    Is this man the “master of Europe”, or a spent, used up tool of Putin?

    What’s the difference? The result is important, and for now Orban has too much influence on the overall situation. Democracy is a nice thing, but is it democracy? Are people involved? This passive position is of no good. “Eventually everything will be ok”. It won’t. Actions are needed. Active actions. Most problems have a tendency of worsening if not addressed fast. You know, like a health. Imagine a damaged tooth.

      Active actions are being done. If they weren’t, Orbán would be nice and cozy. He already had to go home from stirring shit in the EU by the way, and go campaigning, trying to salvage his rule.

      People are involved by the way. The representatives of the new government will have primaries, which is a new for Hungary. And again, almost half a million people were out on the streets of Budapest on Pride, but tens of thousands of people protest on a normal week now, with actual events turning out hundreds of thousands.

      And peaceful protests do work if they show that the admin is powerless to stop them and so many people are on board. Wait for the 23rd of October, that’ll be a big one.

      There are thousands of self-organised groups all across the country, working the streets against Orbán as well.
