  • Pim Fortuyn (2001) - A close analysis of Pim Fortuyn's life, both personal and professional, released only just before his untimely death.

    In recent history, Dutch politics has been measured and moderate. Pim Fortuyn has changed that: a former sociology professor, he now pushes his right-wing populist agenda. The media loves him - an interview tends to guarantee an outrageous headline. Branding Islam a 'backward religion' and fighting against immigration, his party is backed for 15-20% of the vote - a sizeable amount.

    Bright and brave! His eyes were wide open. He broke the stereotype that being gay means left and weak.
    So sad he is no longer with us

      He was called a populist by the establishment. In retrospect we can see clearly what the media and the politicians did to him. And these tactics are still applied to the newcomers.
      The things he said that were labeled as 'extreme' (of course always quoted out of the context) are nowadays put forward by politicians of main stream parties.

    "The Dutch could loose their reputation of tolerance ..."
    A tolerant society needs to be protected against intolerant ideologies. Pim Fortuyn stood for that.
    He forced all political parties to face up to the issues that they had preferred to conveniently ignore.

      That was a political assassination.

    You can call it populist because it was somewhat simplistic. But to the average men this was and still is the most realistic and practical solution.

    Love how incredibly biased reporters can be, downright : "comfortable egomaniac." And the translation (subtitles) is terrible; very much painting him in a wrong picture, deliberate. This was an openly GAY politician seeing with a Moroccan boyfriend (in America that would be equivalent to someone running for president, openly Gay, with a Mexican boyfriend to put it in perspective.) He was a sociology professor, and she definitely hasn't done her research on what he stood for and professed.

  • @teqfreak
    @teqfreak Před 2 lety +4

    The sad thing is that many people call him populist (opponents) or visionair (proponents), but the simple truth is that he was neither of those, and just proposed simple straight forward solutions that would benefit the common man. Instead of pulling up the facade that makes everything unnecessarily complicated to hide from the common man that there is no intention to do anything to benefit them, but that the big capital is served instead.
