I was never a fan of Geert Wilders, the populist, right-wing Dutch politician, and I still am not. But now I am speaking up for him. The reason is that his right to free speech is under attack. He was found guilty in the Netherlands for ‘causing offense to a group of people’ (Moroccans), which is apparently illegal. I argue that this is a very bad thing and that we should not want this.

In other news, I’m now a Twitch streamer. Check out my profile here. There’s not much on it yet, but I plan to stream on Twitch somewhat regularly.

This website should also receive a rather substantial content update over the next week, so stay tuned.
