Prertty crazy to think about how the Netherlands was probably the first country to elect a "populist", hate that word, leader

although he was shot and killed

won the most votes though in the election

yes

Pim Fortuyn 😦

hes so interesting

he already warned us about the immigration threat

in 2000

We had Jackson back in the 1830s

he did. he was called far right

Andrew jackson?

but he was left winged in terms of economics

Yeah

and a homosexual

didn't he start the democratic party? 😛

but in europe a lot of gays are considered "right"

Pim Fortuyn was a libertarian afaik

thought he was a socialist

Yeah. The Dems, like the US, have a lot of karma to work off

nono

im American, so when I hear libertarian I cringe

he was killed by a left-wing activist

i hate our libertarian party

ya, van der graaf

I can't take seriously anyone who talks of the gold standard

environmentalists giving up on the idea of overpopulation and population density issues has been interesting to see

Our libertarian party gets hard on it

So nope, just can't do it.

Some argued that Fortuynism was not just one ideology, but contained liberalism, populism and nationalism

could be, he was pretty dynamic it seems. very quick on his feet

like when he pissed off that imam on TV by acting flamboyant

yes

his murderer has been released like 2 years ago

and made him essentially say his he really feels. Some Islamic leaders in the Netherlands did the same about Van Gogh

disgusting

I cant find the english version of that van gogh documentary

he violated his probation, but was still let go

used to be on YouTube 😦

damn shame

he was a direct descendant from the painter van Gogh

ya, that's pretty crazy. Even crazier that these two events essentially set the course to whats going on now with WIlders
