BIJ1 (Dutch pronunciation: [bɛi̯ˈeːn]; lit. 'together'), formerly known as Article 1 (Dutch: Artikel 1), is a political party in the Netherlands. It was founded in Amsterdam in 2016 by Sylvana Simons, a television personality who was formerly connected to another party, Denk. BIJ1 aligns itself as an anti-capitalist, progressive left-wing party, advocating economic justice and opposing racism and discrimination in the Netherlands. According to the party, its two pillars are radical equality and economic justice. The party supports the LGBT community, stronger anti-hate speech laws and an end to ethnic profiling, and it supports intersectionality. Because of the party's left-wing radicalism, it is often cited along with socialist parties and movements. Rebekka Timmer, member of the commission for the party program and number three on the list for the 2021 elections, however, shows an indifferent view in regards to the term communism, but admits to drawing inspiration from anti-capitalist thinkers, for example Karl Marx. She does oppose communism as it is envisioned by China and the Soviet Union, calling it state capitalism. More information...
