“Thierry Baudet is cast in the press as a racist and fascist.”

Which means he’s probably an outstanding choice.

"We are undermined by our universities, our journalists, by the people who receive our "art subsidies," and by those who design our buildings. Above all, we are being undermined by our political leaders."

That dude is awesome, and correct. I was in Amsterdam, Eindhoven, and other places in 1997. I truly enjoyed the people there.

A clique, a clique of jumped-up networkers, occupational congress people, people who have never read a book in their lives, and have no idea what the important issues are, in the long run.

Unfortunately, these people control the decision-making organs of our country and keep on making in a peculiar mixture of ignorance and cynical self-interest--time after time--the wrong decisions.

Consecutive Rutte administrations left the borders wide open, breaking immigration records again and again.

With all the many problems of immigration and integration that we already have there were again hundreds of thousands--from totally different cultures than ours--let in.

All the while the government also voted against our motion to send those Syrian refugees, who are able to return, back.

Then they signed the Marrakech Immigration Treaty alongside all the consequences that that will have in years to come. A absolute crisis with the police threatens.

I went Google searching for other images of Thierry Baudet using Google image search, and the image in your post, and in spite of plenty of similar images of him available, all the top images and links from Google had to do with the subject of tuxedos.

What's going on here? Why does all this happen? People don't believe in the Netherlands anymore, that is certain. No longer in Western Civilization either. No longer in our language, which is being replaced [by English] in our universities. People no longer believe in our arts, in our past. People no longer believe in our festivities, our heroes, our traditional urban architecture.

But in all that unbelief, in that immense vacuum, a cultural and spiritual vacuum, has sprung up, at the same time, a grandiose heresy. A new immanent religion, a political theology.

The members of the cartel [party], they believe in nothing, while at the same time worshiping a single idol, named Transition.

Hundreds of billions of euros, we even think a trillion euros total, if you add up all the costs, is what they want to sacrifice on the altar of this idol, in the form of windmills, heat pumps, solar panels, and other completely unprofitable projects, that bring us nothing, that don't help our planet, but that do cost us a lot of money en thus severely punish us.

It is a masochistic heresy, this secularized deluge myth, which in our time has mastered the hearts and souls of our political leaders. A mania.

Racist and a Facist? I know I’m a teen, but if the press hates him, he must be great...

What a guy! It's about time. The Netherlands have been run over by leftists for a half-century.

Think of what they have added to our nation -- New York was settled by the Dutch in the 1600s, and not only did they strongly influence our Founding. they spread out to all the dairy farming areas upstate and across the country. Milk, cheese, yogurt... The very name Yankee was a play on a Dutch nickname, "John Cheese" (Jan Kaas).

He mentioned the arts and architecture— Vermeer, van Gogh and Rembrandt, and the many Dutch Colonial Revival houses in major old cities like NYC and Philadelphia, plus Delftware pottery and tileworks.

The Dutch settled (and named) Brooklyn, and a Dutch descendant of the early settlers named Stryker was mayor of Brooklyn when its famous bridge was built.

Ha! Sounds cheesy. Webster's doesn't believe it, but they are left-wing, too.

Here is Wikipedia's version:
Yankee: Dutch origin

... Most linguists look to Dutch language sources, noting the extensive interaction between the colonial Dutch in New Netherland (now largely New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and western Connecticut) and the English in colonial New England (Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and eastern Connecticut). Michael Quinion and Patrick Hanks argue that the term refers to the Dutch feminine diminutive name Janneke or masculine diminutive name Janke, which would be Anglicized as "Yankee" due to the Dutch pronunciation of J as the English Y. Quinion and Hanks posit that it was "used as a nickname for a Dutch-speaking American in colonial times" and could have grown to include non-Dutch colonists, as well. Alternatively, the Dutch given names Jan (Dutch: [jɑn]) and Kees (Dutch: [keːs]) have long been common, and the two are sometimes combined into a single name (e.g., Jan Kees de Jager). Its Anglicized spelling Yankee could, in this way, have been used to mock Dutch Americans. The chosen name Jan Kees may have been partly inspired by a dialectal rendition of Jan Kaas ("John Cheese"), the generic nickname that Southern Dutch used for Dutch people living in the North.

The Online Etymology Dictionary gives its origin as around 1683, when it was applied insultingly to Dutch Americans (especially freebooters) by the English. Linguist Jan de Vries notes that there was mention of a pirate named Dutch Yanky in the 17th century. The Life and Adventures of Sir Launcelot Greaves (1760) contains the passage, "Haul forward thy chair again, take thy berth, and proceed with thy story in a direct course, without yawing like a Dutch yanky."...

Can you imagine a candidate in the USA running with views about art and architecture? That's no Yankee.
WELTWOCHE: After the elections, you said you won a battle. What does it mean for you to win the war?

BAUDET: There's much more to it. I believe that aesthetically, for example, we've chosen the entirely wrong direction in the West. We've left tonal music behind. We've left realist or mimetic painting behind. We've left traditional architecture behind. I'm deeply opposed to the fundamental philosophical principles of modern architecture. I think it's fundamentally wrong. linky

Awesome! He is a deep thinker; naturally, the anti-God philosophical movements attacked fine arts and have been responsible for the uglification of architectrue, music, dance, painting, film — so many of the media that affect young minds.

I also recall how much flak Giuliani took when he attacked the Brooklyn Art Museum for its obscene and scatalogical anti-Christian art. So you are correct; Americans have been too dumbed down to recognize many of the major sources of mind control.
