Confisquates?

I am a bit surprised to hear that the U.S. government can still order around Dutch police like a butler. Maybe the Dutch regime is struggling to actually effectively decouple themselves from the U.S.? Would love to hear an expert weigh in.

Funny how American authorities did not do much about "antifa" and A/I and only acted once it was clear they were going against Zionist interests... This is shameful and the Dutch should be also ashamed to act as lap dogs.

If you remove the paywall and translate it's the A/I group being shut down https://www.state.gov/releases/office-of-the-spokesperson/20... The Dutch police imaged the drive, gave it to the Americans and gave the server back to XS4ALL which itself appears to have shutdown too I think

A/I? You mean S/I, right?

Is there really a sovereign country in Europe that runs its own shit and is not subservient to Uncle Sam?

Headline seems to be a bit strange as the A/I collective has dissolved officially as of September 18. The history of events can be followed here [0] [0] https://keepitfree.ai/

How much more on the nose can you be than being anti-antifascist? It is obvious the double negative cancels out. To all the Americans who think authoritarianism is something that happens elsewhere and that they would've stood up and stopped it: What are you waiting for?

it's funny to look at people who are outraged by us interference in dutch politics, but at the same time, no one cares that the united states imposes sanctions on countries that pursue their policies towards iran and russia, interfering in their foreign policy. Double standards and damn BBC bots

A/I was filled with calls for violence and direct threats. This is a good thing. Besides, Parler had the same fate and was forced to change their infrastructure. Instead of the government, it was big tech colluding with the Biden administration. I thought this was a good thing, according to all of the articles and comments I saw shortly after on HN.
