MODERATORS
Sure, but it's the amount of support he got that scares me. There's a lot of support for the right wing in the Netherlands. That means that either a lot of people support those views or are willing to put up with these xenophobic zealots just to make a statement.
Yes, the Netherlands is really two different countries when you separate the big cities from the countryside.
That is true for almost every country (with the main exceptions not having one or the other at all).
