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.

Excuse, what the fuck? No, Magyar is no fascist unless you’re one of these guys who just make a joke out of this word.

He’s a Christian democrat, not alt-right. Think CDU, not AFD.

So the people that gave Hitler power?

Totally not fascist, just historically the only people to willingly allow fascists to take over in order to fight any kind of economic progress.

He just kicked the fascist out, try and keep up.

No, he kicked out a figure head fascist. I guarantee for six months after they take office they’ll come up with excuses for why Orban’s cronies shouldn’t be removed from their appointed positions, how they’re victims in all this taken in by said fascist, and why nothing of substance should change.

Like liberals always do.

The ratchet once again finds a resting position before the next crank.

Not every country’s politics is like the US. Please read up on Hungary in the past 2 years and you might get less cynical.

There is no “ratchet” in Hungary. It literally could not get worse save for going full-on Belarus. And the people, the party and even the electorate behind Magyar are people who mostly haven’t been in politics yet. The “ratchet” party has been kicked out of politics this election along with the government.
