And the winner of the Dutch election is... The Dutch Media. They've spent decades hyping up every right wing racist party, allowing them to say the most outrageous things without any fact checking at all. The public has now given the most votes to a racist linked to Putin. I'm ashamed.

I always got the impression local media and by extension the politicians demonized PVV over the years. They thought they were painting it in a bad light, but instead giving his dumb ideas airtime.

So when PVV became more moderate in its messaging and there were Palestinian flags everywhere all the time, you don't need to be a weatherman to know which way the wind was blowing.

While everybody on fedi is coping, its not the end of the world. Just keep your heads cool and carry on.
