The link being presented between the ‘Antwerpse handjes’ as chocolates and the atrocities of Belgiums colonial past is wrong. The chocolates represent a reference to the myth of Brabo and of how the name Antwerp came to be. https://www.brusselstimes.com/162991/bart-de-wever-takes-up-arms-for-contested-antwerp-hands-congo-belgium-bakery-chocolate-jos-hakker-dutch-jewish-provinciestraat https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2022/12/fact-check-antwerp-handjes-sweets-are-not-a-tribute-to-the-congo-atrocities-of-leopold-ii-of-belgium.html https://www.sjokolat.be/en/antwerp-hands/ https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/en/2023/04/12/fact-check-false-claims-about-antwerp-hand-biscuits-and-belgium/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1696075732487692323

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
