balazsk full idiot

Péter Magyar and Zelensky worked to make petrol cost 1,000 forints here and to cause chaos. It didn’t work! The protected price helps.

In Romania petrol is 6.23, diesel 6.54; in Austria 95 petrol is already above 6.65 and diesel 7.50. I’ll post the full table in the comments later. In the Netherlands petrol is approaching 1,000 forints per liter — diesel is already 969 there. In Italy it’s approaching 900 forints, in Sweden around 800, 650 as I already said in Romania, and 666 in Serbia.

So we are doing well here at home with 5.95 and 6.15 thanks to the protected price.

Let’s not forget that the price increase is also contributed to by the Iranian crisis, as well as the fact that Europe has cut itself off from cheap Russian oil. Meanwhile Zelensky — together with Péter Magyar — wants to forcibly cut Hungary and Slovakia off as well. But we will defend ourselves against this attack too.

1️⃣ Enemy construction

Excerpt

“Péter Magyar and Zelensky were working to push petrol prices to 1000 HUF at home and cause chaos.”

Technique

Two political actors are portrayed as deliberately causing harm.

The communication suggests that:

they are consciously trying to harm Hungary
their goal is to create chaos

There is no evidence or concrete mechanism explaining how they could actually do this.

Goal

demonize the political opponent
turn the political conflict into a good vs. evil narrative

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ “Someone is intentionally trying to harm the country.”

2️⃣ False causality

Excerpt

“Péter Magyar and Zelensky were working to make petrol cost 1000 HUF.”

Technique

The text suggests that a politician can directly influence the fuel price in Hungary.

In reality, petrol prices mainly depend on:

global oil prices
refining costs
taxes
transportation costs
exchange rates

Goal

Provide a simple scapegoat explanation for a complex economic phenomenon.

Effect

The reader sees political intent instead of economic processes.

3️⃣ Selective use of data (cherry-picking)

Excerpt

“Romania 6.23 … Austria 6.65 … Netherlands 969 HUF … Sweden 800 HUF.”

Technique

The data is selectively presented.

The communication:

lists higher prices
creates a contrast effect

But it does not show for example:

tax structures
average wages
real purchasing-power comparisons

Goal

Create the impression that:

➡️ “Hungary is doing much better.”

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ the government protected the population.

4️⃣ Success framing

Excerpt

“It didn’t work! The protected price helps.”

Technique

The text builds a victory narrative:

there was an attack
the government defended the country

Goal

Emphasize the competence and strength of the government.

Effect

➡️ “Without them things would be much worse.”

5️⃣ External threat framing

Excerpt

“Zelensky wants to cut off Hungary and Slovakia by force.”

Technique

The communication frames the energy dispute as a geopolitical attack.

In reality, the issue mainly revolves around:

sanctions
energy policy
transit disputes

Goal

Elevate the political conflict to a national security issue.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ Hungary is under attack from outside.

6️⃣ Context omission (information distortion)

Excerpt

“The price increase is also caused by the Iranian crisis.”

Technique

A partially true factor is mentioned without full context.

Missing elements include for example:

global oil market dynamics
tanker routes
speculation
exchange-rate effects

Goal

Provide a simple explanation.

Effect

An economic process becomes a political narrative.

7️⃣ “We will protect the country” narrative (protector narrative)

Excerpt

“But we will defend against this attack as well.”

Technique

At the end of the message the government appears in the role of protector.

Goal

Strengthen political loyalty.

Effect

➡️ Politics is framed not as debate, but as defense against enemies.

Summary

The post follows a classic propaganda structure:

1️⃣ Identify an enemy
Péter Magyar + Zelensky

2️⃣ Create a crisis narrative
fuel price explosion

3️⃣ Frame it as an external attack
energy blockade

4️⃣ Present a hero
the government protects the country

This structure is one of the most common patterns in political communication.

Only violence, only aggression, only threats. That is their world! We will defeat Balázs Barkóczi and bring momentum to North Pest!

“Disgusting, filthy worm, there will be no development, everyone will vote for Balázs Barkóczi, he knows what matters, and you should get out of here with your posters.”

This was the wonderful message I received from one of North Pest’s opposition, left-wing, Brussels-voting supporters.

What happened was that a few days ago I confronted Balázs Barkóczi, the current Member of Parliament and Brussels’ number one candidate, with the fact that absolutely no development has taken place in North Pest over the past four years.

