Situation is dire for Dutch farmers.

Time now is 0322 in Netherlands. Just got back to hotel.

Situation is dire for Dutch farmers. Dutch government has stated and reiterated they will kick the farmers off their ancestral fields. This gross authoritarian overreach attempts to justify the theft by accusing farmers of poisoning the environment with nitrogen and other normal fertilizer products.

And so, the Dutch government is stealing and consolidating wealth from farmers because the government has an army. And they can. This is nothing more or less than strong armed robbery. The Dutch government is channeling Mao conducting doing Stalinesque attacks.

Less than two days ago, Dutch police fired bullets at a 16 year-old farm boy driving a tractor at a peaceful protest. Well, the farmers were peaceful. Police tried to kill the boy and arrested him.

And so, today (now yesterday), farmers descended on the police station demanding his release. After a spell, government agreed to release the boy if the farmers left. Farmers left and Farm Boy was released.

Afterwards, farmers made bonfires in the country beside a major road. We came. The vast majority appeared to be in their teens or early twenties. They are desperate and do not know what to do. When they realized we are foreigners they repeatedly asked for help, to tell the world, because their press makes farmers look evil or simply ignores trespasses against farmers.

I must sleep. Much to do tomorrow.

Good night.
