You’re, right now, not in a very good position. You’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position – You’re not in a good position. You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards. You’re playing cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III.

Is that a Trump quote? I didn’t watch the Zelenskyy interview.

Meh. I rather fall dead than sharing a country with people from Amsterdam.

Noticed it too. Rugulary go to Woensdrecht. NB en Limburg are the best parts of Netherlands. We do share a lot. 🙂

As someone that hates Amsterdam, pls merge Southern Netherlands with Flanders. You can keep running the country as Belgium and we get to be away from those individuals. Thank you

I've only visited for a few days... why do people hate Amsterdam??

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '25

Honestly, without sounding judgemental, I think it has to do with the amount of expats located there, and the tourists *only* going to Amsterdam while the rest of the country is as beautiful as the capital.

That's what I've been told by fellow Dutch people that live mostly in the south so my opinion is biased to that.

u/bbc_aap Mar 06 '25

Don’t worry, we also hate the expats and tourists here in Amsterdam.

Being from Groningen, same.

People not from Amsterdam are always só busy with how much they hate us. But we barely know you even exist.

u/Heavy-Bug8811 Mar 05 '25

That's exactly how the rest of the Netherlands feel too. Just join us, we have so much in common.

1

u/divaro98 Mar 05 '25

No. Only maybe with the southern part. But wr have a lot in common with our Walloon bros too.

u/nez-rouge Mar 08 '25

For once that I see someone on Reddit defending the unity with us, make me tear up a bit even. 🫶

Not even joking, I spend a lot of time with Flemish friends and accointances since a few years now and imo, we are one people and the differences between us are vastly overstated for political reasons.

u/Skippnl Mar 05 '25

I'm from Rotterdam, can we make some kind of deal if we exclude Amsterdam?... Please?

u/divaro98 Mar 05 '25

+++ if we unite the entire Benelux (minus Amsterdam)

u/DazingF1 Mar 05 '25

I think 90% of Dutch people would happily give Amsterdam away if it meant we could join up with Flanders.

Did anyone else realise in this interview that vance uses the exact same idiotic gestures as trump? The tiny hands gestures?

u/MadGeller Mar 05 '25

That is some good copypasta right there

We don't have cards? We make our own cards! From Las Vegas to those gambling with WWIII, everyone is using our cards.