Meanwhile, we have plenty of ideas about how this part of the city could finally gain momentum.

And this is the reaction from the left-wing supporters. Loud, violent, aggressive, representing a disgusting style — but fortunately there is only a little more than a month left, and after April 12, when we free North Pest from the captivity of the Brussels parties and the left wing, people like this will finally fall silent.

1️⃣ Enemy Construction

Excerpt

“left-wing Brussels voter”
“the captivity of Brussels parties”

Technique

The communication creates a homogeneous hostile group:

“the left”
“Brussels parties”
“opposition voters”

These different actors are merged into one political bloc that appears as an enemy.

Goal

create a clear “us vs. them” division
delegitimize the opponent

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ there is both an internal and an external enemy
➡️ which is “holding the district captive”.

2️⃣ Generalization from a Single Example (Anecdotal Propaganda)

Excerpt

“Disgusting, filthy worm… get out of here…”

Technique

The text presents an alleged comment or message, then projects it onto an entire political camp.

Logical leap:

one person writes an insulting comment
therefore → “this is what the left is like”

Goal

build a collective negative image of the opponent

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ supporters of the opponent are all aggressive.

3️⃣ Moral Superiority Narrative

Excerpt

“They are loud, violent, aggressive.”

Technique

The communication creates a moral contrast:

Them	Us
aggressive	civilized
ugly style	development ideas

Goal

strengthen the moral legitimacy of one’s own side

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ one side is “bad”, while the other side “builds and develops”.

4️⃣ False Cause Narrative

Excerpt

“no development has taken place in North Pest in the past four years”

Technique

A very strong claim that has:

no supporting data
no concrete examples

This is a typical political rhetorical device:
absolute claim → without evidence.

Goal

completely erase the opponent’s performance

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ “nothing happened in four years”.

5️⃣ Liberation Framing

Excerpt

“we will liberate North Pest”

Technique

The campaign is framed as a liberation struggle.

This is a classic political metaphor:

city = captivity
election = liberation

Goal

present the election as a historically significant decision

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ voting is a “liberation act.”

6️⃣ Inevitability Framing (Future Victory Narrative)

Excerpt

“just a little more than a month and they will fall silent”

Technique

The text declares victory in advance.

This is a common campaign tool:

➡️ the success appears inevitable.

Goal

mobilize supporters
influence undecided voters

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ “they are going to win anyway”.

7️⃣ Emotional Framing

Keywords

“violence”
“aggression”
“threat”
“disgusting”

Technique

The communication uses strong emotional language.

This shifts attention away from:

concrete policy programs
real data

Goal

provoke an emotional reaction

Effect

The reader reacts based on feelings rather than information.

Summary

The text is a typical campaign communication built on the following propaganda techniques:

enemy construction
generalization from a single example
moral superiority narrative
unsupported claims
liberation rhetoric
declared inevitable victory
strong emotional language

👉 The main purpose of the communication is not to convey information, but to:

mobilize supporters
demonize the opponent
trigger emotional reactions.

☝️ Tisza supporters, Tisza supporters! I trust that you do not want to shoot, hang, or lynch the judge who announced the final ruling. ❗️

☝️ Everyone should believe and accept this: if TISZA comes to power, it will introduce brutal austerity measures, because under orders from Brussels and Kyiv, Hungary’s money would have to be sent to Ukraine. ❗️

🇭🇺 Among other reasons, this is why there will not be a Tisza government.

balazska

Who is bringing politics into schools?? The Tisza-aligned teachers! Young people tell me every day what happens at school when they openly show their commitment to the right 👍

There really seems to be no limit to the arrogance of the Tisza, liberal, left-wing camp. HVG writes that I am the one bringing politics into schools. Why? Because in recent weeks they have seen that more and more young people come up to me at our public events to talk about politics. Some ask for selfies, some ask for autographs. A few days ago there was even a group that said they would take the signed leaflet into their school because several people had asked them to. I thought they were joking, and they swore they weren’t serious. And based on this, HVG writes that I am bringing politics into schools.

Dear EduLine, dear HVG, and all the other Tisza-supporting scribblers—do you know who actually brings politics into schools? The teachers who try to make life miserable for any child and their family whom they know, or even just suspect, to lean toward the right, toward Fidesz, toward the national forces and conservative values.

There are countless stories that young people tell me about how these liberal, Tisza-aligned teachers try to silence them in schools. They are the ones bringing politics into schools.

