Remember: Viktor Orban has built a corrupt, stagnant Hungary that is much poorer than it should be

@anneapplebaum poverty has the future

@anneapplebaum But hey, white male supremacists in Hungary can feel good about themselves even if they're struggling to make ends meet because their fellow working people without white male privilege are being punished even more than they are. That's the most anyone outside the 1% ever gets from supporting fascism.

@anneapplebaum checked the Hungary stock index BUX and it’s not too shabby: https://www.intellinews.com/hungarian-stock-market-among-global-leaders-in-2025-bux-jumps-40-419562/ - many things can be true at once but it’s curious that their companies do so well.

@anneapplebaum fun fact but all corrupted state are killed by the very own corruption that help them to be built (see russia, that lose a war due to the corruption in the country).

@anneapplebaum
Can true and good leadership make Hungary rise back to it's feet?

@anneapplebaum a couple of questions come to mind.

1. Why don't Hungarians rise up and kick Orban out?

2. Why isn't Hungary booted out of the EU?

@anneapplebaum
That's right, fascist fucksticks. You voted for racism and your share of the spoils, and you get, racism and poverty for yourself too.

@anneapplebaum as Long as all of his relatives are Fine with EUtaxpayer‘s Money, as Long as they got Rich Orban is
Fine.

@anneapplebaum What a very sad concept for americans

@kryten @anneapplebaum

Regarding 2 I think the EU is more intetested in preserving the union than to allow Hungary to set a precedent, which Orban would sell as Freedom Day and inspire other assholes.

Regarding 1. Let's see how the US will deal with their Orban and hope he does not entrench himself as successfully.

@anneapplebaum
Bitch, you work for a magazine whose owner was literally in the Epstein files. Like anything you have to say isnt tainted by the zionist agenda.

@anneapplebaum

And you're married to this freak.

@xgerman @anneapplebaum Companies <> people. Apparently the Dow Jones is 50,000 (dollars) and look what's happening tin Trumpistan.

@fireandice Uh-oh, someone feels the fire under thy bits. Yes, dices are rolling fast and eternal fire in the hell awaits, for your boss name and face in those files counts a legion, Anne's 393 times. And hers: zero.
@anneapplebaum ah

@kryten @anneapplebaum 1.:there's word if it, there is a party which may or may not try to kick them out...
2.: one political party and its voters do not make up an entire country... common folk, like me, already have very few rights, may we please retain some? ...although, i agree and kinda hope that happens after i take my, hopefully final, leave.
it really DOES suck to live here.
young people live within bubbles within bubbles ... i personally don't think there will be any change.

@anneapplebaum yeah, Hungary, Turkey, Russia have all kept it going through "elections"... Somehow people think pedo in chief in USA won't be able to... Still hanging on to that US exceptioalism while ruled over by a pedo.
