Imagine comparing a bunch of disruptive vandals losing their tax exempt status to tax paying citizens and businesses losing their bank accounts... 🙄

Dutch parliament voted for an interesting form of financial repression: revoking the tax exempt status for donation to Extension Rebellion. It was just a motion, which will likely be ignored because it's illegal.

But the political message is clear: if you do something the politicians in power don't like, there will be financial consequences. Seems a matter of time before they'll find their bank account closed for unclear reasons.
