  2. Their end will come. We will drive them out. We will succeed. We have to succeed!

  5. And that list contains all but 3 independent Hungarian media as of now.

  7. *A threat to Orbans ability to win the next election

  9. Hungary and Hungarians have to make their own fascist experiences it seems .. like the Americans they first need to shit on everyone to learn to be humble.

    Let’s humble them.

  10. Who is going to play 1956 again on the 70th anniversary next year? 🫡 

  11. A typical sign of a weak authority is the need to suppress enemies and challenging world views.

  12. Censorship bill – if they really are going to implement it, the Hungarians better take to the streets if they want to have any chance of having their freedoms protected.

  13. My heart breaks for everyone still stuck in that country

  14. I’m not familiar with internal Hungarian politics, so I don’t know how stable Orban’s rule currently is. I assume his popularity is on the floor but that doesn’t matter since elections aren’t fair.

    But from what’s happening in Turkey, this feels like Orban trying to push all the buttons to somehow cling on to power, sensing that his end is near. It’s what’s happening with Erdoğan. Obviously it won’t happen overnight, but eventually.

    Again, this is just me extrapolating from Turkey’s situation. I might be completely wrong about Hungary. Correct me if I am.

  15. > Hungary’s “sovereignty”

    As if Hungary’s government was sovereign and not a Russian puppet state by now lmao

  16. And Germany, Netherlands, Sweden and others EU contributors will keep throwing endless money on Orban. Zero asertivity, zero care. EU money at this point are corruption and democracy destruction disaster.

  17. Democratic countries could oppress the right based on the paradox of tolerance. Its obviously stupid to have authoritarian political parties exploiting democracy.

    EU ought to have cut funding to Hungary and Slovakia and suspended their votes solely on their support of Putin alone.

  18. As an Norwegian, this shit is the reason im skeptical about joining EU.

  19. Turkey, could you try not being a fascist dictatorship….for 5 MINUTES!

  20. They have a youtube channel called Patrióta and their recent videos are more and more shocking. They seriously consider leaving the EU. I won’t be suprised if the 2026 will be the last one.

  24. I will say no about journalist, even for how much i disrespect them, but à ban on NGO at least for a short period of time to make sure of their pedigree and their intention, yes.
    Rifmght now, we have ngo acting as fake nose for foreign influence and/or terrorist organisation that cant be removed even if affiliation is proven.

  26. oh no! what next? russian-style air breathing? russian-style water drinking?

  27. People will foam at the mouth about this, and than a minute later scream about how Twitter and TikTok are a threat to Europe and have to be banned, lol.

  29. “Only Russia is allowed to threaten our sovereignty” – Orban, probably

  30. Orban is so eager to make Hungary a Russian “flashlight”.
    For the uninitiated: Hungary is already stretched to the limit by Russian pipe.

  31. Can’t wait for a strongly worded letter from EU leaders.

  32. Why the hell is Hungary still in the E.U.?
    Damn, love the country but this is ridiculous.