Right now they are loud, Tisza-aligned, self-styled freedom-fighter teachers. But after April 12, they too will fall silent.

1️⃣ Enemy Construction

Excerpt

“pro-Tisza teachers”
“pro-Tisza, liberal, left-wing arrogance”
“pro-Tisza scribblers”

Technique

The political opponent is not presented as individual actors but as a single hostile group:

“Tisza supporters”
“liberals”
“the left”
“teachers”

Different groups are merged into one negative category.

Goal

➡️ to create a clear “us vs. them” division
➡️ to delegitimize the opponent

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ there is an organized hostile camp
➡️ working against the “national side”.

2️⃣ Victimhood Framing

Excerpt

“to ruin the lives of those children and their families”

“they want to silence them”

Technique

The text suggests that:

➡️ right-wing children are being persecuted or oppressed in schools.

This is victimhood framing.

Goal

➡️ to trigger emotional identification
➡️ to generate moral outrage

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ that an unjust system exists
➡️ that is attacking “our side”.

3️⃣ Generalization and Anecdotal Evidence

Excerpt

“there are many cases the children tell me about”

Technique

The text claims a systemic problem without presenting concrete evidence or data.

The source is:

➡️ “children tell me”.

Goal

➡️ to create the appearance of credibility
➡️ to persuade through stories and anecdotes

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ that “many such cases exist”,
even if no actual data is presented.

4️⃣ Media Discrediting

Excerpt

“HVG”
“EduLine”
“pro-Tisza scribblers”

Technique

Critical media outlets are presented as political enemies.

Instead of refuting the claim, the text attacks the source itself.

This is a classic ad hominem media framing.

Goal

➡️ to undermine the credibility of critical journalism

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ that the media is biased
➡️ therefore it should not be trusted.

5️⃣ Political Mobilization

Excerpt

“after April 12 they will also fall silent”

Technique

The text promises a coming political turning point.

This functions as an electoral mobilization message.

Goal

➡️ to motivate the supporter base
➡️ to increase voter participation

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ the election will be a form of “justice being restored.”

6️⃣ Moral Framing

Excerpt

“national forces”
“conservative values”

Technique

The speaker’s own political side is presented using morally positive categories.

This implicitly suggests that:

➡️ the other side is not national.

Goal

➡️ to establish a sense of moral superiority

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ one side represents the “good”
➡️ while the other is destructive.

7️⃣ Conflict Amplification

Excerpt

“to ruin their lives”
“to silence them”

Technique

Political disagreement is framed as a serious and dramatic conflict.

The expressions carry strong emotional weight.

Goal

➡️ to increase tension and outrage

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ a serious injustice is taking place.

Summary

conflict amplification

Communication objective

➡️ to strengthen the speaker’s political camp
➡️ to delegitimize the opponent
➡️ to trigger emotional identification among supporters.

Of course, the Tisza Party will “officially” not protest the protected fuel price. But since Zoltán Tart, we know that they are lying and putting on an act about this as well.
Together with Zelensky, they are working to ensure that cheap Russian oil does not reach Hungary.

🤡 Tisza supporters are already attacking the government’s plan to introduce a protected fuel price at petrol stations. No surprise! They always side with the multinationals!

Barely more than half an hour has passed since the announcement that the government will introduce a protected price at petrol stations, and the Tisza camp has already launched a full-scale attack on the measure.

Take, for example, this leading Tisza-aligned influencer, Tibi Atya, who has already posted several messages mocking and laughing at the protected price.

It was predictable. They have to make it clear that if there were a Tisza government, it would never protect consumers, buyers, or motorists in a situation like this. Instead, it would always side with multinationals, energy companies, and oil industry corporations.

That would be a Tisza government.

But that is precisely one of the reasons there will not be a Tisza government.

1️⃣ Enemy Construction

Excerpt

“Supporters of Tisza are already attacking…”
“They always stand on the side of multinational corporations.”

Technique

The political opponent is presented as a single, uniform group:

➡️ “the Tisza supporters”

The communication does not refer to individual opinions or specific politicians but instead frames the opponent as a collective identity.

Goal

to create a clear “us vs. them” division
to portray the opponent as a unified negative group

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ there is a hostile political camp
➡️ that acts against the interests of Hungarian people.

2️⃣ Attribution of Intent (Mind-Reading Framing)

Excerpt

“They have to show that if there were a Tisza government… they would never protect consumers.”

