Humberto Tan opened his new Saturday talk show yesterday with a kind of monologue in which he lashed out at VVD minister Dilan Yesilgöz. “What threat to the rule of law?”
Dilan Yesilgöz, Minister of Security and Justice, arouses enormous annoyance at Humberto Tan. She has spoken out against the woke community in some lecture this week. According to the minister, woke wants to ‘cancel what they don’t like’. “You can only participate if you belong to the right group.”
No sweet animals
It leads to fierce criticism and therefore also from Humberto Tan. Yesterday, in a monologue at the start of his talk show ‘Humberto on Saturday’, he first mentioned the unrest about Ongehoord Nederland. This public broadcaster has been discredited because of racist expressions in their opinion program.
Humberto: “Yuval Harari says it very nicely in one of his books: ‘In case you didn’t realize it yet: we sapiens are not such sweet animals at all. We can really cheat on other sapiens because they happen to have a different skin color, speak a different language, or have a different faith.’”
Sneer at Dilan
Woke wants to tackle all that injustice properly, Humberto explains. “All who are very woke against that falsehood, who demand equal rights or who ask to take each other into account, are dismissed – even earlier this week by our Minister of Justice and Security – as a kind of danger to the rule of law.”
Humberto berates Dilan. “In the eyes of the same minister, wokism and virtues are undesirable and are actually kind of suspicious. Well, I don’t think virtue is a bad word at all. On the contrary. You can also be a nerd. Yes, who doesn’t? I do. But above all – and that is why I say this – watch this woke film.”
‘This video is good’
Then Humberto starts the video in that viral has been about the reactions of black children to the black Ariel in the new Little Mermaid movie. “The woke discussion has started this with this result. The video is good from all sides. It shows how important it is that you are seen. Especially if you are very young.”
According to research by EenVandaag, Dilan is one of the most popular ministers of this cabinet. Humberto: “I also think it’s good that she just speaks out, only you can of course contradict it. There is nothing wrong with arguing against a minister and entering into a substantive debate with it. Fine.”
