Dance protest in front of the Dutch embassy in Copenhagen

Pictures of dancing cowboy's in front og the dutch embassy

Why are we dancing in the street in front of the Dutch embassy in Copenhagen?

    During 2022, the Dutch farmers have been exposed to heavy sanctions from the authorities. More than 11,000 farms have been closed.

    The state justifies the radical intervention by the fact that agriculture emits too much nitrogen, but it is my opinion and that of many others that there is another agenda behind it. An agenda which is about gaining control over food production and being able to create food scarcity. Why the authorities in the Netherlands and in most other countries want to create food shortages in their populations requires a longer elaboration, but broadly it is about creating momentum for a radical restructuring of our society also called "The Great Reset".

    The Dutch farmers have reacted with great force to the intervention of the authorities and have been demonstrated intensely all over the Netherlands. The rest of the Dutch population has also been preoccupied with the things that happened and everyone in the Netherlands knows about the matter surrounding agriculture and the intervention of the authorities. There are two symbols in particular that have been important in the Dutch peasant revolt. Red (cowboy) scarves and the Dutch flag upside down (blue at the top instead of red)

    As a tribute and support for the Dutch peasant uprising, we dance outside the Dutch embassy in Copenhagen.

    The music we dance to is made by the band Dolly and is called De Boer - No farmers no food. It is the official battle song of the Peasants' Rebellion and it is based on Billy Ray Cyrus' smash hit "Achy Breaky Heart".

    choreography is a four corner line dance in true country and western style. The choreography includes red cowboy scarves. The same red scarves that are used as a symbol of the Dutch peasant revolt.

    With this initiative, we hope to help spread joy and encouragement to the Dutch farmers in their struggle to be allowed to produce good food.

    Here is the official music video for Dolly - De Boer -No farmers no food

I have tried to translate the text into English. The task has been difficult as I do not understand Dutch, but only guess on the basis of my knowledge of other related languages.

    If anyone with Dutch language skills will help with a better translation of the text it will be greatly appreciated.

    Dolly - De Boer -No farmers no food lyrics:

    The farmer knows what he wants
there is no nonsense.
waking up in the countryside with beautiful things.
It has worked fine for years
They've got it in there blood
but they must also be able to
live off of it.

    That whining
that it burdens our nature
soon he will rise again.
He draws the trace.
and fills the barn with tasty food

    Don't tell the farmer
what he has to
what he must
what he can
It has been running fine for years
because it's in his blood.
and we can learn from him

    The farmers are willing to reduce nitrogen emissions, but it takes some time
to make changes
New liberals must relax their demands.

    And jumps into the verbal battle.
It's about principles and I
demand your respect.
EU citizen
Understand it!
No farmers no food

    Don't tell the farmer
what he has to
what he must
what he can
It has been running fine for years
because it's in his blood.
and we can learn from him

    The farmer knows what he wants
there is no nonsense.
waking up in the countryside with beautiful things.
It has worked fine for years
They've got it in there blood
but they must also be able to
live off of it.

    It's stupid to throw away good experiences
Because he managed to manage him self for years.

No farmers no food
