The Dutch animal feed company De Heus donated medicines and other goods to Russian soldiers at the front in Ukraine in December. The donations happened through a Russian subsidiary, which De Heus, owned by one of the richest families in the Netherlands, has not distanced itself from, the Volkskrant reports.

    And I’m sure these rich people will feel the full force of the law for breaking EU sanctions as well as a boycott by their customers for supporting a genocidal war… Oh, who am I kidding?

    Russia was guilty of the death of Dutch plane passengers, but they don’t seem to care. That’s treason in my book.

    There are two things in life I cannot abide. Those would be cultural intolerance, and The Dutch.

      Dutch people already fucking hate animal feed producers, because they’re the ones actively backing cattle farmers in their opposition of nitrogen regulation.

      The nitrogen issue is a huge problem for basically every last bit of nature we have, and thanks to the cattle farmers lobbying, it’s limiting the building of roads and houses.

      The animal food industry is directly and indirectly costing the Dutch people billions of euros.

      This just further confirms they’re fucking assholes.

      Yes, every Dutch person is directly, personally, and fully responsible for not preventing this.

      Like what? Having newspapers report on crimes and expecting law enforcement to follow up on it? I’ll get cynical when our legal system stops working, but for now I’ll assume the cogs will turn as they’re supposed to.
