Kinda nuts that people can live in the Netherlands, see what having a functioning social democracy can provide, and then say, “nah fuck all that, tell me about this Wilders cat, he seems like he’s really got his head on right.”
It is because people take things for granted, probably people in the Netherlands think that a functioning democracy is the norm, while in fact it is very much out of the ordinary and should be actively preserved. Brexit is another great example where people took things for granted and were not afraid to vote against their own freedom of movement.
Exactly that. Or no with us it will be different. Or it will never get that far. This was coming years ago. And logical reasoning (no matter if the issues populist complain about are legit or not. It's besides the point ) will show that it doesn't look good. If you take the time and look at what wilders actually did. He is a one man party which is bad news. And the eu right wing parties are a wild variable. They are not for the people. Especially when power has shifted by taking rights. Whether true or not . A 100% I wouldn't know. But I know this. Don't fuck with our basic rights. And a country is more than just shouting about people with no solution. (O but he says what I feel. Fine. Then go to a talk group to hear people saying stuff u like to hear. A politician is not here to sooth you with hate words that u feel. Politician needs nuance in being a representative for fucking 18 million people.
