Al die tijd waarschuwend dat alleen zij ons voor Wilders konden behoeden. Waarna ze hem de macht in handen schoven door hem aan een coalitie te helpen, en toen die ontplofte de waarschuwing om te draaien naar GroenLinks - om zo D66 te kunnen kapen en de baas te gaan spelen over nog een kabinet.

PEANUTS comic strip featuring Charlie Brown and Lucy. Lucy is pleading with Charlie Brown to kick the football, and as usual pulls it away. NO! OH, COME ON, CHARLIE BROWN..

The American people need protection from those who seek to exploit the workers for every last penny.

Some decry this view as "socialism."

I call it fair.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Loesje is onafhankelijk, idealistisch en anti-autoritaire optimist. Ze draait volledig op de inzet van betrokken mensen – en een klein team dat met liefde en beperkte middelen alles draaiende houdt. Zonder subsidies, zonder grote sponsors, maar mét overtuiging.

That was just to avoid counting - not his strong point.

Agree - there's enough real stuff to shudder about.

The guy who has refused to help war-torn Ukraine now wants to “protect Christians” in Nigeria, says he is “rescuing” Argentina on behalf of the West, and is “combating drug trafficking” in Venezuela.

What do all three countries have in common?

They all have abundant oil.
What a coincidence.

How Democracies Die

What was the moral to be demoralized?

Sorry for my lack of nuance. Had quite a scare In the Netherlands, where Wilders almost got away with what Orban did: democratically chosen (1/4! in '23) he immediately suggested changing the constitution and stopping Public Broadcasting funds. Last month barely enough people voted the opposite...

Brilliant idea and what a novelty (what took them so long?)

🖤🇭🇺 On this day in 1956, Soviet tanks rolled into Budapest to crush the Hungarian revolution. Prime Minister Imre Nagy gave his final radio address as KGB chief Ivan Serov oversaw the brutal invasion. Nagy and other leaders were later executed, while over 200,000 Hungarians fled to the West.

So now that Hungary is choosing! fascism, I find it beyond comprehension and very very sad.
