        Yeah, the murder (and partial consumption) of the brothers De Witt was more or less the January 6th of the Dutch golden age. It’s part of the reason why The Netherlands is a monarchy now rather than a republic. (Admiral is a pretty good movie about what was going on politically.)

        But eat the rich, and all that!
