The strings attached to The Dutch are controlled by the student council of some high school in Japan.

[–] ReplicantBatty@lemmy.one 5 points 7 months ago

I'd watch that anime

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 41 points 7 months ago (1 children)

There are only two thing that I can’t stand in this world, people who are intolerant of other peoples cultures, and the Dutch!

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Well thanks! ;-)

[–] AeroRake@lemm.ee 33 points 7 months ago

GEKOLONISEERD

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 19 points 7 months ago

Did they just say “fuck it, leave the black line”?

[–] Red0ctober@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The Dutch??? This throws my entire understanding of the globalist hierarchy into question

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

They did sorta start the mega corporation, and speculative trading. Both of which kinda ruined the world (assuming capitalism isn’t necessary for innovation, which I think probably true).

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 6 points 7 months ago (2 children)

But wouldn't daisy-chained puppets like this be increasingly difficult to control the further from the start you go?

I don't think it's possible to get anything below Aliens to do anything but flop around wildly.

[–] wieson@feddit.de 3 points 7 months ago

Have you seen our world?

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Above the Dutch is a machine learning algorithm which so far has managed to learn to make the bottom marionette appear to vomit, and nothing else.

[–] AbackDeckWARLORD@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 months ago

There's only two things I hate in this world: people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

For those not in the know: Prince Bernhard (deceased), husband to former queen Juliana (d), was infamous for his (heavily debated) membership of the Nazi party and first chairman of the (also heavily debated) Bilderberg conference.
Aside from that, the royal family is very, very rich and has a lot of influence over the world. Part of their wealth is supplied by the Dutch government, without clear numbers and lots of misrepresentation on the yearly budgeting, a government that is by the way nicely massaged by the many global companies having a nice office in the Dutch tax haven.

[–] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

So how does that make the Dutch control the aliens? If there really are intelligent super beings with incredible technologies visiting our planet and influencing things, why would the Dutch be able to control them any better than Israel or the US gov?

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

We won’t say, it is rather embarrassing

[–] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I promise I won't tell.

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

The Dutch East India Co didn't go away; it just went underground.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

It all eventually comes back to Lisa's Reverse Vampires.

[–] profdc9@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Are the Dutch the same as the lizard people? Because if not, I don't get what this is saying.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

The lowest level should also be the Dutch, and loop back to the top.

I don't get it... Why the Dutch?

[–] eatthecake@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago (4 children)

My housemate is dutch. He will find a dutch connection to everything on the planet. My coffee is dutch, the stockmarket is dutch, cheese sandwiches are dutch, the computer chips are dutch, nasi goreng is dutch, it's all fucking dutch in his mind. If aliens landed he would probably claim that they came because of the dutch.

He would also like everyone to remember that the nazi's stole the dutch people's bicycles and how dare anyone not know this.

[–] Darkblue@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Well, to be honest, apart of the aliens thing, everything you said is true.

So how is your housemate wrong?

And aliens? That's an American thing. Only Americans are abducted and only America gets attacked by aliens in the movies. (And South-Africa)

[–] Rev3rze@feddit.nl 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I don't think they're necessarily saying their housemate is wrong. I took it as them just pointing out how it gets old fast. Which is also my interpretation of what the meme represents.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

London gets attacked on TV a lot, though.

[–] woelkchen@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

So a former colonial power influenced many things on Earth? Surprising.

[–] quicksand@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Love the nasi goreng reference!

[–] ryan213@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 months ago

Ah, OK, makes sense to me now. Lol Thanks!

[–] Fleur__@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Were you just on board with all the puppeteers until the Dutch one ? XD

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Until? Isn't the Dutch the first puppet?

Check out the Boontavista comedy podcast out of Australia. One of their segments is DutchWatch!
