Bart Nijman wrote that the stuck plastic cap, in his view, symbolized the emptiness of European innovation. He stated that large technology companies and innovations in transport, logistics, and energy were mostly located in the United States and China. Nijman criticized the EU bureaucracy in Brussels and wrote that, in his opinion, it imposed new rules on workers and entrepreneurs while European companies weakened due to a lack of innovation and high energy prices. He mentioned companies in the steel and defense sector and German, French, and Italian car manufacturers. In contrast to Europe, he highlighted a man in the United States who, according to him, made cars drive with rocket boosters and thereby set an acceleration record of 0 to 100 in less than a second. Nijman concluded with the question of whether Europe would emerge from its own malaise and referenced images from several French cities that day. #innovatie #EU #technologie (translated)
Bart Nijman stated that the media had come to the point where they reported on a BNNVARA presenter who, according to him, called and harassed underage girls via WhatsApp because of a ‘White Power’ avatar. He wrote that the presenter had appeared at an NPO award show with an antifa necklace and referred to journalism in that context as ‘late stage journalisming’. #media #journalistiek #vrijePers (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that he saw signals everywhere that reminded him of a period in history he had studied in school. Although he believed that history would not repeat itself exactly or be predicted in advance, he saw patterns and practices in the current moralism, activism, and antisemitism that frightened him. He wrote that it should be prevented that descendants would later have to justify themselves to victims for the actions of their grandparents. At the same time, he stated that excuses were being sought to dismiss warning signals. Nijman said he was left with a bitter feeling from a piece by Rob Fransman. https://t.co/l6LTc1XoPm #geschiedenis #activisme #antisemitisme (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that, according to him, Elon Musk had considerable capabilities, despite earlier claims from many people and media who called themselves progressive. https://t.co/tyNTObzEt1 #Musk #Innovatie #Technologie (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that the police removed a sign reading "Fuck Hamas" during a pro-Israel demonstration in Amsterdam. According to Nijman, an officer told the demonstrator to take the sign down or leave himself, and made it clear that there was no room for negotiation. Nijman called it a double standard. https://t.co/TjjB3AWL9P #Amsterdam #Protest #Israël (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that criticism from the right was often dismissed as anti-left and sometimes as misogyny. He believed that Femke Halsema's handling of the glorification of Hamas, anti-Semitism, and the persecution of Jews — and her acknowledgment of the seriousness of this — should unite people in an unconditional rejection of her performance. Nijman also referred to what Jan had already written: the time of Eberhard van der Laan was behind them. https://t.co/iW13GU7zpH #Halsema #antisemitisme #politiek (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that he initially thought he was reading a satirical tweet, but concluded that the message was real. He said he should have known better because it was about Amsterdam, and suggested that common sense had long been lacking there, and that healthier eating apparently needed to compensate for that lack. #Amsterdam #GezondEten #Satire (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that he considered all 150,000 Red Line runners as useful allies of Hamas and Iran. According to him, Minister David van Weel thought differently about that. https://t.co/kYmloTNpqZ #Hamas #Iran #RodeLijn (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that according to him, it got a little worse every week and that the responsibility for it was increasingly out of sight. He stated that no one seemed accountable and that everyone was left to fend for themselves. #verantwoordelijkheid #maatschappij #samenleving (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that he wanted to establish a committee to prepare a celebration for the day when, according to him, the political chains would break and the Netherlands would be freed from Rob Jetten's "puppet prime ministership." On that date, he also wanted to commemorate the "past of mockery" annually from then on. #Bevrijding #Herdenking #Politiek (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that if slogans had been chanted in honor of the deeds of Anders Breivik, additional water cannons from Germany would have been called in, extra news broadcasts would have been scheduled, and Trouw and NRC would have published special supplements that day. #vrijheidvanmeningsuiting #Nederland #media (translated)
Bart Nijman quoted a statement from Pim Fortuyn from 2001, in which Fortuyn wished strength to anyone who thought that the aggression of Islam would be manageable. https://t.co/LlQ1xcadJU #agressie #islam #sterkte (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that the attached link was an appropriate reward for Maarten van Rossem. He used derogatory language about a conspiracy-theoretical view that he linked to Van Rossem and suggested that he was therefore entering a rabbit hole. https://t.co/i46HQ1CirC #complottheorie #konijnenhol #beloning (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that Dutch media in 2015 portrayed participants in the Ukrainian referendum, including GeenPeil, as antidemocratic and pro-Putin. Nevertheless, he called the referendum a great success. In 2017, according to him, newspapers and parts of the NPO tried to boycott GeenStijl but were unsuccessful. He also accused the media of labeling critics of Greta Thunberg as climate deniers in 2019 and of presenting support for Black Lives Matter as a civic duty in 2020, while according to him, Zwarte Piet was pressured with unfounded accusations of racism. During the coronavirus pandemic, according to Nijman, the media shielded criticism of the measures and labeled those who deviated as irrational. He argued that this permanently damaged the credibility of the press and trust in its fairness and objectivity. From 2021, he stated that media opposed the farmers' movement with reporting on nitrogen that journalists did not understand sufficiently, and starting in 2022, labeled critics of Ukrainian accession to the EU or NATO's contribution to the escalation as pro-Putin. Nijman wrote that after October 7, 2023, many media condemned Israel and Jews in general and based reporting on genocide and starvation on lies. According to him, the media concealed the reasons for Hamas' attack and subordinated facts to information from NGOs, including Oxfam. He also claimed that journalists who disagreed were not offering enough public dissent, partly because they had to save for a mandatory heat pump in 2028. Furthermore, Nijman accused the media of shifting their own problems onto disinformation and Elon Musk and of leaving X for their own, small online environment. According to him, DPG, RTL, and the NPO imposed standards that many Dutch people did not conform to. He wrote that readers should hate the mainstream media even more and asserted that the free press had again chosen the wrong side on October 7. #Media #Nederland #VrijePers (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that October 7 was a terrible day that reminded of the horrors of Black Saturday. According to him, that day showed how little it took to strip away the thin veneer of the Netherlands, from the press to the prime minister. He added that the day just didn't seem to come to an end. #herinnering #Nederland #geschiedenis (translated)
Bart Nijman asked if it was so difficult to only mention the victims of the Hamas terror on the day of remembrance. He used a gross insult in doing so. #Hamas #herdenking #slachtoffers (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that three years after October 7, propaganda continued to accumulate according to him, until the foundation for a lie was permanently established. #propaganda #leugens #waarheid (translated)
Bart Nijman wrote that Sidney Smeets had reportedly struck back and would likely respond fiercely to anyone who criticized his texts. Nijman used a derogatory term for Smeets. https://t.co/boHVycXAFH #columnistiek #Nederland #media (translated)
