    As a Dutch person, I’m sorry we elected a bunch of populist conservative bigots. I tried really hard, but a lot of the old racists haven’t died yet thanks to the excellent healthcare they’re trying to abolish.

      Same here. But sadly too many people were swayed by the populist parties and their ‘this one trick will fix everything’ rhetoric.

      Plus a lot of young easily swayed folk getting brainwashed on social media.

      We can only hope the idiots don’t use the agreed upon rules to point to the EU and start the Nexit process. You know the one where they just want a non binding poll to check the pulse of the nation. Only to turn a 51% vote into “The people have spoken”.

      Which is kind of a catch phrase for the right anyways. Look the people voted for right parties with huge differences, this must mean the people want what the extreme right wants.