Technique

The text attributes assumed motivations and intentions to the opponent.

It does not quote a specific statement but instead asserts:

➡️ what they “want”
➡️ what they “would do”

Goal

To interpret the opponent’s political intentions in a negative way.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ the opposition would deliberately act against the interests of the public.

3️⃣ Moral Framing

Excerpt

“they would protect consumers, buyers, motorists”
vs.
“multinationals and energy companies”

Technique

The communication creates a moral contrast:

Positive side	Negative side
consumers	multinationals
motorists	oil companies

Goal

To transform a political debate into a moral choice.

Effect

For the reader, the issue becomes simplified to:

➡️ who stands with ordinary people
➡️ who stands with “multinationals”.

4️⃣ Ridicule Framing

Excerpt

“🤡”
“mocking and laughing”

Technique

Instead of countering the opponent with policy arguments, the message uses ridicule and mockery.

Goal

To undermine the credibility of the opponent.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ the opponent is not serious
➡️ their arguments do not deserve careful consideration.

5️⃣ Anecdotal Generalization

Excerpt

“For example, here is this main Tisza influencer, Tibi Atya…”

Technique

A single individual’s reaction is used to draw conclusions about:

➡️ the entire political camp.

Goal

To present a simple and easily understandable “example”.

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ “this shows what Tisza supporters are like.”

6️⃣ Pre-Emptive Political Conclusion

Excerpt

“This is one of the reasons why there will not be a Tisza government.”

Technique

At the end of the text, a political prediction appears.

It is presented not as analysis, but as a definitive statement.

Goal

to project political confidence
to mobilize the author’s own supporters

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ the opponent is already destined to fail.

Brief Summary

The main communication tools in the text are:

1️⃣ enemy construction
2️⃣ attribution of intentions to the opponent
3️⃣ moral contrast (“people vs. multinationals”)
4️⃣ ridicule and mockery
5️⃣ generalizing from a single example
6️⃣ political mobilization at the end

➡️ This follows a classic campaign communication structure, which builds a simple emotional narrative:

“We defend the people — they defend the multinationals.”

Because of the Zelensky–Magyar Péter oil blockade and the Iranian crisis, global oil prices have surged. The government is holding an extraordinary meeting ❗️

Important news: the government will hold an extraordinary meeting on Monday afternoon because global oil prices have surged due to the Ukrainian oil blockade — the Zelensky–Magyar Péter oil blockade — and the Iranian crisis. This will certainly have, or may have, an impact on domestic fuel prices as well. The government needs to make an important decision on this matter. It is worth following.

1️⃣ Causal simplification

Excerpt

“Because of the Zelensky–Péter Magyar oil blockade and the Iranian crisis, the price of crude oil has skyrocketed.”

Technique

The text links a complex global market process to two specific actors:

Zelensky
Péter Magyar

In reality, oil prices are influenced by many factors:

global supply and demand
OPEC decisions
tensions in the Middle East
shipping and transport routes
market speculation

Goal

➡️ To turn a complex economic process into a matter of political responsibility.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ “someone specific is responsible for fuel becoming more expensive.”

2️⃣ Political association (association framing)

Excerpt

“the Zelensky–Péter Magyar oil blockade”

Technique

Two actors are linked together in a joint action, even if:

there is no proven joint decision
there is no proven coordination

This is a classic campaign communication tool.

Goal

➡️ To connect a domestic political actor to an external conflict.

Effect

In the reader’s mind it may create the impression that:

➡️ “Péter Magyar serves foreign interests.”

3️⃣ Crisis framing

Key phrases

“the price of crude oil has skyrocketed”
“extraordinary government meeting”
“important decision”

Technique

The text creates a sense of urgency and crisis.

Goal

➡️ To present the government’s reaction as crisis management.

Effect

The reader may perceive that:

➡️ “there is a serious danger and immediate decisions are needed.”

4️⃣ External threat framing

The communication constructs a picture of external pressure:

Ukraine (oil blockade)
Iran (crisis)

Goal

➡️ To present the economic problem as the result of external forces.

5️⃣ Message repetition (reinforcement)

The text repeats twice:

“the government is holding an extraordinary meeting”

This is a deliberate communication technique.

Goal

➡️ To reinforce the key message.

About the Iranian part

In the text, the “Iranian crisis” does not appear as a specific event but rather as a general geopolitical tension.

This is a common communication pattern:

➡️ referring to global conflicts to explain market price movements.

