It is terrible to be confronted with the horrors of war. Reality hits you in the chest. What has been happening just a few hundred kilometers from us for four years is distressing and frightening.

Péter Magyar, Gergely Karácsony, and the other protégés of Brussels may try to bury their heads in the sand on command and loudly insist that we should not talk about it. But for hundreds of thousands of people, this horror is not a conditional tense or a future scenario, not a nightmare — it is the cold, heart-wrenching, irreversible reality.

To ignore the fact that Brussels leaders are marching into this war and want to drag Hungary into it as well — to conceal and relativize this — that is the real crime.

There is no place in public life for anyone who wants to hide the horrors of war from the people, because without facing them, no responsible decision can be made on April 12. What a hypocritical and two-faced person you are, Péter Magyar. You are outraged by a video, but not by reality itself. You want us to bury our heads in the sand and ignore the horrors around us. In my view, there is no place in public life for anyone who wants to conceal the atrocities of war, because this too is something we will decide about on April 12.

I know that everyone hates being confronted with the horrors of war. But for many people, not far from the Hungarian border, this is unfortunately their reality. I have visited Transcarpathia several times and spoken to a mother who will never get her son back. A life senselessly lost. I have met a little boy who will remain an orphan for the rest of his life, because he lost his mother during the war and his father because of the war as well.

We do not like to face this, we do not like to see the horrors of war, and we think it cannot affect us. Yet, unfortunately, the direction Europe is now heading — with EU leaders proclaiming that by 2030 we will be at war — paints this bleak future for us. In April, we can say yes or no to this, and only Viktor Orbán can say no.

1️⃣ Shocking Visual Emotional Trigger

If a video was indeed produced portraying a child’s father as being “executed”:

📌 Technique:

• trauma trigger
• emotional overload
• fear-based mobilization

🎯 Goal:

• provoke an immediate emotional reaction (anxiety, anger, fear)
• shut down rational evaluation
• turn the electoral decision into an emotional reflex

This kind of imagery is not meant to inform — it is meant to shock and steer.

---

2️⃣ Moral Exclusion (“there is no place in public life for that”)

📌 Technique:

• moral delegitimization
• ethical exclusion of a political opponent

“There is no place in public life for that…”

This is not debate — it is moral banishment.

🎯 Effect:

• those who disagree are not merely mistaken
• they are framed as morally unfit

This is a powerful polarization tool.

---

3️⃣ Total Framing of an External Threat

📌 Technique:

• “Brussels is marching toward war”
• collective intent attribution
• projection of future certainty (“war by 2030”)

It sounds as if a concrete, irreversible decision has already been made.

🎯 Effect:

• existential fear
• sense of urgency
• “now or never” psychological state

---

4️⃣ False Dilemma

“Only Viktor Orbán can say no.”

📌 Technique:

• binary framing
• exclusive-solution narrative

As if:

• Option A = war
• Option B = peace

Diplomatic complexity, NATO realities, EU mechanisms? → erased.

---

5️⃣ Testimonial-Based Emotional Legitimization

“I have visited Transcarpathia several times… I spoke with a mother…”

📌 Technique:

• personal witness positioning
• empathy-based credibility building

This gives strong emotional legitimacy to the entire narrative.

But:
presenting a tragedy ≠ logically necessitating a specific political conclusion.

---

Important Distinction

War is a real horror.
Real families lose loved ones.
That is not propaganda.

The question is whether:

– tragedy is used as information
or
– tragedy is used as an emotional instrument to influence voters’ decisions.

---

The Strongest Manipulative Pivot

The entire narrative culminates in this:

“We are deciding about this on April 12.”

As if:

• a Hungarian election directly determines the war
• or determines EU war decisions

This is an exaggerated causal simplification.

---

One More Important Point

When you see content like this, it is completely understandable if it:

• unsettles you
• makes you angry
• provokes moral outrage

That is the intention.

Emotional intensity is the political instrument.
