Dutch right wingers do Sieg Heils in a demonstration shortly after their cabinet votes to designate Antifa as a terrorist organisation.

Man in burqa accidentally joins Nazi march and pretends to be part of their gang.
I was actually confused for a bit there because i read sieg heil in the title and then saw someone in a hijab record the video
As a Brit, it's comforting to know that other countries are also sliding towards fascism. At least we won't be alone!
Edit: /s
It's a very odd kind of comfort, especially because it comes with the certainty that, this time, there won't be any outside help against the Nazi scum.
this time, there wonβt be any outside help
There wasn't outside help for Germany either. Until the war, the disabled, socialists, lgbtq and colored people will live in terror, if at all.
There is still an outside. China has to be contained. There will be war. If China wins, and depending on how much our image of China is propaganda, that could be liberation.
Actually, I find it even more concerning that right wing extremism is on the rise everywhere in the west.
But who will stop the faschist then this time? Or is it just the next dark ages? Where science is banned as blasphemy for trump in his wise words declared vaxines the cause of autism and shall not ne questioned?
Since the ruling class figured out they need to overthrow the whole world to "avoid a third world war", they are making it global, except there's one small problem: it will lead to a third world war, due to territorial revisionisms American white nationalists like to pretend don't exist, old conflicts being reignited by jingoism, etc. White people won't unite under their skin color, but under their nationality.
Also China is not much better, they have just perfected the science of Stalinism.
As an American, it makes me wonder if the different fascists are going to fight amongst themselves or band together. All the different extreme my-country-first-supremacy parties are just dumb, desperate people who are quick to fight and slow to learn.
And then I remember that humans have only had the modern scientific method for like a hundred years. And even things like twelve tone equal temperament music is only a couple hundred years older than that.
Like, we are all basically still apes, fresh out of the caves with our fire and our smartphones, keeling over from corn syrup and trying to hide being afraid of our own shadows.
It's no wonder we can't get away from dumb shit like racism, tribalism, and amygdala hijacks. And here comes war, rearing her ugly head again. Fuck.
the shaking is due to those morons' grandparents rotating in their graves
Canada: Didn't we liberate your asses from this?
Dutch government literally still sending millions of tulip bulbs to Ottawa every year as a thank you, and then people do this. So fucking sad.
Sigh.
Well world. Hope you're ready to devote a bunch of resources and lives to stomping out fascism again.
Didn't even make it 1 century.
There's two things i can't stand in this world: people that are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch collaborators.
The Dutch government refuses to call these rioters extreme right, βjudgements as to their motives we leave to the public prosecutor and the policeβ.
shortly after their cabinet votes to designate Antifa as a terrorist organisation.
But they voted to look into it right? Right??
Yes.
They did. The cabinet also didn't vote on this, the Tweede Kamer (the "House" for English speakers) did. The cabinet doesn't have the power to unilaterally make this designation, it has a specific definition by law which almost certainly would get challenged in courts and revoked (Dutch courts aren't political appointees so hard to influence).
Wait, can we get some more info about designating Antifa as a terrorist group??
Following this story for a few days, the way I understand it it means that they decided to start some process that will determine whether the Dutch Antifa is a terrorist organisation. This already failed in 2016 and I haven't heard anything "terrorist" from them since or before.
My guess is it has something to do with protecting landlords.
Thanks for the context!
Lefthanded Sieg Heil? Is the video flipped or what's going on there?
Let's face it: they were never the smartest to begin with.
It is flipped as you can tell by the Nike-logo and the letters on a cap.
As the video is probably recorded with the selfie cam of a smartphone, it's likely flipped.
Damn. So crazy how all the anti-antifas turn out to just be fascists.
No need to spread this video further.
Not us too :(
It looks like they're just waving at the camera. Does "seig heil" mean "hi mom" here?
They might be ignorant or edgy, but they definitely know the meaning. To answer your question, no there aren't any other close words to confuse it.
When children are doing politics...
smerige kut nazis
Precies, gore rotnazis. Kind of weird how my family and I were called these things by the older generations when we lived there and now there's actual nazis running around like that.
why was yoyr family called nazis?
I understood that!
Then do yourself a favor and stop day drinking!
