It's an edited image, but you are darn right. Proper communication is great
It is in the style of the original, where during Covid the page on “Migrating to the Netherlands” simply just started with “Do not migrate to the Netherlands”, before expanding on the Covid restrictions on place and what foreign nationals currently in the Netherlands are to do.
On one hand: Now that's loud & clear communication. On the other hand, “Just don't” really ties in to the stereotype of Dutch directness/rudeness.
Being direct is not rude, in my opinion. I don't know why people need things so sugarcoated. Being direct, to me, is a sign of respect
