    Van der Plas just represents the Dutch conservatives who have their misplaced national pride put in the farmers. There's no fascist rhetoric, antidemocratic values, or any of the other factors you'd expect to go with a Volkisch agrarian antidemocratic union.

    There's completely different material conditions to the development of fascism in the current day. If you can read Dutch, I can link an interesting master's thesis on the modern Dutch far right (since Fortuijn) and how they relate to classical fascism.

    There's actual fascists in Dutch parliament, in the FvD party, namely Baudet and van Meijeren.

      If it looks like a fascist, and gets praised by fascists, it's a fascist. I'm sure if you're a fascist there's a lot of nuance, but fash gonna fash.

      Drone strikes are the solution to the problem here.
