You can crush them if your army is big enough. IIRC the rebels stacks are between 25k and 35k. But depending on the circumstance, you can get them every 5-10 years for for every province that meets the conditions.
But if I read the events correctly, you can avoid the two events that are on the wiki if you have at least 1% autonomy in the provinces. And the first event will only fire once and the second event will only fire once per province. But there is a third event(flavor_bur.18), that is not in the wiki and that can fire if the Netherlands exist:
