Reset This! Dutch Elections See Tractor Protest Party Trounce Globalist Govt and EU Green Agenda

The upstart populist pro-farmer party FarmerCitizenMovement (BBB) shook the foundations of politics in the Netherlands overnight, securing a significant victory in Wednesday’s provincial elections on the back of growing resentment against the globalist government of Prime Minister Mark Rutte and his plans to introduce Great Reset-style environmental policies.

“People, what the **** happened?” exclaimed the frank-talking, half-Irish leader of the BBB, Caroline van der Plas in a victory speech on Wednesday evening as her party, which was formed just three years ago, saw the most gains of any party in the elections that will determine the makeup of the Dutch senate.

The BoerBurgerBeweging (FarmerCitizenMovement) dominated voting in rural areas of the country largely as a result of anger towards the government’s plans to impose EU-driven regulations on farming, particularly the use of nitrogen fertilisers, which many farmers have warned will put them out of business.

At the time of this reporting, BBB is expected to pick up an astonishing 16 seats in the 75-seat Senate, after previously holding zero. With 94 per cent of the vote counted, turnout is projected to have been around 57.5 per cent, the highest since the 1980s…

This is great news! We the people have spoken. Woke ESG government has been confronted and challenged. In this country too it is possible to get a pro agriculture pro food majority in our senate and even the house.

 

So many buzzwords!

The question should be if these environmental regulations are based on sound science and if yes are these farmers willing to do anything to prevent the damages being caused by these compounds?

I think one of the largest hurdles environmental policies have is that they displace trades without opening a new method of income from those harmed.

An interesting read if you are wanting to see what the issue is:

I think we should all strive to be awake instead of a sleeping sheep

 

It’s time to stop the ESG attempts to starve us and take over our agriculture. All over the world this is happening. We the people are standing up to our establishments and resisting their decrees.

 

Also, we need to confront wizards and fairies, since we are taking on fictional things.

 

I think it is hilarious and sad that a group whose sole mission is more pollution is lauded.

 

The governments of some of these nations put their ESG score above their fiduciary responsibilities to their people. They bankrupted their people and their governments and causes food inflation and shortages. If the world did what Sri Lanka did and what The Netherlands is trying there would not be enough food to feed us all.

 

It’s sad that you prefer food shortages and food inflation instead…

 

I learn so much about myself from the baseless opinions of random folks.

How long do you think you can dump nitrogen based fertilizers in one spot before it impacts other spots?

 

Farmers know how to grow food to feed the masses. Politicians know how to spread the fertilizer from their lying mouths. If you like eating three times a day you should side with the farmers on this one.

 

Your denial of the existence of ESG and Woke climate change politics controlling economic and fiduciary decisions rings hollow. The people of The Netherlands got it right.

 

The bottom line here….

 

The bigger question is why you have no interest in the billionaire interests who would end up with these farms (at a price of pennies on the dollar). Anybody who thinks this has a damn thing to do with the environment needs to do a little more research. Always look who benefits financially. If the winners are the elite and the losers are working farmers, perhaps you are on the wrong side.

 

Yeah, I saw this too...

I wish them the best of luck, I hope they can get more people to move over to the side if common sense and humanity.

It's a tough row to hoe though. Liberals, leftists, progressives - whichever label they wear, are heavily indoctrinated.

It is very rare to see anyone indoctrinated to the depths that leftists are overcome the programming they've been subjected to.

 

Woke climate change. Not just cliamte change, but woke climate change.

Here's what I think about the woke accusation.

If woke means not being a racist jerk, if woke means understanding people may have different life experiences than myself and understanding their perspectives were shaped by things I have never experienced, if woke means treating other humans with a modicum of respect, then I am woke as ****.

 

Woke is a lot of things, but fundamentally it is about bullying anyone who will not go along with the ridiculous, unnatural, perverted claims of people who are so lost psychologically and emotionally that they should be diagnosed as mentally ill.

It is about force, it is about weaponizing institutions to attack that which is normal and moral, to attack the foundations of our society, to attack the family unit.

It is an affront to common sense, biological science, and decency.

So based on that cursory inventory, I agree with you - you are indeed, "woke as ****".

 

So.......woke is perverted?

 

Yes, absolutely the whole thing is all that and twisted as well. Woke as a concept has no redeeming human value whatsoever. None.

 

Some people are speaking with 16 seats out of 75. While the other folks speak with 59 seats out of 75.
And those 59 are going out vote the hell of the BBB and cut down their incredible polluting industrialized cattle/pig/chicken farms.
That's how the people are speaking through democracy.

And all them lovely pictures of cattle in the fields doesn't change that the pic underneath is the reality.
Livestock are fed in massive barns with food imported somewhere else. And all that manure is just tossed into the environment.





Them farmers are turning the country into a raw sewage site.
The amount of livestock per square mile is just nuts in that country.

 

The Dutch farmers have industrialized the way to keep livestock as healthy as possible, but besides that: nothing else.
With that they made themselves the 2nd biggest food exporter on the planet, behind the US.
All that manure concentrated in that absolute dot of a country.... it's turning the country into an open raw sewage plant.

 

Spot on. Easy to pass regulations and yet ignore the realities the incumbents have to face. I've always believe that government subsidy to assist to do the right thing is a good way to go. Once the subsidiary technologies, knowledge and support systems have become established then you can gradually reduce the crutch.

 

Yeah, but excess nitrates wreak havoc on the environment. You need to find a balance.

 

You just described Christianity....and Islam....and Hinduism....and the Republican Party....and quite a few more besides. Cool. Thanks for the definition. I'll be sure to employ it widely on this forum.

 

Opening a new method of income? Did you think through that threw all the way? Put farmers out of business....who's going to grow the food? You keep putting them out of business, they're not just losing a business, they're losing their land because it will be foreclosed by the bank (most farmers owe debt due to loans in order to buy/fix the equipment needed to work their farms). Then the odds are that the bank will sell to some company that wants to turn the area into homes. Pretty sure the Dutch don't have all that much arable land.

Maybe, the best thing to do would be to research some other fertilizer to use that is cheap or cheaper than what is being used now. Wait until that is done and THEN phase it in rather than push for it via fiat. Let them have time to adjust and get ready for the change to using something else.

This is the biggest problem I have with climate activists. They're pushing for change and giving little care, if any, to the effects that they are pushing for when they demand people stop using <insert whatever here>. Its like the environmentalists who push to stop logging. How do they expect to wipe their asses without trees being cut down?

 

We're talking about fertilizer. Agricultural farms. You know, wheat, carrots, beets, corn etc etc. Not cows. Fertilizer is not fed to cows. That would actually kill them.

 

It's mainly about livestock, not plants. The amount of livestock they got is just nuts.
TBH it's hard to find. But I found this. They got 30% more than nr 2, and everybody else in the EU is not really in sight.

Do note, the below is on average. All them animals live there on the same square km, with the people in it. The US got like 10 cattle per sq km.

In 2018, the country had an average of 14 goats, 93 cattle, 298 pigs, and 2372 poultry per km.

The Netherlands is densely populated, yet more than half of the land is used for farming. And indeed. Lots of them farmers need to stop and before the country ends up into an open sewage plant. They can go to any other EU nation of their choosing and start something there. Them are the rules of the EU.

Just because some people are inbreeding on their puppy farm, doesn't mean they care about the product or the environment. They just care about the income.
And there is something to be said about caring about the environment and animals locked up in small cages for the sake to make money.