✅ Summary

The communication builds three main narratives:

Fuel price increases have identifiable political culprits.
External forces are putting pressure on Hungary.
The government appears as a crisis manager responding to the situation.

Let’s stand together against unprecedented hatred!!
#northpest #pestujhely #kaposztasmegyer #rakospalota #ujpalota

What Tisza supporters are doing is brutal. Several people who attended the poster event here, or who help our work as activists, have reported it. Those who appeared in videos and photos say that an unprecedented wave of hatred has been directed at them. They are being humiliated, harassed, intimidated, and mocked.

Fortunately, many have also said that despite all of this, they do not regret standing with us. I sincerely thank everyone for that.

At the same time, I would like to offer that if there are people who, despite all this—or even because of it—are proud to stand with the national forces and proudly call themselves patriots, then write to me at nemethbalazsvagyok@gmail.com, and let’s make a joint video or photo.

Let’s show that there are many of us, and that those who are being targeted and intimidated are not alone.

1️⃣ Building a victim narrative (victimhood framing)

Excerpt

“an unprecedented wave of hatred has been unleashed on them”
“they are humiliated, harassed, terrorized, and mocked”

Technique

The text portrays one political camp as a collective victim.

Strong emotional words:

wave (tsunami)
terrorized
humiliated
harassed

Goal

➡️ to trigger emotional identification
➡️ to create a sense of moral superiority

Effect

The reader may feel that:

“they are victims”
“they must be defended”

2️⃣ Creating an enemy image (enemy construction)

Excerpt

“what the Tisza supporters are doing”

Technique

The political opponent is presented as a collective group.

Not individual people, but:

➡️ “the Tisza supporters”

Goal

To create a simple conflict:

us
them

Effect

Polarization.

3️⃣ Emotional exaggeration (emotional amplification)

Key words

brutal
unprecedented
tsunami
terror

Technique

The text strongly dramatizes the situation.

It is not framed as:

debate
conflict
criticism

but as:

➡️ “terror”.

Goal

To provoke an immediate emotional reaction.

Effect

Rational evaluation is pushed into the background.

4️⃣ Collective mobilization (mobilization framing)

Excerpt

“Let’s show that there are many of us”

Technique

This is a classic movement-style call to action.

The message shifts:

from complaint
➡️ to mobilization.

Goal

To build group identity.

Effect

The reader may feel:

➡️ “I should join”.

5️⃣ Strengthening group identity (identity framing)

Excerpt

“supporters of the national forces”
“patriots”

Technique

A political stance becomes a moral identity.

It is not simply:

supporting a party

but rather:

➡️ patriotism.

Goal

To turn a political choice into a moral question.

Effect

Anyone outside this group is implicitly framed as:

➡️ “not a patriot”.

6️⃣ Self-justifying narrative (self-justification loop)

The logic of the text:

“They attack us”
“We are victims”
“This proves that we are right”
“Therefore we must unite even more strongly”

This creates a closed communication loop.

🧠 The psychological pattern behind the text

This follows a classic political mobilization formula:

1️⃣ threat
2️⃣ victim narrative
3️⃣ identity
4️⃣ mobilization

Structure:

enemy → victim → community → action

⚠️ Why it may feel like “they accuse others of what they themselves do”

Because it reflects a common phenomenon called:

projective propaganda (projection)

This means:

➡️ accusing the opponent
➡️ of the very techniques used in one’s own communication.

Examples:

Claim	Actual communication pattern
“wave of hatred”	strong emotional polarization
“terror”	political dramatization
“they harass us”	amplification of conflict

📌 In short

The text does not primarily provide information. Instead, it:

generates emotion
builds identity
mobilizes supporters.

That is why it feels like propaganda.

Those who want order, peace, and stability should vote for Fidesz on April 12!

Let me show you something interesting from the 8th district. This is what it looks like when the filthy streets of the 8th district under the local liberal left-wing mayor meet the world of Tisza — trash scattered everywhere, Tisza newspapers all over the place. But honestly, the whole area has looked disgusting ever since there has been a left-wing mayor here in the 8th district.

Anyone who wants order, anyone who wants peace, anyone who wants stability will of course vote for Fidesz on April 12.

There is no other solution. Oops!

1️⃣ Order–Chaos Framing

Excerpt

“Whoever wants order, peace and calm should vote for Fidesz.”

Technique

The political choice is simplified into two extremes:

Fidesz = order, peace, stability
the opponent = chaos

This is a classic binary framing technique.

