What is the recording about overall?
A conflict takes place at a Fidesz event in Pécs that is formally described as a “private event” but is held in a public space. A previous physical assault is publicly linked to the Tisza Party, even though it later becomes clear that the perpetrator was a Fidesz deputy mayor. Despite this, the Tisza Party continues to be collectively stigmatized, and the narrative is not corrected.
🔴 KEY LABELS used against the Tisza Party (highlighted)
1️⃣ “CRIMINALS”
“don’t defend the criminals”
“you are on the side of criminals”
📌 What does this do?
- It does not engage in political debate; it criminalizes
- Tisza = a police matter, not a political actor
- No evidence, no procedure, just assertion
👉 Classic character assassination
2️⃣ “MAFIA PARTY”
“the day has come when it became a mafia party”
“anyone who votes for this mafia party…”
📌 What does this do?
- Tisza is framed not as a legitimate political actor, but as a criminal organization
- Voters themselves are portrayed as morally tainted
- It justifies later exclusion and retaliation
👉 This is already the gateway to dehumanization
3️⃣ “VIOLENT / ASSAULTIVE”
“it was Tisza supporters who beat him”
“hired Tisza criminals”
📌 Key trick:
- Violence is projected onto them even after the opposite is proven
- No correction follows
- The accusation survives longer than the refutation
👉 Maintaining a lie through narrative force
4️⃣ “INTERNAL RESERVE”
“they were referred to as an internal reserve”
📌 What does this actually mean?
- Militarized language
- Tisza portrayed as a hidden, dangerous element
- Not citizens, but potential threats
👉 Wartime logic applied in peacetime
5️⃣ COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT
“anyone who votes for this party should not come to me”
“don’t even greet me on the street”
📌 This is a crucial signal
- No individual responsibility
- Exclusion of an entire community
- Open political discrimination
👉 This is an authoritarian reflex, not an opinion
🔴 Even more serious: what happens AFTER THE FACTS?
❗ It becomes clear that:
- the assault was not committed by Tisza supporters
- but by a Fidesz deputy mayor
- who admits this himself
❌ Despite this:
- the “Tisza criminals” narrative does not stop
- there is no apology
- no correction
- the inciting videos remain online
👉 This is deliberate reality overwriting
Overall picture – what are they actually doing?
They are not debating the Tisza Party. They are:
- criminalizing it
- demonizing it
- collectively stigmatizing it
- morally excluding it
- and refusing to correct themselves even when facts disprove them
This is not a campaign.
It is enemy construction.
