  • Hilarious for the Dutch to call out anti muslim hate while the Dutch and The Netherlands as a whole are extremely racist and have literally turned mundane institutions into bodies of persecution just to persecute muslims, like welfare, the national study grants org etc etc, not to mention illegally infiltrating mosques, debanking muslims for making perfectly legal donations to mosques, and for having racist legislation, and institutionally racist police.

    Rich coming from us. Fucking hell.


  • Dit klinkt voor mensen als ‘overdreven’ misschien. I get it. Maar dit is precies wat ik ook ervaren heb, en wat bijna alle vreedzame demonstranten wel een keer hebben meegemaakt. Zoek op Pride Leiden Doorbraak.eu en je ziet waar ik het over heb. De politie houdt ervan om de grote machtige geweldsplegers te spelen totdat ze zichzelf in een slachtofferrol kunnen plaatsen zoals bij Loosdrecht. ACAB. Altijd ACAB.

    Vraag aan OP, zijn er artikelen of foto’s of video’s die je kunt delen? (Met veiligheid van demonstranten uiteraard in het oog gehouden, dus niet zomaar beelden delen waar ze herkenbaar op staan zonder toestemming bijvoorbeeld)

    I think we need societal change and I don’t think blanket prescribing women what to do or not do like this is necessarily the way to go about it. It’s more structural but also, women get told what to do all the time and this is how the patriarchal systems keep being perpetuated.

    Also while it is true that by far the most violence and sexual violence occur within the direct social circles of victims (such as family or work), there is also an element of harassment and abuse that is normalized outside those circles. This is not necessarily immediately violent but it reinforces the same patriarchal structures. Things like making lewd comments, inappropriate touching, threatening violence are still experienced far too often to dismiss them. And as I said, this does not always turn to violence but it very well could and does far too often. This instills a safety culture in women who need to learn to adapt and to endure this harassment and the real danger it brings.

    So yeah. Women sending their husbands so they don’t get killed. They have a point there, I’m sorry but they do and pretending they don’t and ‘they should just go outside more’ is reductive and dismissive of the realities women unfortunately face every day.

    I’m happy for you, really, but really that is only one experience of course. Data from surveys etcetera show us that a very large majority of women and people perceived as women do experience harassment, abuse and sexual abuse at least once in their lives and data also shows this often is common to women. This often leads women to change their behaviors which they say they wouldn’t have changed if not for those experiences and their awareness of the experiences of other women like female friends and family. I think with the majority of women consistently reporting bad experiences and pretty much every larger scale survey coming back with similar results, we would be wrong to attribute this perceived reality to a media diet. Misunderstanding this issue has the risk of underestimating it or even dismissing it and risks dehumanizing victims. It also actively does not contribute to any solutions.

    I am also currently pooping btw just fyi
