Dutch parliament wants to follow U.S. example and label Antifa a terrorist organization

a year ago by schizoidman to c/europe

A majority in the lower house of the Dutch parliament wants the Netherlands to follow the United States’ lead and designate the far-left Antifa movement as a terrorist organization. A motion to that effect by Lidewij de Vos (FvD), Caroline van der Plas (BBB), and Geert Wilders (PVV) was passed with the support of the VVD, SGP, and JA21.

What is nltimes.nl and who is behind it?

The website publishes exclusively sensationalist headlines mostly with content that offers not much more than the headline itself. When you try to access the site, they ask for your age. What kind of ads do they run there?

As far as I could figure out, the outlet appears to be a partnership so there are little reporting requirements, but there are only a couple of employees. This seems to be another clickbait media.

Well, that's incredibly stupid.

I didn't expect this from the Dutch of all people.

The populist right has won in the previous election and probably will in the next one. This probably won't be the last.

As it is not really a organization they can now call any leftist group antifa and ban it.

Unfortunately the info is correct. link to the motie

The question is how it will be implemented, as it to the government to do it. (What's left of the government voted for it, so no high hopes)

This together with the proposed law against "verheerlijken van terrorisme"(the proposed law is so written, it can mean any support for any terroristic organization. Think UK with Palestine action) link in dutch to a article about it It can be implemented that you go to jail if you say you any thing that is anti fascism.

So wouldn't that include the historical European ones?

Next up, the people that hid Anne Frank were criminals, and the ones who snitched were good Samaritans helping the law.

Rules

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don't question the statehood of Israel.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
  8. Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
  10. Always provide context with posts: Don't post uncontextualized images or videos, and don't start discussions without giving some context first.

(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the admin that applied the rule (check modlog first to find who was it.)
