Hi from the Netherlands. We once again elected a right-wing government (though US-conservatives would call them leftwing), and this is exactly what's happening here too.

For here in the US the poor have been convinced they can't afford anything, when they can. And they're just hateful and racist and would rather go full dictatorship than share a nation with people of color. What would you say the reasons are the Netherlands is leaning right?
