User ID: 572408 Netherlands 05/01/2010 03:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Amsterdam, Leiden, Rotterdam are kewl, the people are not, just slobs, arrogant, narcistic, I dislike em. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 497757Rotterdam is terrible. Worst town with worst people in the whole country. But we're so diverse in the Nederlands, asshole! euh, yeah; there's a great difference between people in different regions in this country. Most noticable is between Randstad and rural regions. Within those regions you have differences too. Ok, people in Rotterdam and Den Haag are quite the same. But you could see clear differences between someone from Rotterdam or Amsterdam, for example.

They do this without actually even knowing Americans other than what they see on television. Oh well. That is the way it is I guess. Fuck em. |

Khim User ID: 759722 Netherlands 05/01/2010 06:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well, lets summarize it. Theo OP sucks.. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 794588Does that mean I won't be getting a Christmas card from you this year? I'd send you one, but you'd have to tell me a story. Something about where you come from. How did your people get here to America. Why did they come? What do you hold most dear about your heritage from them? I could give a flip about nationalism, really. I love the diversity of this planet's peoples and cultures. Histories rich with the struggle and strife of the human condition, yet filled with spectacular achievements that have laid the foundations for other emerging cultures over and over again. Oh sure, there are some who have serious issues. Some even have subscriptions! But all-in-all most of us on here really do care about the planet we live on and the people who share it with us. We are the ones who ask, "How did we get here and why?" We do stand on the shoulders of giants. What has been will be again. We are all in this together, this human experiment we call existence. It is through our diversity that we will overcome. So? How did you get here and why? :D |

First off, I haven't read the entire thread, but I don't hold Americans in low regard, that would be generalizing... This thread seems to inspire generalization from both sides though. How many people from the Netherlands have you actually met? |

But we have less than 1 in 1000 ppl in jail, while USA incarceration rate exceeds 1 in 100. For those that are bad at math, you put more than 10 times as many ppl in jail as we do. |

In the United States you go to jail for this. Nope, drugs is not illegal. That's too easily put. It's illegal to grow marihuana in quantities more than 5 plants. It's illegal for a coffeeshop to buy larger quantities, to sell to their costumers. It is illegal to smoke weed in an other place than a coffeeshop or at home. Fresh mushrooms have been banned, so that's gone... Not much left huh. It's only legal for a coffeeshop to have 500grams in stock, for a person to buy and possess not more than 5 grams... (which was 30, or is it still) to say that drugs are legal here, is a great misunderstanding "A strange game.

Dutch have Big Mouth whilst Americans have (are) Big Asses. They both stink. The Dutch have become very rude lately, even to eachother, beacause they are supressed by their Robberment and pushed away to give space to criminal desertpeople. They have this tiny country ya know. Their brains shrunk tiny as well as they stay on the sinking ship and refuse to emigrate. Neh not true, many do, but these are most lefties. Have some compassion folks! Dutch are Dutchbags and American are Arrogant pricks. You really are meant for eachother. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 958992 United States 05/02/2010 11:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Post after post from the Netherlands is liberal anti-American bullshit. Wtf? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 794588Perchance that has as much to do with America as with the Dutch. If you ask people the world over if they have a favourable opinion of the US, America only scores better then Israel, Iran, and North-Korea. You guys have a very serious public image problem. The Dutch are an opinionated and vocal lot. And 90% of them have access to the 'net and know a bit of English. So they stick out a bit more. Also, liberal ain't a cuss-word over here. It doesn't even mean the same thing. Liberal=socialist. op is an idiot liberal does not = socialist look up the word liberal you moronic choadlicker |

Navneev User ID: 957850 Netherlands 05/03/2010 09:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | America is still one of the best *overall* countries in the world. No, it is far from perfect, but if you travel much, you will know what I mean. Yes, there is more polarization and issues today than 10 years ago, but heck, the same applies in Holland and many other countries Quoting: Anonymous Coward 952386The Americans are generally very helpful and the nature and sights can be just amazing (depending on which part of this huge country you are in). The Netherlands is also a good country. Yes, has it's issues, but it is relatively save, with a nice country-side and history and also very central for springing off to other EU destinations. (Many international companies in Holland, just for that reason.) The Dutch are VERY helpful with tourists and will gladly, generally, speak English willingly. Dutch can actually be MUCH more friendly with foreign visitors than their own people in many cases! Leave politics largely out and I think you'll see most countries are filled with fine people. the dutch are into presentation and only are friendly to tourists because of their dutch nationalism. they want to look good to outsiders. once you live there their true colors show. nasty vile race TPTB are proud of. noone can understand the dutch until they speak the language and i speak it excellently and trust me they're not what the english-speaking tourist experiences. i'm not saying they're all bad. there is 10% of dutch who have escaped to other countries and i've met them. many who came to the united states to escape the socialist state they have this strange habit of leaving their curtains about because they're a "shame-based" society and want to make sure everyone knows they've got nothing to hide. i knew a gay couple who lived in a small town and the neighbours complained because they kept their blinds closed. the dutch are annoyingly stubborn and arrogant. they call americans arrogant but i always tell them americans are more ignorant than arrogant i could could go on and on Well Frenchy,,,I hope your Dutch is better than your English. Anyway,,no one likes the French,,talk about arrogance |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 957360I've been pointing this out since Trinity started up the identifying flags. You will find the Netherlands at the top of the leftist antichrist heap, followed closely by the Norwegians, Scandinavians, Canadians, and Aussies. They're all a bunch of Socialist, Communist, marxist, Leftist, Liberal, Progressive slimeballs. How the fuck can you be liberal/progressive on one side and maxist/communist on the other side at the same time? You really seem to have no fucking clue what you are talking about :>. |
