Orbán: “We have won a victory so big that you can see it from the moon, but certainly from Brussels”

  1. Sure. And all it took was spending a dozen years dismantling or appropriating media outlets, rigging the voting process, packing courts, turning state institutions into Fidesz apparatchiks, funding an anti-democratic movement with Russian money, and attacking the EU even while your mooch state is the largest single beneficiary.

    But other than that, it was a fine win.

  2. Why does this sound like he is forced to be in EU? Last time I remember u can leave if you feel like you need to fight against them and nobody will start shooting at you

  3. And thanks to you, Poland will no longer block the EU from beating down on you, for trying to turn your country into a mini-russia. You alienated and enraged the only one that supported you. It might take a while, but you won’t be that cozy any longer

  4. This fucked needs to get his head bashed in.

    Western Europe needs to save itself from the mess Eastern Europe has made of the EU.

  5. Great, so we continue to give money to this asshole? Honestly, I’d rather immediatly admit a wartorn ukraine that fights for it’s western values and willingness to strive for a better europe into the EU than keeping orbans hungary which just blocks everything and is effectively a putin lapdog and sucks money intended for hungary’s infrastructure into his own pockets.

  6. Very interesting how the opinions on this subreddit will make you think that Orban is widely despised by 99.999999% of all Hungarians… and then the overwhelming majority goes on to vote for him.

    I mean, obviously this subreddit is biased, it IS reddit after all, a watering hole for progressives… but I didn’t think it was THIS heavily skewed. It seems moderators have done a very good curating job, making sure only certain partisan views from the progressive, glowbalist, post-Europid side of the spectrum are allowed here. If the mods wanted this place to be an echo chamber, they succeeded with flying colours. Well done guys!

  7. Well, that’s it then. Expecting Hungary to be kicked out of the EU. I’m not sure if Poland is gonna cover their backs this time given he called Zelenskyy his opponent.

  8. For many Hungarians who have voted for the opposition this was the final hope, the final chance. Many of us are planning to move to other countries. We feel terrible, because we had to keep explaining everywhere that no, not all Hungarians like that, many people want the change, but this just proves we were wrong. Enough people are bought, enough people are brainwashed with propaganda, we can’t do anything. Now our only hope is that we can leave and people won’t hate us for being Hungarians and understand that we want nothing with this, nothing with Orbán.

  9. Any illusion the eu has that it could simply out wait the eastern countries aversion to their greater integration push has surely died. Whatever you think of this leader, he leads an eu member state and nato member.
