Babies having babies is all about that #nationalist subjugation. They want more #tax payers, more #rent money, more #subscribers, more #poverty, because as we say in Norway: more wants more.

This is also what #Putin wants, because the #nationalist doesn't care about the citizen, the consumer or the individual.

You are but an #asset ment to worship the #state.

Hungarians vote in landmark election that could unseat Orbán
Orbán, a Eurosceptic nationalist, has carved out a model of an "illiberal democracy" seen as a blueprint by Trump's Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement and its admirers in Europe.

Hoewel meer pro-Europa dan Orbán, blijft Magyar een 'black box' voor Hongaarse koers

<p>Volgens Hongarijekenner Krisztina Lajosi is het nog maar de vraag of Hongarije zich volledig op Europa richt als de uitdager van Viktor Orbán, Peter Magyar, aan de macht komt. "Hij was recent nog fan van Orbán. Ik weet niet wat zijn politieke visie is. Hij is geen euroscepticus, maar wel nationalistisch", zegt ze bij WNL In de Kantine.</p>

A quotation from Orwell

It is important not to confuse nationalism with mere worship of success. The nationalist does not go on the principle of simply ganging up with the strongest side. On the contrary, having picked his side, he persuades himself that it is the strongest, and is able to stick to his belief even when the facts are overwhelmingly against him. Nationalism is power-hunger tempered by self-deception. Every nationalist is capable of the most flagrant dishonesty, but he is also — since he is conscious of serving something bigger than himself — unshakably certain of being in the right.

WIST Quotations

#Orbán is running for his 5th-straight term as “prime minister”. He & his #nationalist #populist #Fidesz party are facing their toughest race in 2 decades against a center-right challenger, #Tisza party led by Péter #Magyar, that could bring an end to Orbán’s 16 years in #power.

Orbán has bristled at the slightest mention of the #election by any of his partners in the #EU, decrying any expressions of support for his opponent as a grave breach of #Hungary’s sovereignty & meddling in the election

A quotation from Orwell

A nationalist is one who thinks solely, or mainly, in terms of competitive prestige. He may be a positive or a negative nationalist — that is, he may use his mental energy either in boosting or in denigrating — but at any rate his thoughts always turn on victories, defeats, triumphs and humiliations. He sees history, especially contemporary history, as the endless rise and decline of great power units, and every event that happens seems to him a demonstration that his own side is on the upgrade and some hated rival is on the downgrade.

Countries all around the world are tightening requirements for citizenship, permanent residency and work visas.

All seemingly in direct reaction to #republican #racist right wing #nationalist #fascism in the USA, joining in to #deny human beings basic #dignity and #rights based upon (at best) artificial provincialism, and of course plenty of that outright #bigotry as well.

It's awful.
