Amsterdam's head of transport has announced plans to ban petrol and diesel cars in the city by 2030.

The clean air action plan aims to make the Dutch capital a "world leader in emission-free transport".

Transport chief Sharon Dijksma said residents "live a year less on average due to dirty air" and that the plan should "prolong the health of the average Amsterdammer by three months."

But the plan has already incited strong reactions in the Netherlands with one motoring organisation branding it "bizarre" and wondering how normal people would afford electric cars.

The plan, which would be applied 20 years before the Paris Agreement aims to slash greenhouse gas emissions, would require up to 23,000 electric charging points by 2025. The city currently has 3,000.

    So what you are sayin is there is no true Scotsman eh?
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman [wikipedia.org]

    Jew is a race not a religion, and it is ok to send them to concentration camps so you can gas them, really you just said that to me?

    You literally just tried to justify murdering people wholesale based on their genome. In fact you encouraged it.

    Tell me more about gassing them. What was it like?

    You act like a classic agitprop. You talk like you swallowed the SVR playbook, hook, line and sinker. This is why I called you a traitor earlier. Except after going over your posts I realized you are a complete amateur at it. SVR wouldnt be dumb enough to hire you and soylent isnt influential enough to make it worth their while to target.

    Point of fact you are a run of the mill anti-semite who happened to encounter some old Russian and German propaganda while browsing stormfront and being unable to think for yourself, you swallowed it because it aligned with your biases, just fess up and own it.

    Perhaps the most interesting thing about your posts is that a person does not rise to your level of dysfunctional obsession without being in love with the subject matter.

    You intend to shock and be offensive but have you put any thought into what it says about you that it is men you are talking to and men you are talking about when you are getting your jollies off?
