This unveils the real nature of our “democratic” institutions: whoever enforces control over people and guarantees stability (no matter at what cost) takes it all. I see no difference between this and other autocracies the media despise so much these days. We’re all in the same boat. Sinking boat.
All my adult life I have been living under the rule of Orban, more than a decade now. Your hope decreases year by year, as he always wins his most important domestic and international political battles against all odds. It’s incredibly exhausting.
Now I live in western EU, because I gave up on the hope that Hungary will ever change. Yet my tax money will still continue to fund the infinite apetite of him and his friends.
At least I hope the EC didn’t become his bitch (again) for free, and Ukraine will get the needed funds.
You mean the billions that could have feed people, help solve immigration issues, war with Russia or issues with Israel. That billions that people trusted EU to do the right thing to only be used in the most meaningless way?!?!?
When you throw the word nazi around in an unfounded manner like this, it loses its meaning completely and whatever you tried saying loses all credibility. I’m not a fan of Orban, he is a corrupt authoritarian, but most definitely not a nazi.
There can be more than one Nazi party. In german we have AfD, der Dritte Weg, NPD, freie Wähler and probably others I forgot. They are only differentiated by what horrors they want to commit against which foreigners and on whether they say the holocause didnt happen, wasnt that bad, should not be spoken about anymore or was a good thing.
Agree. So many slurs I could rightfully throw at him, nazi is not one of them. It’s important to be clear with these terminologies, or they will be emptied out and cast aside. There are actual nazis in the Hungarian parlament, but they are a different party (“Mi Hazánk”, meaning “Our Home”)
Dr. Jens Foell tweeted “As we say in Germany, if there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with 11 Nazis.”
And that’s the truth. I don’t care that Orban is an opportunist, I care that he finds opportunity in the company of fascists and nazis. By proxy that makes him a nazi.
But that’s the most important thing, right? Using the exact right definition for you has more weight when he’s like 7/10 on any checklist and you can literally see him getting hard on nazi shit. Oh we can’t possibly misname a cunt, that’s not fair to… cunts? What the fuck do you want?
