This is actually my gripe with the Dutch pirate party. They are often very alarmist and exaggerate problems in the same way the parties they oppose do. I wish there was a party that's focuses on major issues in stead of exaggerating a small number of issues in order to get popular with a specific market.
- coretx 10y agoYou are right when it comes to the alarmism and exaggeration, it's a populist policy choice, detrimental to the roots of the party and something I totally disagree with.
- tripzilch 10y agoVery much agreed. If the Dutch PP was anything like the German, Swedish, Icelandic (to name a few) ones, I'd vote for them in a heartbeat, no second thoughts. But they just keep on making blunder after (sometimes well-intentioned, sometimes plain stupid) blunder, and it's just sad and disorganised. I admit I might still vote for them anyway if I can't find a party that better represents me. Fortunately we get quite a few to choose from! Dutch might want to take a moment and be thankful we have that :)
