It's a very empty performance.

Yeah.

But Defend Netherlands, they also carried what we call the princess flag in the Netherlands.

Princess flag?

Yeah, the flag of the prince.

Oh, princess.

Yeah, and it's a variation on the flag that we have right now.

But it was co-opted by the Dutch National Socialist Party prior and during World War II.

Oh, dear.

So it's now heavily associated with those groups.

And that is the flag they choose to carry.

It is always telling when people are like, oh, this nationalist flag, the flag of our nation is not nationalist enough.

Let me find an obscure one from the past.

It has only been revived by fascists.

Yeah.

Well, we're getting to those variations, Molly, because the flag was not only used by collaborators, but they've also added, because just alluding to the collaborationists is not enough, they added a VOC logo from the Dutch East India Company onto the flag.

Wow!

Fuck!

Yeah, I can't believe we've opened that can of worms, because that's going to happen in Britain now, unfortunately.

I've put it in the chat, like something like that.
