Fun fact: in the 80′s the Dutch Unemployed Union held ‘fridge raids’ to protest against poverty. 

They’d find out when a politician of big boss who upheld poverty and starvation wages was speaking at some public even, then they’d carefully break into his house with a LOT of people and they would eat EVERY piece of food in his house and leave the empty dished behind without taking anything else. 

Direct action at its finest.

I want to believe this so badly, but I can’t find a source for it!

This is a tiny snipet of history in a time when there was a looooooot of activism going on so some newspaper articles is all I can provide.
