Outrage over South Holland province's apology for slavery past: "A hypocritical display!"

The news about the province of South Holland apologizing for its slavery past evokes mixed feelings. While some see this as an important step in honoring history, others cannot help but think this is a cultural Marxist development.

Why should we apologize today for something that happened centuries ago? Should we be ashamed of actions that took place at a time when norms and values were different? Isn't it instead more important to focus on the challenges of today and the future?

It is understandable that some people want recognition for the suffering that slavery caused. But let's face it, it is unreasonable to blame current generations for something they had no influence over. Making excuses for something for which we are not responsible is more like a political game than genuine introspection.

PVV party chairman Henk de Vree rightly reacts sharply to the province's excuses. He points out that slavery still exists, albeit in other forms. He emphasizes the harrowing circumstances in which people, including children, are forced under appalling conditions to mine raw materials for, for example, batteries used in the so-called "climate crisis. These modern forms of slavery deserve as much attention and action as the past.

It is high time that the province of South Holland takes responsibility and concrete actions to address contemporary forms of exploitation and injustice. Simple excuses are not enough. There must be a real effort to promote justice and equality, not only in words but also in deeds.

Help DDS through these difficult times. Help us make a fist against the mainstream media as well as the party cartel. Fight side-by-side with us. Donate on BackMe and fight side-by-side with DDS against the globalist elites.

In fact, apologizing for slavery's past may backfire. Instead of reconciliation, it may lead to more division and resentment. Remembering our past is important, but let's focus on promoting a free society where everyone has equal opportunity and respect, rather than unnecessarily dwelling on the past.
