“So hi everyone, did you really distinguish yourselves?
I saw yesterday that everyone was there — all Hungarians from all over the world, all 15 million of them.
It was really great to see that ‘Bütyök’ didn’t use you — the crowd supposedly worried about children — for his own political gain. It fills me with joy that at last we could talk about child protection without party politics and lust for power… or did it not actually happen that way?
So I have a question for those of you who think that the leader of Tisza did not use you yesterday for his own political benefit. All of you who marched on the Chain Bridge: why didn’t I hear your concerned voices when the authorities declared that the nationally known stylist, Elle Mark, had abused a minor child? There is documentation of this. They also declared — unfortunately — that the case had become time-barred.
Why didn’t I hear your concerned voices asking how such a horrific crime — the abuse of a minor — could ever be allowed to become time-barred? Why were you silent then?
All of you who take every baseless claim as fact when it comes from DK or Juhi — who themselves are also politically exploiting these issues — whenever they talk about pedophile crimes: why do you dismiss as a conspiracy everything that Róbert Ábrahám says about the leadership of RTL?
Why didn’t any of you go out to protest when an ally of the Momentum party leader — a deputy mayor of Zugló appointed by Momentum’s leader — slapped a child, a student entrusted to him? Why didn’t you protest when this deputy mayor admitted that he slapped a student and then said he had no intention of resigning because the student spoke rudely to him?
This aggressive animal called László Várnai refused to resign from his deputy mayor position because, in his view, the sixteen-year-old student deserved to be slapped for speaking rudely. And he did this as a supervising guardian.
Let me repeat: this was not a delinquent child from a reform school, but a mouthy sixteen-year-old student who, according to this left-wing deputy mayor, deserved to be slapped.
Why didn’t you get outraged over this story? Where were the concerned looks, the teddy bears, the “flooding Tisza over the Danube”?
I’ll tell you: you were nowhere.
You didn’t flood the Danube because you are manipulated and exploited people. Yes — you. People who, lacking independent awareness, are currently being used by a pampered Buda elite boy and his entourage so that they never have to work again for the rest of their lives.
Out of sheer ignorance, you swallow everything they put in front of you, while they carefully make sure you only hear what they say and only believe the lies they feed you.
What a fine country this would be if such a manipulated crowd became the majority — people from whom nearly every form of independent thinking has been eradicated, and who have been trained almost entirely into one-dimensional thinking.
But it’s not too late for you either to learn how to read with comprehension and to inform yourselves objectively. Believe me, it is an uplifting feeling when a person is capable of independent thought.
I challenge you to this — because you don’t deserve to be exploited in such an ugly and disgusting way either.”**
In short, what is actually happening:
- Diversion: The issue of child protection is being used to discredit a specific political demonstration and its participants.
- Whataboutism: Instead of addressing the event itself, the speaker brings up other cases — often old, legally closed, or only partially substantiated — to relativize and deflect criticism.
- Collective stigmatization: Protesters are not treated as individuals but as a “manipulated crowd,” which is a classic propaganda technique.
- Victim-blaming and condescension: Participants are portrayed as ignorant and easily manipulated, while the speaker adopts a position of moral superiority.
- Protection of political loyalty: The goal is not child protection, but to assert that only their own side can be legitimate, while all others are framed as acting out of political self-interest.
Plainly put:
👉 What matters is not what happened, but who is saying it.
👉 Child protection here is merely a tool, not the objective.
