OT: Love your screen-name BTW. Avenge King Harold!
That puts a different light on his assassination. I hope it hurt a lot.
There's nothing wrong with Holland that 2.6 million Afrikaner immigrants couldn't fix.
SO the Gutch are running. They Best return to their country and trow out the Socialists, Physically if Necessary, and take back their country.
It didn't take long for America to regain its naivety.
Just ask George Bush.
Norm Mineta never lost his, and he's still there.
Now there's a thought but I bet they'd be denied visas these days.
The Netherlands is in a death spiral. The good folks are leaving. The bad folks are arriving. Good luck.
The scales fall from the eyes. The awakening. The anagnorisis.
Well, at least she's smarter than the average Californian.
Now that the Dutch have screwed up their own country and are jumping ship like rats at sea, who is to say that these same socialist leaning Netherlanders will not try to screw up the countries they immigrate to?
Well, too bad. Who voted to keep "the government" in power that allowed this cesspool to develop? Moose Limbs have NEVER been known to assimilate into cultures other than the Moose Limb culture. This could have been, and probably was, easily predicted. The problem where the Dutch are concerned is that they just didn't have enough square footage to allow them to ignore the problems for as long as some other Euro countries have - but who are next.
I certainly sympathize with these people, but they should stand and fight. Running doesn't work, because the nature of the Left (and of the "civil rights/multiculturalist"
ideology) is to leave no one alone, anywhere. There is no escape. We stand and fight where we live, or we lose everywhere.
Great description of socialism.
"It's not why we are leaving: the reason is that Australia feels different, it feels like a place where we would like to grow old," she said.
It's different because Australia is only in the early stages of becoming a flaming socialist cesspool like Holland is. Give it time. The more it's infected by the fleeing rats from Holland, carrying the seeds of the political equivalent of the bubonic plague, the faster its fate will become the same.
It's just like the Americans who flee from the inner city to the suburbs, only to take their problems with them & spread the blight - kids who take the inner city culture with them and corrupt the suburb kids even more, parents who immediately begin to demand the same level of "services" they "enjoyed" in the city, only to raise taxes, increase government dependency & laziness, reduce the quality of life, and bring down everyone around them. Human viruses all.
There is a somewhat overlooked fact here in the West concerning the cultural & historic difference between the Afrikaner of Cape Dutch (ie: Western Cape origin) & those of Voortrekker & Trekboer descent. < ie: those whose descendents would many populate the Boer Republics in the north. > For more see also: Who Are The Boers. Though this link only mentions the Boers of the Republics shortly before the second Anglo-Boer War.
There was a Boer emigration from the South African region after the Anglo-Boer War. Starting in 1903 the largest group of Boer emigrants went to Argentina where a large Afrikaans speaking Boer community still exists.
Around the same time another group of Boers went to East Africa. < in what was later called Kenya >
A third group went to the American South West. Most of these descendents were absorbed into the English speaking population of the region.
Texans with the surnames Viljoen (from Villion) < Francois Villion was the first French Huguenot refugee from France who settled in the Cape in 1671. > or Snyman (from Sennayement also of French origin) or Du Toit (also of French origin) < the French1 ancestors of the Boer / Afrikaners accounts to about 23 % of their total genes > are most likely the descendents of these emigrant Boers who arrived in the region shortly after the Anglo-Boer War.
Furthermore: some Westerners erroneously regard the Boers as "white colonials", but the fact of the matter is that the Boers are indigenous to the region.
The fact that their history goes back to 1652 & that their earliest ancestors began breaking ties to Europe before they began trekking into the expanding frontiers -starting in the 1690s & throughout the 1700s- long before encountering the first Bantu group (Xhosas) should be ample enough evidence that they are indeed an indigenous people & culture to the region.
I almost want to agree, except it would make me glad an Islamofascist committed another murder.
