I agree, but I don't think in black and white. My Dutch friend is probably completely oblivious to any of that, and he is a good person. Most people are probably in that same situation.
Would it be good for the government (or any government) to come out and apologize for shitty things that happened in the past? If course. But that isn't a reason to use blanket "we hate these types of people" statements seriously.
There are only two types of people I hate. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.
Why not the french or the british?
This was a joke, we don't actually hate the dutch
You might not, but I haven't heard them apologize for the Congo.

No, sorry, they have a blood debt, they must be purged.