Goal

To turn the election into a moral choice, rather than a debate about policies.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ anyone who does not vote for Fidesz is voting against order.

2️⃣ Scapegoating

Excerpt

“the dirty streets of the 8th district under the local liberal left-wing mayor”

Technique

A complex urban issue (cleanliness, public space management) is attributed to a single political actor.

Goal

To provide a simple explanation:

➡️ “left-wing leadership = dirt and disorder”.

Effect

The voter may feel that:

➡️ local problems are caused by one political side alone.

3️⃣ Negative Emotional Framing (Disgust Framing)

Keywords

“dirty”
“scattered everywhere”
“disgusting”

Technique

The communication uses physical disgust to strengthen a political message.

Goal

To trigger a strong emotional reaction.

Effect

The reader:

➡️ reacts emotionally rather than rationally.

4️⃣ Guilt by Association

Excerpt

“the dirty street of the left-wing mayor meeting the world of Tisza”

Technique

Two unrelated things are linked together:

a dirty street
the Tisza party

without proving a direct connection.

Goal

To transfer a negative image from one actor to another.

Effect

In the reader’s mind it may create the impression that:

➡️ “Tisza = disorder.”

5️⃣ Repetition Technique

Excerpt

“whoever wants order, whoever wants peace, whoever wants calm…”

Technique

The same message is repeated in several variations.

This is a classic campaign communication tool.

Goal

To embed the core message in the audience’s mind.

Effect

Because of repetition, the statement may feel:

➡️ more familiar
➡️ therefore more believable.

6️⃣ False Dilemma

Excerpt

“There is no other solution.”

Technique

The political choice is narrowed down to two options:

Fidesz
the wrong decision

Goal

To eliminate the perception of legitimate political alternatives.

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ there is no valid alternative choice.

📊 Summary

The text follows a classic campaign propaganda pattern.

Core narrative

“Order vs. Chaos.”

Tools used

emotional manipulation
scapegoating
guilt by association
repetition
false dilemma

Communication goal

➡️ to make voters decide not based on political programs,
but based on emotional identity and perceived moral alignment.

balazska

This is all Tisza can do! They would tear the country apart, bringing hostility, hatred, and conflict! That’s why the sensible majority will send them packing in April.

Tisza aggressors. While they were putting up their Tisza posters. Is there a problem? Yes, there is a problem, because this Tisza gang is irritating and the country has absolutely no need for people like them. Meanwhile, on International Women’s Day I brought flowers to the Tisza volunteers, and they tore down all the posters.

The lying Péter Magyar said they wouldn’t even put up posters, because it would be environmental pollution, a waste of money, propaganda, and all that nonsense. And now we’ve reached the point in North Pest where only Tisza posters are out, because they put them on the poles in place of the Fidesz posters. They cut down all the “Balázs Németh – The Safe Choice” posters and put up their own. You can check the photos and the videos.

Tisza aggressors. While putting up their Tisza posters, they yanked, damaged, pushed up, and rendered unusable the Balázs Németh poster underneath. And I also received news that they cut down the DK posters as well — the Balázs Barkóczi ones too. Here there’s hardly any Barkóczi posters left either, because from the Balázs Németh ones there’s only a single piece remaining.

These Tisza people are not decent people — they are criminals.

1️⃣ Dehumanization (dehumanization framing)

Excerpt

“They are not people, these Tisza supporters — they are criminals.”

Technique

The political opponent is presented not as a political actor, but as a group placed outside the category of normal human community.

Goal

create moral distance
remove the opponent’s legitimacy
justify hostility or aggression toward them

Effect

The audience may feel that

➡️ the opponent does not simply hold a different opinion
➡️ but belongs to a “bad” or “dangerous” group.

This is one of the strongest polarization tools in political communication.

2️⃣ Moral labeling

Keywords

“criminal gang”
“criminals”
“aggressors”

Technique

The political opponent is placed into a criminal category without concrete evidence or legal context.

Goal

morally delegitimize the opponent
transform political disagreement into a moral conflict

Effect

The reader may perceive that

➡️ this is not a political debate
➡️ but a conflict between “good people vs criminals.”

3️⃣ Emotional escalation

Excerpt

“They are wrecking the country, bringing hostility, hatred, and warmongering.”

Technique

Strongly exaggerated and dramatized language.

