    Wilders is another Putin stooge capitalizing on how shitty everything is with immigrants and all that

    When you think about that even a little bit, Putin is responsible for a solid amount of the immigration crisis that has Europeans feeling like there’s too many immigrants (Syria, Ukraine, etc) and the answer must be less democracy and fewer human rights protections because if refugees don’t have human rights they don’t matter, right?

    It’s a bit like how the GOP uses its power to make life objectively worse for people in general, and then turns around and argues that it’s proof that democracy doesn’t work.

      Wilders is an Zionist peon not a Russian one. He is hardlining to send more bombs to israel to bomb Arabs with.

      He lived as a Colonist in the west bank for two years when he was 17 and ate up all the propaganda about Arabs.

        Why can’t he be both? Wasn’t it uncovered he got financial support from American Christian conservative and Russia?

          It could be both, Russia benefits from any western country going right wing. But he is israel’s OG bitch. Geert Wilders had gone to israel at least 40 times in the last 25 years. All his talking points are Zionist stuff and he preaches about how amazing israel is in parliament. If he gets American Christian money it’s likely just a Zionist slush fund.
