’t see you
Sorry I will do better next time
Who would’ve thought the fucking Netherlands would turn towards fascism again. (counting their time under Nazi occupation)
The Netherlands had the highest rate of voluntary enrollments in the SS. It’s the most openly racist country I’ve ever seen and I’m older than most.
