Péter Magyar won the election in a blowout making Orbán’s party practically irrelevant. He is an ex-Fidesz member that broke off and is heading a broad grassroots party.
He himself is old-school conservative coded, but his party is very broad and includes everyone from racial justice activists to members of the military to quite literally random people. Most of his party is brand new to politics and made up of working class people, most new representatives were like the town doctor or engineers before.
The party’s policies are a working social net including investments into education and healthcare, an independent prosecutors office and EPPO membership, a special office to prosecute corrupt politicians, adopting the Euro and contributing to a stronger EU and stronger voices to the Eastern EU in Brussels, support for racial, sexual and other minorities and so on.
Victor Ghoulash and his Paprikash Party beat out Orban’s Fedora Party. Ghoulash wants to instate caps on rent, oil, and produce prices and align Hungary strategically with Turkmenistan.
The Atlantic does not do journalism lol it’s a neo liberal rag. Case in point, pretending that swapping a far right politician for another is somehow proof that “illiberalism is not inevitable”
Wild headline and no I’m not reading the Atlantic.
Who won the election and what are his politics?
This has been headline news all over the world for the last 24 hours. Go read your news source of choice and quit yer bitchin
I have. He was a member of orbans party. Not really even a liberal lol.
Then why did you ask that question
I take it back, he is indeed a liberal
Lol me pointing out that the Atlantic is a neoliberal rag. It was rhetorical.
Guess you’ll have to read it to know.
No, I don’t lol. I know where the Atlantic stands.
The words in the article are what we’re talking about. Not whatever your fake anger is about.
Based on the article’s headline I can’t imagine much of substance was said.
Believe it or not, they had the opponent’s name.
I feel the same way about your comment
Europes most corrupt state is your answer to something?
Too woke for you I guess. Rupert Murdock probably owns something more your speed.
You know Wikipedia is free, right? You can look up Magyar and see that he’s a fascist, right?
Takes one to know one I guess
He was Orbanz guy until a few years ago when he saw which way the wind was blowing.
It seems illiberalism is indeed inevitable then

Yeah, that’s a major WTF, especially since he wants to rejoin the ICC (or rather cancel the process of leaving).
My guess would be that he is doing all the shit he thinks is the default.
Good question how that turns out. Especially with the current state of international relations.
If the Atlantic is praising him, you already know what is his politics.

So what are you, some kind of far-right?
So, a polite fascist
A
conservative“centrist”.Victor Ghoulash and his Paprikash Party beat out Orban’s Fedora Party. Ghoulash wants to instate caps on rent, oil, and produce prices and align Hungary strategically with Turkmenistan.
I was making a point about asking for internet commenters to educate you because you don’t trust journalists.
