It's Afrikaans, not Dutch. It's close though. We can understand written Afrikaans.

For non-speakers, it's kind of like reading Scots as a monolingual English speaker. https://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scots_leid
Did they ever fix the issue that an American teen used a hilariously bad interpretation of the Scots language to write thousands of articles on the Scots wiki?

Only partially, unfortunately. There aren't a lot of people who speak full on Scots, the majority of Scotland speaks a dialect of English with a handful of Scots vocabulary now. It's an endangered language.
That explains the neutral tone. It's something important far away.
Also that newspaper is called "The Fatherland".
It's a pretty good hint of where they stand in the whole Left-Right political spectrum.
It's Afrikaans, not Dutch.
Hitler dood? Lekker bru!
Would you translate the bold text below the subtitles?
Crude translation, trying to keep the word order the same.
Hitler's death and Dönitz 's acceptance of rule in Germany led a British paper to write: "Never before in the history has the prospect of peace so suddenly changed to the possibility of a protracted war."
Similarly, if a Dutch person ever asks you to "kiss my moist cunt" or (kies mijn mooiste kant), don't take offence.
I mean if it's moist I'm doing something right. Right?
"Look at the sea" in finish (katso merta) means "dick shit" in Italian (cazzo merda).
Fun fact:
In Dutch, two o's make a long o sound. Dode. "oe" makes the "oo" sound.
I'm dood.
Wat nou?
Who is saying English is bad? You save yourself so much trouble not having to like genderize all the words.
I offer you Indonesian, which has a word for “he/she/they/it” (dia) but no words for “he” or “she”. Indonesian has words for older sibling (kakak) and younger sibling (adik) but it's rare to specify the sibling's gender. It ever has rude slang for “primary reproductive organ” (titis, among many others) without specifying wether it concerns a vagina or penis. TL;DR Indonesia is based.
Oh wow just like Turkish. Probably little sexism in Indonesia and none in Turkey, right?
