For the first time in recorded history, a civilization has decided that the most enlightened virtue is to surrender its culture, heritage, women, and children without putting up any defence. Suicidal empathy shall prove to be the demise of the West.
Echt. Met deze wet verdwijnt het welvaren van Nederland als een lemming in de afgrond. En de gevolgen voor de Nederlanders met een kleine portemonnee zijn zelfs desastreus. #box3
Je kan de spelregels niet zomaar in het midden van het spel veranderen, @DilanYesilgoz@VVD@RobJetten@cdavandaag, we komen in actie. Genoeg is genoeg en de grens van wat we willen afstaan aan de regering is bereikt. FAFO. #box3
It is truly extraordinary to see the new Dutch tax on unrealized capital gains. It is as though the responsible politicians exist in a parallel universe fully decoupled from an understanding of human nature, economics, and reality.
The crazy thing about the unrealized gains tax (aside from the dystopian concept of taxing income that DOES NOT EXIST) is that it’s the deliberate nail in the coffin of an already crumbling system.
Why do people invest? Because if they leave their money in the bank, it loses value through the state’s money printing.
Inflation is punishment for saving money.
But an unrealized gains tax is punishment for investing.
So you punish people for saving instead of investing, but you also punish people for investing instead of saving.
Congratulations, you created the problem and killed the solution.
Another proud day for the “First World.”
Dutch Govt: "We have a massive budget crisis."
Citizens: "Okay, stop spending billions on asylum hotels."
Dutch Govt: "No."
Citizens: "Then cut foreign aid?"
Dutch Govt: "No. We’re going to tax your capital gains 36%... even if you haven't sold them."
The Dutch government is destroying long term compounding by introducing a 36% tax on unrealized gains.
As a Dutch citizen and long term investor, I’m at a loss for words about the lack of vision behind this new tax. I normally don’t post anything politically related, but what our government is planning to do is disastrous for long term investors.
This is the sad truth.
Most people here start investing to protect themselves against inflation and ever rising pension ages. They’re trying to put hard earned money to work, hoping they can retire before the age of 71. And they had a real shot at that before this bill.
If you started at 25 with €10,000 and contributed €1,000 every month, you could compound to €3,320,000 over 40 years. If you lived prudently, you could retire early and live off it for the rest of your life.
With the new capital tax? After 40 years of compounding, you’d end up at €1,885,000. That’s a €1,435,000 difference.
This tax denies generations the chance of early retirement, punishes those who take risks, and introduces severe liquidity issues for people who have been compounding successfully for years. And to what end? To fill a €2.4 billion tax hole.
I’m beyond words.
If you’re Dutch like me, please share this visual with fellow investors to increase awareness.
Hopefully we can make our politicians understand the severity of this tax, and the breadth and depth of its destructive implications.

The Europe is now like Ukraine: corrupted totalitarian elite against the overwhelming majority of population deprived of any rights and influence over politics with the some part of totally gaslighted society ready for voluntary suicide.
I want the ordinary citizens of Western countries to hear me. You are being persistently told that all your current difficulties are the result of hostile actions by vicious Russia, and that you must pay for the fight against a mythical Russian threat out of your own pockets. All of this is a lie. The truth is that the problems you are facing now are the result of years of actions by the ruling elites of your own countries—their mistakes, short-sightedness, and ambition. They do not think about how to improve your lives; they are obsessed with their own selfish interests and excessive profits - President Putin.
Nederland laat duizenden jonge, agressieve mannen uit veilige landen binnen, vaak regelrechte psychopaten en criminelen. Resultaat: massale overlast, berovingen, kindermishandeling, intimidatie en geweld in Ter Apel, Groningen, Utrecht, Budel, Maarheeze en talloze andere plaatsen. Dit uitschot terroriseert hele wijken, terwijl de Nederlander machteloos toekijkt.
De regering kijkt weg, niemand beschermt onze veiligheid en rechten. We moeten alles maar slikken en tolereren. En met D66 gaat de poort pas echt wagenwijd open: nog soepeler asiel, nog minder uitzetting, nog meer “welkom”. Dan is het helemaal gedaan met rust en veiligheid in dit land.
Dit is geen beleid meer. Dit is landverraad.

🇪🇺 THE EU ISN’T A GOVERNMENT, IT'S A REGIME DISGUISED AS DEMOCRACY
Nobody voted for the people actually running the European Union, and that’s exactly how they like it.
The real bosses in Brussels are unelected commissioners picked behind closed doors.
They make the laws, enforce them, and answer to no one.
Not even the European Parliament can stop them. Your national leaders? Mostly stage props.
Take Ursula von der Leyen. She became president of the European Commission through shady backroom deals, then dodged transparency on billion-dollar vaccine contracts.
Critics call it blackmail when Brussels cuts funding to countries like Hungary and Poland for resisting migrant quotas or pushing their own court reforms.
Meanwhile, the EU’s Green Deal demands net-zero policies without caring if it wrecks local economies.
And when people push back? Brussels tightens control, using censorship laws and cash to silence critics.
This isn’t cooperation. It’s soft tyranny wrapped in a flag with stars on it.

