Over the past 16 years, together with the national government, we have achieved a great deal: we built a work-based society, created one million new jobs, and introduced one of the most generous family support systems in the world — instead of doing what the EU promotes and replacing missing children with migrants.

We did not allow migration, gender ideology, or war to put our country in danger.

It is no coincidence that Hungarians pay the lowest utility bills in all of Europe — and even now, in this era of dangers, we are protecting energy prices.

These achievements also show that we can be relied upon, and that we carry through what we promise.

That is why Fidesz is the safe choice.

We have achieved that Hungary once again became a work-based society, and we created one million jobs. We ensured that while in the European Union it has become common practice to compensate for declining birth rates through migration, Hungary operates the most generous family support system in the world.

We managed to keep Hungary out of the entire liberal madness — including migration and gender ideology.

We achieved that teachers now earn a gross salary of around 950,000 forints, and doctors are also earning very well. We introduced personal income tax exemption for people under the age of 25. This year as well, we implemented an 11% minimum wage increase despite the difficult circumstances.

We achieved that people in Hungary pay the lowest utility prices in Europe.

Even in this situation we were able to provide not only the 13th-month pension but also the first installment of the 14th-month pension. And the list could go on: free textbooks and many other measures. We have accomplished a great deal together.

Let’s not forget these results. They are there. But we are not asking for trust simply by pointing back to them.

These results serve to show people that we are not speaking into the air.

You can rely on us — and we deliver what we promise.

1️⃣ The “We achieved” repetition technique (success repetition framing)

Excerpt

“We achieved that…”
“We achieved that…”
“We achieved that…”

Technique

The communication begins almost every sentence with the same formula.

This creates a classic propaganda rhythm:

➡️ we achieved
➡️ we achieved
➡️ we achieved

Repetition psychologically creates the atmosphere of a success story, even when some of the claims may be debatable.

Goal

  • create a sense of achievement
  • reinforce the perception of government performance
  • build a positive emotional frame

Effect

The reader may come away thinking:

➡️ “They achieved a lot.”

2️⃣ Selective reality (cherry picking)

Excerpt

  • one million jobs
  • family support programs
  • minimum wage increases
  • utility price policies

Technique

Only positive statistics are mentioned, while issues such as the following are omitted:

  • inflation
  • frozen EU funds
  • public debt
  • problems in the healthcare system

This is selective data selection.

Goal

Create a one-sided success narrative.

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ “Everything is working well.”

3️⃣ External enemy contrast (external contrast framing)

Excerpt

“In the European Union they replace missing children with migration.”

Technique

The communication presents Hungary as a positive exception, while portraying the EU as a negative example.

This is a contrast propaganda structure:

EU → bad model
Hungary → good model

Goal

Strengthen national identity.

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ “We are better than them.”

4️⃣ Cultural fear framing (culture-war framing)

Excerpt

“liberal madness”
“gender madness”

Technique

The political debate is framed as a cultural threat.

Key trigger words:

  • migration
  • gender
  • liberal “madness”

This is a classic culture-war rhetorical strategy.

Goal

Trigger emotional identification within the political base.

Effect

Politics is perceived as a civilizational struggle.

5️⃣ Stacking social benefits (benefit stacking)

Excerpt

  • teacher salaries
  • doctor salaries
  • income tax exemption for under-25s
  • minimum wage increase
  • utility prices
  • pensions
  • free textbooks

Technique

A rapid list of multiple benefits and policies.

This is known as benefit stacking.

The more items are listed, the stronger the psychological effect.

Goal

Make voters feel that:

➡️ “They receive a lot of support.”

6️⃣ Credibility framing

Excerpt

“We are not talking into the air.”

Technique

The communication pre-emptively defends itself against criticism.

The message behind the sentence:

➡️ “We have already proven ourselves.”

Goal

Strengthen the perception of leadership reliability.

Effect

Voters may be more willing to accept new promises.

7️⃣ Collective achievement narrative

Excerpt

“We have done a lot together.”

Technique

Government achievements are framed as shared national success.

This rhetoric strengthens identification between the government and the public.

Goal

Make voters feel:

➡️ they are part of the success.
