Black Lives Matter movement is fooling itself
(Read here the Dutch version of this blog)
Everyone can come up with plans to fight racism and discrimination. But that is not the problem. The problem is that a large number of minorities in the Netherlands do not commit themselves sufficiently as a community to participate in society. Crime and segregation within those minorities is far greater than the discrimination and racism of the so-called ‘whites’.
Making demands on the ‘whites’ to adapt to the minorities is really nonsensical and will not work. As a minority in this country you have every chance to succeed, the law gives you equal rights and there are enough people among your people who have succeeded in doing well in the Netherlands.
The problem is that those who succeed very well and became influencers, are themselves a large minority in their own community. Look at the Surinamese in the Netherlands. They hardly represent themselves in the parliament. There was one woman there alone, but she left the Parliament. No Surinamese or black politician can be found in the house of representatives at the moment and that is absolutely not the whites’ fault. It says something about their own mentality and what they as a community want to give priority to.
At the moment, the left is simply using the motto ‘blacklivesmatter’ (BLM) for its own political gain. That’s what Democrats are doing in the US now, too, hoping Biden will win against Trump. But it is not going to succeed and I say this as a person who does not support Trump.
The BLM movement is an attention seeker. I am not saying that there is no discrimination and racism, but it is minimal than all the countries of origin where all these complainants come from. The BLM movement wants to adjust and perfect the ‘whites’ while they themselves are far from perfect. In their own communities, they discriminate against each other many times more than how they are discriminated against by the ‘whites’. In fact, they trust a white person more than their own people. They prefer to work for a white Dutchman than for someone of their own origin.
And they are nowhere better than here, otherwise they would have moved or moved back to their original country to start a future there. But they don’t … Even in their own country they can’t take it there for more than a few weeks of vacation to return to the Netherlands.
This group of minority people who are complaining so much are often the second generation born here who should not actually be complaining. They are well-behaved, usually educated, but they use racism and discrimination as a trump card to blame the “whites” for the failure of their own communities.
And as I said before, it really is all political, they hope to win voters back for the left.
