The farmer protests that changed the Dutch government have come to Germany
[American Thinker] The mainstream media is assiduously ignoring a fascinating story: German farmers are doing what Dutch farmers did last year; namely, rising up in a massive protest against their country’s globalist, climate change policies. With luck, these protests will have the same outcome, which was a massive shift to conservativism in the Dutch government during the last election.

Modern Germany is, in some ways, a very weird country thanks to the legacy of WWII. Its citizens have grown up in the shadow of their collective guilt for the Holocaust, along with the 80 million or so other deaths the Nazi war sparked. They are, in many ways, a very self-apologetic, self-loathing people.

In part to make up for their collapsing birth rate and in part to atone for their sins in the 1930s and 1940s, Germany has been inviting Muslims in since the 1960s, starting with relatively Westernized Turks and now including barely civilized Middle Easterners and Afghanis. They’ve always seemed blind to the irony of atoning for the Holocaust by inviting in the only people who hate Jews more than the Nazis did.

#1 What started in Canada matured in Holland. If Germany falls to populism, the globalists are in for a drubbing everywhere is the purportedly free world.