Keywords

wrecking the country
hatred
warmongering

Goal

to trigger emotional reactions such as:

anger
fear
outrage

Effect

The audience becomes less likely to evaluate the situation rationally.

4️⃣ Moral self-elevation (moral contrast)

Excerpt

“I brought flowers for the volunteers on Women’s Day…”

Technique

The speaker builds a moral contrast.

own side	opponent
brings flowers	tears down posters
peaceful	aggressive

Goal

to construct a narrative where

➡️ “we are the good ones”
➡️ “they are the bad ones”.

5️⃣ Aggressive labeling (labeling)

Keyword

“Tisza aggressors”

Technique

An entire political group is reduced to one negative label.

Goal

simplify the opponent into a single category
create an easily repeatable political narrative

Effect

The political group appears uniformly dangerous.

6️⃣ “Sensible majority” narrative (majority framing)

Excerpt

“That is why the sensible majority will drive them out in April.”

Technique

The speaker portrays their political side as representing the majority.

Goal

to create the perception that

➡️ anyone who disagrees
➡️ stands outside the “sensible majority.”

7️⃣ Reinforcing the enemy image (enemy construction)

The text repeatedly uses expressions such as:

“Tisza aggressors”
“criminal gang”
“criminals”

Technique

Repetition.

Goal

to fix the enemy image in the audience’s mind.

⚠️ Overall picture

From a communication perspective, the text represents a classic polarizing campaign message.

Main elements

1️⃣ dehumanization

4️⃣ moral contrast (“we are good – they are bad”)
5️⃣ majority legitimacy (“the sensible majority”)

This combination typically serves to

➡️ provoke strong emotional reactions
➡️ strengthen tribal political identity

“I have two children; I don’t want to die for Ukraine!” – A young father on the dangers of war and what is at stake in the April election.

“My little daughter is there, I have a one-and-a-half-year-old son and a seventeen-year-old son, and I don’t want to die in Ukraine. And it’s fine—if you sign this as well. I’m quite proud of this. It’s a photo from the Athletics World Championships. Were you there at the opening? I was there as well.

To be honest, I don’t even remember who I voted for four years ago, because that ‘troublemaker’ seemed sympathetic at the time, and I liked what he was doing. But now there’s no question. Now the stakes are a bit higher, much bigger.

Yes, now there’s no question. I have my little daughter, a one-and-a-half-year-old son, and a seventeen-year-old son, and I don’t want to die in Ukraine.”

“Thank you for coming.”

“Thank you as well.”

1️⃣ “Ordinary citizen” authentication (ordinary citizen testimonial)

Excerpt

“I have two children, I don’t want to die for Ukraine.”

Technique

The political message is not delivered by a politician, but by a “young father.”

From a communication perspective, this is a powerful device because it presents:

an everyday person
a family father
personal fear

Goal

➡️ To present the political position as “common-sense thinking of ordinary people.”

Effect

The reader may feel that:

➡️ “If an average father thinks this way, then he must be right.”

2️⃣ Fear-based framing (fear framing)

Excerpt

“I don’t want to die for Ukraine.”

Technique

The political debate is reframed as an existential danger:

➡️ election = war
➡️ war = personal death

Goal

To trigger a strong emotional reaction.

Effect

Rational debate is pushed into the background, and the decision becomes fear-driven.

3️⃣ False dilemma (false dilemma)

The implicit claim of the narrative:

If you do not vote for this political side
➡️ you might die in Ukraine.

Technique

In reality there are many political options, but the communication reduces the situation to two choices.

Goal

To create a simple decision framework for the audience.

4️⃣ Emotional identification (emotional identification)

Excerpt

“My little daughter… my one-and-a-half-year-old son… my teenage son…”

Technique

Mentioning children:

creates a strong emotional connection
activates protective instincts

Goal

To frame the message as defending one’s family.

5️⃣ “Enlightened voter” narrative

Excerpt

“Four years ago I voted for them… but now there’s no question.”

Technique

A story arc is created:

previously supported another side
then “realized the truth”

Goal

To suggest that:

➡️ many people are switching sides.

6️⃣ Narrative drama (storytelling framing)

The structure of the scene:

an ordinary person
personal confession
family emotion
electoral stakes

This is classic campaign storytelling.

📊 Core logic of the communication

The message is built around a simple narrative chain:

election → war → family → fear

This is one of the most powerful forms of campaign communication because it combines:

a personal story
strong emotional impact
a simple and easily understandable message.
