they used to be "article 1" but got owned in court

quote:

The party was sued by anti-discrimination think tank Art.1 for trademark infringement. The judge's verdict was in favor of Art.1, and therefore Simons was forced to change the name of the party. On 29 October 2017, the new name was announced: BIJ1. BIJ1 refers to the Dutch word bijeen, which translates to "together".

That child totally had it coming. Nobody should be able to be out at dusk except cars.

Rebekka Timmer, member of the commission for the party program and number three on the list for the 2021 elections,[35] however, shows an indifferent view in regards to the term communism, but admits to drawing inspiration from anti-capitalist thinkers, such as Karl Marx.[36] She does oppose communism as it is envisioned by China and the Soviet Union, calling it state capitalism.[37]

the Dutch Socialist Party used to be named 'Communist Party of the Netherlands (Marxist-Leninist)' and was a Maoist party that split from another Maoist party because they (the splitters) didn't think intellectuals should be allowed to join

they have since moved so far to the right that they kicked their own youth organization out of the party en masse for being 'infiltrated by communist radicals'

he's got to put together a coalition. he'll most likely get first crack at finding allies but it's possible someone more palatable gets the position to draw in the sucker parties

why was Baudet so sidelined? I dunno how he let geert steal the edgy crown from his head like thst

Baudet is even less principled than Wilders, and said on different occasions that he's only in it for the money. Also he got clubbered over the head with a beer bottle last monday after which he canceled a fascist gathering.

He was p much fine after the attack so i guess that made him look cowardly or something but idk. He's probably not enough of a real nazi for most

Also Wilders is way more of a populist that pretends to look after the common man, while Thierry is an Elitist that thinks he's above everyone else.

It doesn't matter though. The issue isn't whoever is Hitler, the issue is the millions who desperately want to vote for one.
