Orban has conceeded - Lemmy.World

Seems they can get the necessary 2/3 of the 199 seats to start righting the changes done by Orban

Fucking finally.

Eat shit, fascists.

To be clear, Magyar is also a fascist but a bit less mask-off about his corruption. It’s a (slight) improvement but not some progressive victory it’s touted to be.
How so? Hes aligned with the EU, aligned with Ukraine, and wants Russia to kick rocks. Hes also talked about unfucking hungary’s courts, media consolidation and electrion rules that the outgoing facist rigged.

He’s also extremely nationalist, anti-immigration, and his attitude to LGBT is silence (which is only marginally better than hatred)

Hes aligned with the EU

EU is a trading bloc and fascists love money. More extreme ones hate others more than they love money, but it’s not universal.

aligned with Ukraine, and wants Russia to kick rocks

There’s nothing stopping fascists from supporting Ukraine, there are plenty of nazis there too. It’s not as bad as russian propaganda makes it out to be but it is a reason why some on the right/far-right support it.

Overall I’d say he’s like a Hungarian Meloni - a fascist (or close to one) willing to cooperate with liberals to make money together.

He’s against continuing Hungary’s further path to a dictatorship without due process or real elections, which is the best Hungary can get at the moment.
