Hungary can no longer be considered a full democracy, the European parliament has said in a powerful symbolic vote against Viktor Orbán’s government.

In a resolution backed by 81% of MEPs present to vote, the parliament stated that Hungary had become a “hybrid regime of electoral autocracy”, citing a breakdown in democracy, fundamental rights and the rule of law.

The EU members won’t defend their own national borders and hate anyone who does.

The Hungarian government has taken to the disastrous policy of actually doing what their voters want. Too much of that and the whole global scam collapses.

They’ll drive Hungary to completely align with Russia.

The Ukrainian supporters who infest this forum will be besides themselves with delight.

The EU is a dictatorship run by descendants of the Third Reich, so there’s that.

Apparently the definition of democracy now is following what Klaus Schwab and George Soros want equals good and doing good for your nation’s citizens is bad.

There are some here that have set up Strawman arguments promoting support of the EU while simultaneously trying to deflect attention away from the massive protests in Europe against gas shortages.

Says a rubber stamp for an autocracy.

Hungary has good stuff but also some problems.

But EU is in no position to criticize, pot and kettle. EU is worse and Hungary has room for reform whereas EU is entrenched and powerful.

Hungary has protected its borders. They did not allow illegals to pour in. Good for them.

You go Hungary. Stand strong for your beliefs. The EU is no longer a league of nations. It is a dictatorship.

I’ve been an Orban fan since 2016 when I watched and read this speech:

Orban’s Historical Speech Puts Hungary on a War Footing (speaks truth about Muslim immigration)
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3411401/posts

The YouTube vid is long censored, but there is a full transcript in post 5. At least read the part starting with “Europe is not free,” about half way down (though the entire speech is worth reading). Orban called the Euro globalist idiots on their ridiculousness long ago.
