Hoi NOS, de kop van dit artikel had dus ook anders gemoeten. Beter was geweest deze zin bijvoorbeeld. (En dat "zelfs" mag ook weg. In Nijmegen alleen al waren er minstens tien keer zoveel tegendemonstranten op de been.)

"In onder meer Nijmegen, Leeuwarden en Groningen waren zelfs meer tegendemonstranten op de been, die hun solidariteit betuigden met asielzoekers."

'Nationaal protest' tegen asielbeleid in meerdere steden, geen massale opkomst

De protesten lijken overwegend rustig te zijn verlopen. In een aantal steden waren tegendemonstraties groter in omvang.

#Nijmegen is countering the far right with a colorful, diverse protest
(from the call to action at https://acties.todon.nl/event/vluchtelingen-welkom-1944):

“Nijmegen welcomes everyone. We protect people, not borders”

#Nijmegen stellt der extremen Rechten bunten vielfältigen Protest entgegen
(aus dem Aufruf https://acties.todon.nl/event/vluchtelingen-welkom-1944):
Am 16.5. organisiert „Nationaal Protest“ in mehreren Städten Demons gegen die Aufnahme von Flüchtlingen, auch in #nimwegen. Dem soll eine kraftvolle Botschaft entgegen gesetzt werden, um zu zeigen, wofür Nijmegen steht: Solidarität, Menschlichkeit, Zusammenhalt und Gastfreundschaft. Dazu wurde mit einer breiten Koalition aus über 40 Organisationen eine #Blockparty organisiert.

Counter protest for freedom, peace and diversity, against violence, against blaming and hate towards refugees, against fascism.
The atmosphere on the other side was cold, frightening, hate, intolerance.
Where on this side people were friendly and warm, supportive, inclusive. Men, women, children, students, young families, people of all ages and looks.
It was encouraging to see so many standing up for peace, freedom and equality.

Here25tay - Festa per i primi 25 anni del Cantiere

Da venerdì 12 giugno a domenica 14 giugno, dalle 00:00 alle 04:00, presso Centro Sociale Cantiere, via Monterosa 84, Milano

Il futuro non è neutro.
O lo costruiamo
o ce lo vendono.

Dal 2001 il Cantiere è una frattura nel tempo.
Una zona autonoma nello spazio.
Un bug nel sistema.
Un errore che resiste.
Un cantiere permanente di mondi possibili.
Un luogo imprevisto, che non dovrebbe esistere
e che proprio per questo R-esiste ancora.

25 anni di corpi fuori controllo.
Di musica contro il silenzio.
Di assemblee contro l’isolamento.
Di cultura libera contro l’algoritmo che decide
chi vale
chi resta
chi sparisce.

Mentre la città viene svenduta,
mentre l’immaginazione viene colonizzata,
mentre il futuro viene sgomberato
noi restiamo.
Perchè c’eravamo,
ci siamo
e ci saremo

HERE25TAY non è un semplice festival
è un atto collettivo
Una festa come pratica politica.
Una comunità che si rende visibile,
perchè nessun possa farla sparire.

Gli spazi sociali non si toccano
perché senza di loro questa città è solo rendering e profitto, una Milano che non sogna più.

Gli spazi occupati non si toccano, perchè senza di loro, il futuro di questo Paese è il passato e, in questo caso, il passato è un futuro di merda.

Qui siamo.
Qui restiamo.
Qui restiamo.
HERE25TAY.

This is CRAZY. It turns out Jack Dorsey's Block $XYZ spent $68 million on a single party in September 2025, roughly the annual payroll for 200 employees at $340,000 each. Then 5 months later, he laid off 4,000 people (40% of the company's workforce), citing AI and "intelligence
