Pfff as if. We also have FvD (forum for democracy), and JA21 which split off from FvD because FvD started saying the quiet part out loud

Dit ziet er zó dom en antisemitisch uit dat ik echt verbaasd ben dat het bestaat, zelfs als satire

🎉🎉🎉

Oh wauw, nu ook kritiek uit de hexbear-kant

At least for the Dutch alt-right party Forum voor Democratie there’s definite proof that they get money from Russia

I wonder if he’s just being careful politically. Farmers are a polarised topic in the Netherlands.

As a Dutch person most of what I know about Indonesian history isn’t very jolly (due to us)

Not to be confused with “ontroerend goed”, which moves you (emotionally)

There are no beaches in the Netherlands that far away from a major city though

Zeker veel beter dan PVV, maar de CDA is ook wel een partij vol schandalen. Ik zou zeggen, de reden dat NSC en BBB überhaupt bestaan

Are you still talking about the Netherlands? Unless it’s on one of the islands, I don’t see how a house near the beach could be in a bad location

“Meel” is ook een interessante voor dat rijtje (specifiek de L aan het eind van een lettergreep, “stelen” is wel weer normaler bijvoorbeeld). De gewone klanken lukken voor Nederlanders ook gewoon niet goed voor een R/L.

At best you could say there’s “the” (pronounced thee) and “the” (pronounced “thuh”), like le vs l’

Germanic language Dutch only has “de” and “het”

plenty of kids up for adoption

Maybe this is very country-dependent, but at least in the Netherlands that’s not the case at all (and adoptions from abroad get shady, like without the mother’s consent)

In Dutch, “haai” (shark) sounds very similar to “hi” (the English word), same for “hooi” (hay) and “hoi” (hi). Which leads to this hilarious comic I saw once where a shark meets a bale of hay ^{edit: somehow I typed bay of hale}

In Baarle-Nassau and Baarle-Hertog, which is essentially one village split between the Netherlands and Belgium in the messiest way possible, I think it’s based on where the front door is

Oh I’d never call myself a conservative, and most conservative parties here are right-wing as well.

Edit: I should probably start by saying that this is somewhat off-topic.

In the Netherlands we tend to rank our parties along left-right and progressive-conservative axes separately. Conservative-left gets you Christians who care about the poor. In other countries there’s also the “I want the government to support our workers”, “I want to go back to Soviet times” and “I’m leftist but LGBTQ is wrong” types.

The English disease of putting spaces in a compound word might be worse… it’s not even consistent. It’ll be a new example of “Dutch grammar is 50% special cases.”
