The so-called “Transparency Law”, currently pending approval, significantly undermines freedom of expression in Hungary — and its impacts are unlikely stop at the country’s borders.
The real question isn’t whether Orbán will get more votes, they are very obviously in a spiral, and every month something happens that deepens that spiral.
The question at this point is whether Tisza makes a big enough fuckup in the next year, which I don’t think they will, and whether the economy recovers, which is close to impossible, or whether there will come an issue that will be a big enough distraction, bigger than the war in Ukraine.
So the real fears are either civil war, or Hungary starting a war with a neighbour just to emulate Netanyahu. Please support Ukraine, because if you don’t, it is a proven fact that Hungary would have already attacked it.
Fingers crossed. 🤞
