For my followers not aware of what is happening in my country. Please spread awareness. Please share.
We're scared and feeling hopeless right now.
Especially communities like the LGBTQ community, refugees, immigrants, and the islamic community.

Going to talk about the state of Dutch politics again. If you ever pay attention to them, please let it be now.
So like. We're now about 18 hours after the polls closed. The PVV has gained 2 more seats than even the exit polls estimated. The major left-wing parties have both immediately positioned themselves as opposition parties, so unless a big shift happens, the slight hope for a center government is pretty much shot through. We are looking at a (far) right cabinet that is going to do their best to fuck everything up and reverse even the little bits of progress that the past half a dozen or so center-right cabinets still managed to pull off.
And yeah I know that Wilders has been acting like he's going to be "milder" than he's been in the past. And I know that half of what the PVV wants they can't do from a simple constitutional and legal standpoint. But the fact is that they got 37 out of 150 seats. Almost a quarter of our electorate. OVER 2.4 MILLION PEOPLE, are apparently willing to agree with the hateful, islamophobic, racist, queerphobic, climate-denying, insane fucking ideas of Geert Wilders and his PVV. Or at the very least, they're willing to be okay with it. Sure not all of them will agree, but a FUCKING QUARTER OF OUR POPULATION is willing to say "okay yeah I'm fine with you saying those things. I'm fine with you implementing these ideas." And that's not even considering those who voted for other parties that hold similar ideals.
That's the worst part of all this to me. I am dreading a far right government. I am dreading which changes they WILL be able to implement. But above all I'm terrified of knowing that over a quarter of our fucking country is just, okay with it. A quarter of the country is willing to vote for the "less morrocans" guy. A quarter of the country is willing to vote for the guy wanting to ban islam. Wanting to pretty much stop taking in any refugees and sending them all back. Wanting to ban fucking LGBT education and what not. I am not even close to being their primary target. Sure I'm trans and queer and what not. But I'm still white and Dutch. I fear not just for myself. I fear way more for those in this country who look at this election, and see a party who downright says they don't belong here. They will face more hate. And I can't do much about that. But the least I can do is not shut up. I can try and show them that there are still plenty people here who do stand with them. And while I don't agree with him on some things, I do agree with Frans Timmermans in saying that at this point, we need to stand up straight, we need to look at the people who feel they might not belong in this country, and tell them we Have. Their. Backs.
And I know there's more shit going on in the world. I know most people on this site don't care much for Dutch politics. But I need to talk about it for once because honestly it's fucking terrifying. We looked on when Trump got elected. We spread your news on all that. Maybe this once, now our own Trump has pretty much won here, you'll look to our country, and at least, see what's going on. It might not be a war or anything on that order of magnitude. But it still fucking matters

Why is right-wing populism outmatching left-wing populism across the Globe?
It’s so much easier to make people feel afraid than it is to make them feel hopeful or safe or supported. Right wing populism preys on people’s fears and stokes pre-existing anxieties, while also providing an individual “strongman” that people can look to for resolution. Simple and effective.
If we look at left-wing policies or general ideological talking points, they require both:
an inherent empathy/sympathy for strangers and community alike
a strong persistence to work against pre-existing institutions/structures to achieve that which isn’t often simple
It requires more effort, more funding, and occasionally can’t be simplified into layman’s terms, which ostracizes those who can’t reach higher education. This, above all else, is what makes right-wing populist rhetoric so effective - it’s approachable. It doesn’t ask you to care for others (quite the opposite) outside of your own interests. It’s comforting to have a powerful leader who “isn’t afraid to speak the truth” or “tell it like it is”, when the preceding leaders have all spoken outside your comprehension and made you feel isolated from your country in their education, class, and/or status.
Really, right-wing populism is in vogue because it’s so much easier to understand and so much easier to exercise. It doesn’t ask for much - it certainly doesn’t ask for us to follow rules or facts. It’s chameleon, and its rhetoric shapes to what would reach the most people regardless of how plausible, reasonable, or respectable it is.

Right wing politicians in the US and Europe are against mass migration but support Israel, the country most involved in or directly causing the refugee crisis around the world especially in Middle East.

Hoe lang denk je dat kabinet Wilders/Schoof I het gaat volhouden?
- minder dan een jaar
- 1-2 jaar
- 2-3 jaar
- 3-4 jaar
- de volle termijn, maar er komt geen tweede editie
- de volle termijn EN er komt een tweede editie
- de volle termijn, maar het is als Theseus' schip (alle leden vervangen in die tijd)

We were actually kind of moving towards climate regulations but now that’s fucking dead in the water. I hate right wingers and I hate Geert Wilders.

Also to the people who aren't from the Netherlands, being like "good job electing a fascist Netherlands. Time to never go there bla bla you fucked yourself up!" Shut up. Go fuck yourself. Yes. They got a quarter of the votes. Yes it fucking sucks. But first of, three quarters of the country still didn't vote for him. And secondly. WE DON'T FUCKING NEED YOU TRYING TO PUSH US DOWN EVEN MORE.
If you're going to speak on what's going on, yes recognise this fucking sucks. But how about instead of blaming the whole damn country, you try and stand with the people who didn't vote for Wilders. Stand with the people who will be his victims. How about instead of just blaming everyone, you simply stand against the shit and with those who need fucking support right now. And if you can't do that, if all you want to do is bitch at us about it, just don't. We have enough of that already. We don't need to be pointing blame.
