Hello, in your diary, a photo from April 27, 2019, shows a group of young people lined up in a row. One of the young men is now appearing here in the Rhineland with the AfD. Can you tell me where the photo was taken and which group it is?
Thank you very much.
Hello Andreas. I looked this up in my archives. It concerns a local youth movement called VNJ, which is linked to Vlaams Belang, a fascist ideology that promotes white supremacy. Although I try to avoid prejudice, I have to conclude that these are boys and girls who believe in a fictional history, who consider ignorance a blessing, and who view the world from a position of superiority. All the more so because the location of their demonstration of order, discipline, and obedience is one of the most diverse places in a small provincial town. Pure provocation, in other words. It’s a shame that these young people have such a narrow worldview. I would like to take them one by one to the shelter where I volunteer. Perhaps some of them have since become aware of the enormous opportunities that a diverse society offers. Maybe I’m being naive. It’s also not surprising that some seek connection abroad. Ignorance… Marching behind a flag… We have seen this before. I understand that those who are completely rooted in this ideology have no understanding for a different point of view. So be it.
Ps the town was Roeselare, Flanders, nearby Brugge.
Clap clap clap for the caption !
D’accord, mais pas de clapclapclap pour leur idéologie d’homme blanc effrayé et des filles de uniforme, mal informées & pauvre uniforme…
On est bien d’ accord !
