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.

@hembrow Any chance of the other parties growing a spine and refusing to work with the nazis?

@androcat The sensible people have already said they won't work with him. But other right wing parties might do so. I'm fairly confident that any coalition that Wilders can possibly make would fall apart, but I'm still going to have to walk along streets where a quarter of the people voted for a fascist.

@hembrow that really sucks.

We're all in similar boats, as well.

We need to figure out a way to unhack our media machines, that have so woefully betrayed the democracy that allowed them in the first place.
