1: A large building that houses a contraption with a large set of sails that are spun around by wind, either to move a grindstone for processing grain, or a turbine to generate electricity.
2: A threat that doesn't exist. Derived from Don Quixote, who attacked a windmill with a lance thinking it was a giant.

"I would your worship take notice," replied Sancho, "that those you see yonder are no giants, but windmills; and what seem arms to you, are sails; which being turned with the wind, make the millstone work."

Like sweeping something under a rug. This is the post modern, gen z style way to imply a new connotation of the underlying political weight that we can hide something in place that is obviously going to out itself eventually, but since politics are so short sighted, it's fine... This is fine... We will just shove these here for now and pretend that the waste is not as bad for the planet as other thing like... Cow farts.
Definition: "Shoving windmill blades into a coal mine" is like trying to hide something that is embarrassing, illegal, or wrong, or trying to keep a problem secret. Like, sweeping something under a rug. The additional connotation is that there is an added layer of betrayal to the common man because something described this way means the thing is being hidden by the very body that promises to have our best interest in mind.
For example, when her mother found out she had cancer, and realized that it was likely due to the mother's habitual smoking for years, she chose to shove the windmill blades into a coal mine and just convince the girl that it was just a cold that wouldn't quit and vitamins would be fine.

A situation in which a woman sits cross-legged on a Lazy Susan holding a traditional wienerbrød Danish pastry. She is spun right round as several men take turns attempting to glaze it. Add schnapps for taste.
Hej Karolina, hold still! l can't hit the wienerbrød if you're conserving your angular momentum like that. This isn't anything like the Danish Windmill Experience my mom passed down in our family!

On a warm spring night, as the sun set, a spell of flatulence came upon me, I had a split second to decide, the calssic Dutch Oven on my partner, or something new, and so a plan was hatched. Using my toes i quickly jammed on the highest setting of the fan next to the bed, and flipped open the douvet cothers, she could not anticipate this move, nor counter the attack, I proceeded to release a days worth of clenched up ass savings, the air was instantly filled, and funneled entirely at her. In between her gags of desperation for clean air, only receiving recyclyed clouds of my ass gas from the fan, over and over, I was thrilled to see my master plan had worked, and ludly coined it as a new invention, The Dutch Windmill, To fart into an active fan, causing the recipient to recieve a blanket of "spicy" air.
I tought my friend how to do The Dutch Windmill his gilrfriend the other night 0r Ive just been Ducth Windmilled and now I can't breathe
