You can say whatever you want about Eva Vlaardingerbroek, she certainly dares to say what people already thought in the 1930s. That’s what Nazi speech expert Edoardo Fratelli says. “Vlaardingerbroek’s speech during the conservative CPAC conference was really an eye opener for people who lived almost a hundred years ago,” he says.
“Taking on and arousing deep hatred and fear of strangers, the idea that Europe is degenerating due to the influx of brown people, the demise of the evening land – her speech was really a coming home for people who were born around 1900 and lived in a world where no Holocaust had yet occurred.”
Audience members of the speech in Hungary and commentators on the Internet were wildly enthusiastic about the relative freshness of Vlaardingerbroek’s ideas. “With today’s knowledge, with what happened during the Second World War thanks to fascist ideas, you might think: ‘well, is that necessary?’, but if you imagine that you were living in the 1930s, century is alive, radio is a brand new medium for you and fascism is still a fresh idea, what is wrong with someone who calls for taking up arms against a vaguely defined enemy image, purely fueled by racism? Let’s fucking go, right?”
