  • For young people, No. 1 is becoming pretty clear, although parents influence is a thing.

    For a bit older people up to gen X, it’s “yeah sure but the opposition isn’t better” (which it is, but everyone is homophobic) or “playing two sides is smart” not realising how fucking cynical that is today.

    For even older people, ie retirees, it’s that Fidesz ramps up retirement pay close to every election like a pet-owner playing with their dogs.

    Note that what is now the Opposition had a speech recorded in 2006, where the party Leader, Ferenc Gyurcsány, openly said “We have lied through the last eight years” and “We fucked this [very vulgar version]. Not a little, [we’ve fucked this] a lot”. Orbán is obviously lying way more but he doesn’t say it out loud (Or is smart enough not to get it recorded).