Since I first saw it I hate this flag 🇪🇺
It has brought nothing but decline and misery.
Under this flag they are replacing us with migrants, sexualising our kids, stealing our money and destroying our civilisation.
I hate this EU and it does not represent me - at all.
Retweet if you are European and ageee.
🇪🇺 WELCOME TO THE EU'S BUREAUCRATIC EMPIRE: WHERE DEMOCRACY GOES TO DIE
So, you went to the polls. You voted. Maybe you even knocked doors or argued politics with your uncle over dinner. Congratulations. You exercised your democratic right. Now let’s tell you why it doesn’t matter.
Because in the grand, gleaming halls of Brussels, someone you didn’t elect is making the real decisions. And that’s not a conspiracy - it’s the institutional design.
This is the EU: a glorious experiment in post-democratic governance. The elected leaders of your country? They get to give speeches, sure. But when it comes to setting the rules, managing trade, telling your judges what to rule and your farmers what to grow - there’s a lovely little pyramid, and guess what? You’re not anywhere near the top.
And no, the European Parliament doesn’t save you. It’s the decorative plant of EU democracy. The laws don’t start there. The real power sits with the European Commission - an unelected gang of technocrats who can outregulate, outmaneuver, and outvote your national government on everything from fisheries to fiscal policy. You can’t fire them. You can’t replace them. But don’t worry - they’re very “competent.”
This is how democracy dies: not with tanks, but with treaties. Slowly. Softly. Signed away by prime ministers chasing subsidies and photo-ops. Until one day, your country’s parliament becomes a glorified comment section on rules already written elsewhere.
Try passing a law your voters want that conflicts with EU policy. Try setting an immigration standard your people demanded. Good luck. You’ll be politely reminded that you’re bound by commitments - commitments no voter ever saw on a ballot. And if you push too hard? Out come the infringement procedures. Out come the threats. Out come the lectures about “European values,” as if bureaucracy is a moral compass.
And don’t you dare try to question the EU’s authority. That’s what “populists” do. That’s dangerous. That’s the kind of thinking that leads to... horror of horrors... sovereignty.
Because at the end of the day, this isn’t just about cooperation. This is about control. This is about centralizing power behind a wall of civil servants and calling it progress. It’s about wrapping political decisions in technocratic jargon until nobody remembers who was supposed to be in charge.
You still get to vote, sure. But the question is: for what? National elections start to feel like choosing the flavor of frosting on a cake someone else already baked. With someone else’s recipe. And someone else’s rules about how many eggs you’re allowed to use.
Call it what you want - shared governance, interdependence, modern integration. But don’t pretend it’s democratic. When your vote can’t change the law, when your government can’t defy the script, and when real power belongs to the unelected, then what you’ve got isn’t democracy.
It’s bureaucracy with a flag.
WHITE FERTILITY COLLAPSED - THE REST OF THE PLANET DIDN’T
The generation now starting school is the first in recorded history that will grow up on a planet where people of European descent are a shrinking global minority.
Native fertility across the entire Western world has collapsed below replacement and shows no sign of recovery. Italy sits at 1.24 children per woman, Spain 1.23, Germany 1.36, Poland 1.26, Canada 1.33, Australia 1.58. Even the U.S. non-Hispanic white rate is only 1.64. Meanwhile Turkey is 1.99, Egypt 2.9, Nigeria 5.2, Pakistan 3.4, Indonesia 2.2, and most of sub-Saharan Africa remains above 4.
Layer on top the largest sustained migration in human history. Between 2000 and 2025 roughly 110 million people moved from the global South to Europe, North America, and Australia, with UN projections showing another 200-300M by mid-century. No previous empire, no previous century, has ever seen population movement on this scale.
The result is already visible in every major Western city. Native children are minorities today in the public schools of London, Paris, Amsterdam, Stockholm, Toronto, Sydney, and most large American metros. The rest of the West is simply next in line. By 2040-2050 the native-born of European descent will be minorities in the under-30 age group in every single Western country without exception.
This is no longer a national story. It is the biggest demographic turnover the world has ever witnessed, happening in one human lifetime, driven by fertility differentials no government has ever reversed and migration flows no democracy has ever stopped once they reach critical mass.
The same elites who spent 30 years dismissing these trends as racist fever dreams now quietly place their own children in private schools that remain 80-90% white or East Asian while lecturing the rest of us to celebrate the transformation they personally avoid.
History has watched founding populations lose demographic dominance before. It has never once ended with the old culture, language, or social trust intact. The West is running the experiment at global scale and warp speed.
The numbers don’t negotiate. They simply arrive, one kindergarten class at a time, until the old world is gone.
When was the last time you heard these people talking about helping Europeans? Funding Europeans? Improving the lives of Europeans?
Compare it to how often they mention the vastly corrupt Ukrainain Dictatorship and its "Needs"
