The blue hashtags say #parliamentcrisis and #energycrisis

Europe will burn soon I suppose

      Imagine spending 400 years colonizing half the globe only to end up with a turd as your famous national dish. Fucking white people.

          No one really knows what’s in it as well. The wildest rumours go round, including pig eyeballs and left over horse meat. But no one cares really.

          Eating meat is weird.

              I think some madlads do it but I have never heard about anyone making it at home. Most people buy them in snack bars or in the supermarket.

          Okay…hear me out…when I was a kid, guys with carts selling fried sausages mixed with fish/ beef balls along with other meats was a nice treat. It’d be tossed in this hot sauce, god…it was sooo good.

          Was it healthy? No. Was it sometimes served piping hot in a plastic bag? Yes, but I have a nice story to tell!

        as a non-Dutchie, had that once when I was visiting there, if my memory from over a decade ago is right, it was actually rather tasty.

        Well in Poland mass protests erupted multiple times over living cost expense raises of 2-5%. But that was in socialism, in capitalism we had hyperinflation and now we will have it again, and 30 years of austerity and no one bats an eye, just ora et labora like good slaves.

        So it’s great seeing not every nation to be such a witless mannequins.

        It’s the cheapest meat.
        If you cannot afford this, you cannot afford meat, or any other food for that matter.

    Reminder that if we want to have a prayer of anything changing, we should focus on agitating, deprogramming, and rallying the people suffering instead of going “lol you deserve it for being russophonbic have fun freezing to death!” Materialistically, antagonizing and laughing at them does nothing of value, not for EU citizens, not for Russians, not for you. But it seems that people here are content to do just that instead of using this crisis as an opportunity to help push for class consciousness and marxism.

    You know, like how Lenin seized upon the suffering of the Russian people during WWI as an opportunity not to laugh at them and go “well that’s what you get for supporting the Tsar have fun getting blown up by the Germans!”, but to actually rally the people toward socialism and overcome that suffering?

      Indeed. My post was not meant to mock people suffering.

      I moved out of The Netherlands to Belgium but it’s the same here. And the party is working overtime to get out there and help as much as possible.

      Yeah that’s completely true.

      But there now should be ways to convert this privilege into actual class consciousness to go forward.

    Hope you do not suffer much, comrade, and that this collapse may bring prosperity and a better future for your people.

    Holy shit things escalated in a matter of weeks. Capitalists stepped on a nuclear landmine with their gas and electricity shenanigans.

      Shit really hit the fan quickly all of a sudden. I’ve got very centrist people in my surroundings calling for revolution, radicalizing took them three weeks it seems.

      I think the summer holiday being over plays a big role in this. Weather is slowly changing, holiday gloss is over and it’s back to reality. A reality in which you can’t afford your bills anymore.

      Combination of personnel shortage and all the other shit happening
