There is no war! There is no war! This is what the Tisza supporters keep repeating. But there is! And Brussels, along with Kyiv, wants to drag Hungary into it as well! That’s why they want a change of government.
“There won’t be a war. Anyone who says otherwise is lying. There’s no need to fear war.” Like robots, the Tisza supporters keep repeating: there is no war, there is no war, there is no war. But there is. And it’s right next door. They just refuse to acknowledge it because that’s the order coming from Brussels.
The war is happening in our neighborhood, and Hungary would have already been dragged into it if the prime minister were not called Viktor Orbán. And now the oil has been shut off precisely to stir unrest and dissatisfaction in Hungary — hoping they can topple the national government and bring to power a Tisza government that has already made a pact with Brussels and Kyiv.
Let’s not allow it.
🧠 Rhetorical–Propaganda Analysis
Narrative:
“War next door + Brussels’ orders + government-toppling conspiracy → national defense”
Actors:
Orbán Viktor
Volodimir Zelenszkij
European Union
Structure: Technique – Goal – Effect
1️⃣ Repetition and caricature – “There is no war! There is no war!”
📌 Technique:
- Simplifying the opponent’s position (“like robots”).
- Dramatic repetition.
- Mocking, dehumanizing framing.
🎯 Goal:
To portray the opponent as irrational and programmed, lacking independent thought.
💥 Effect:
The audience does not hear arguments but sees a caricature—making it easier to reject the entire side.
2️⃣ Existential threat framing – “It’s right next door”
📌 Technique:
- Emphasizing geographic proximity.
- Activating security fears.
- Conditional future scenario (“They would drag Hungary into it”).
🎯 Goal:
To elevate the political debate into a matter of existential security.
💥 Effect:
Voters decide not between programs, but on who can “protect” them.
3️⃣ External control narrative – “The order came from Brussels”
📌 Technique:
- Sovereignty framing.
- Presenting an external center (EU/Brussels) as the commanding force.
- Depicting domestic opponents as executors.
🎯 Goal:
To transform the election into a question of national independence.
💥 Effect:
Political debate becomes a matter of loyalty:
“Hungarian interest” vs. “foreign interest.”
4️⃣ Conspiracy framing – “That’s why they shut off the oil”
📌 Technique:
- Interpreting an energy-related step as a political coup attempt.
- Attributing intentional destabilization (“to cause unrest”).
- Simplifying complex causal chains.
🎯 Goal:
To reframe economic hardship as a deliberate political attack.
💥 Effect:
Responsibility shifts outward, while internal decision-making fades into the background.
5️⃣ Savior framing – “If the Prime Minister weren’t called Orbán Viktor…”
📌 Technique:
- Linking national security to a single leader.
- Conditional catastrophe (“we would already have been dragged in”).
- Strong personalization of stability.
🎯 Goal:
To tie political stability to one specific figure.
💥 Effect:
The election becomes personal loyalty:
“He = peace”, “Others = war.”
