Susanne wrote that NU.nl proposed Laura Faber as an ordinary citizen in an article about people taking in status holders, without mentioning her work in the reception and integration of newcomers, according to her. Susanne called Faber the director of Bureau de Werkvloer, a teacher at PONT | Zorg & Sociaal, project leader for the Development of Municipal Reception at the municipality of Hengelo, and founder of the integration school and language school Iedereen aan Boord in Deventer. According to Susanne, Faber's income came 100% from projects and assignments that were directly related to refugee reception and the integration of newcomers and status holders. Susanne called the portrayal misleading and wrote that she had submitted a community note. According to her, it was ready for review and would only become visible to everyone after enough reviews. She thanked Hilda Spruit for her response under the article and provided two sources. https://t.co/htqtVhSm1c https://t.co/4GI1TXQwZR #journalistiek #vluchtelingen #integratie (translated)

Joost Jansen wrote that he had Chat prepare a speech for Rob Jetten in response to serious riots in Amsterdam. The proposed text stated that violence against society was unacceptable, while demonstrating and expressing criticism were part of democracy. The speech proposed three measures: maintaining the rule of law, supporting victims and affected entrepreneurs, and investigating the causes of social tensions. The text also stated that researching those causes was no excuse for violence. The recovery of trust, according to the speech, would depend on consistent action and rules that applied to everyone. #Amsterdam #democratie #veiligheid (translated)

Isa Yusibov wrote that October 17, 2003, was a day of conflicting feelings for him: he wished it had never happened, but he was also proud of it. He was 14 years old at the time and said his family had considered him an adult since then. The day after the presidential elections in Azerbaijan, in which his father played an important role according to him, Yusibov claimed to be one of the first victims of the repression against the pro-Western opposition. He wrote that he was beaten, humiliated, and spat on in front of about 300 to 400 students. Afterwards, he received his school file and was informed that he was no longer welcome because his father was considered a state enemy. Yusibov said that on his way to the exit, he made eye contact with teachers who had treated him kindly before the elections. Several teachers reportedly gestured for him to leave quickly. He wrote that the experience made him proud of his father and convinced him that the dictatorship would continue. A month later, his family reportedly fled to the Netherlands. The event compelled him to focus on geopolitics. Yusibov argued that the power transition surrounding Aliyev was a consensus among the West, Putin, Erdogan, and Iran. According to him, the West, led by Bush, had betrayed the democrats in Azerbaijan in favor of authoritarian stability. He also wrote that great power interests dictated politics in the Caucasus and that this situation had not changed 23 years later. Yusibov stated that his experiences had taught him how difficult it was to stand up for democracy, human rights, and the rule of law. He wrote that he had seen the first signs of undermining democratic principles in the Netherlands as well, by parties that he believed targeted democracy. He referred to a previous interview with NRC and said he would not allow the Netherlands to become a country where the government disregarded fundamental rights. #Democratie #Mensenrechten #Geopolitiek (translated)

Dr. Jan van de Beek stated that additional housing units that are not existing social rental homes, according to him, should not go to status holders, but to young and/or urgent housing seekers who are already living in the Netherlands.

Denkewel wrote that young Dutch people who had grown up in the Netherlands, according to him, had to travel daily to work far away by train while still living with their parents at the age of thirty. According to him, they paid taxes for new homes for wealthy newcomers and their families, who, according to him, received everything for free and with priority. He called the situation completely insane and stated that people who continued to defend the system while complaining about words that should not be said were lying and complicit in the deliberate destruction of the country. #Nederland #jeugd #wooncrisis (translated)

Sander van Dam wrote that the context, according to him, did not change the unfairness of the situation.

Paul said that after some consideration he had reported to the police against Minister of Housing Boekholt-O’Sullivan. According to him, the minister discriminated against indigenous Dutch people by giving asylum seekers priority in housing and telling young people that they could stay with their parents until they were 40. He argued that the asylum seekers he referred to had passed through three safe countries, and therefore described the treatment of indigenous Dutch people as discrimination and racism. Paul invoked Article 1 of the Constitution and said that everyone in the Netherlands should be treated equally in similar cases. He accused the media of discriminating against people with a non-Dutch background and of extensively covering slogans in Malieveld while remaining silent about the treatment of indigenous Dutch people. He called on other Dutch people to file reports on the same grounds. #discriminatie #racisme #rechtvaardigheid (translated)

Strijder124 wrote that Minister Boekholt-O’Sullivan (D66) only wanted to abolish the priority for status holders when there was a real solution. According to Strijder124, the minister said that many starters could continue living with their parents, but she also saw distressing situations. According to her, municipalities and provinces had urged for extra housing for people in trouble. The minister, according to Strijder124, asked for a few days to wait for her plan, which should give people access to housing. After that, it could be seen what the priority position would look like. Strijder124 concluded that nothing would change. #woningnood #huisvesting #statushouders (translated)
