Nothing must remain without consequences: Ukrainians who took part in forced conscription will be expelled from Hungary without delay.

Tragedies led the government to make this decision. Just a few days ago, another Hungarian fell victim to forced conscription by the Ukrainian authorities. Zsolt Reben from Berehove suffered from a severe, lifelong heart condition, which should have exempted him from military service, but the Ukrainian draft officers ignored this. He was violently taken off the street, and a few days later he lost his life at a training center, far from the front line. We will provide every possible form of assistance to his grieving family.

While more and more of our Hungarian compatriots are being lost to the horrors of war, Ukraine continues to put forward new demands, asking for money, and Brussels stands ready to prolong the war.

My heart breaks as a mother when I see and read the news—when I see mothers forced to mourn their sons, sons whom the Ukrainians dragged into this war through forced conscription. And these mothers never get their sons back. This is what happened now to Zsolt and his family as well. And when I visited Transcarpathia in December, I sadly encountered several similar stories. I met the mother of Mihály Gyurik as well—he, too, was seized off the street from one moment to the next and dragged into the war, and his mother will never get her son back. I also met Istvánka, an eighth-grade boy whose father was just as brutally taken into this war, leaving Istvánka to grow up without a father.

It is absolutely right that at today’s meeting the government decided to expel from the country those who took part in Ukrainian forced conscription. Let the bloodshed finally end.

We do not want any more tragedies. We have had enough of this war madness. It is no coincidence that from the very beginning we wanted to stay out of this war, and this will remain the case in the future as well if Fidesz stays in government. Let there finally be peace—hands off the Hungarians.

🔴 1️⃣ Individual tragedies → collective political responsibility

It brings up specific names and fates:

• a sick man
• grieving mothers
• a child left without a father

👉 These are presented as real human dramas, but the goal of the text is not to clarify the cases. Instead, it morally condemns an entire state and a political side.

This is the technique of emotional generalization:
individual suffering → international political accusation.

---

🔴 2️⃣ “As a mother, I say this” – emotional credentialing

“My heart breaks as a mother…”

This is not information.
It is a moral shield:

👉 anyone who questions the text is framed as “heartless”
👉 emotion substitutes for credibility instead of evidence

---

🔴 3️⃣ Repetition of “forced conscription” = mental imprinting

The term returns many times, almost rhythmically.

This is repetition framing:

it does not prove anything,
it burns the concept into the reader’s mind.

---

🔴 4️⃣ Peace rhetoric + punitive action = double message

Two things are said at once:

“let the bloodshed end”
“we will expel those who took part…”

This is the technique of moral self-justification:

“we take tough measures — but for peace”

---

🔴 5️⃣ Brussels + Ukraine = merged enemy image

The text does not separate:

• Ukrainian authorities
• the war situation
• EU institutions

👉 It pushes them into one block:

“they” → demand money → prolong the war

This is enemy-image simplification.

---

🔴 6️⃣ “If Fidesz remains” – tragedy → electoral choice

The most important shift happens at the end:

wartime deaths
→ Hungarian domestic political choice

This is fear-to-vote transformation:

fear → promise of security → vote.

---

🔴 7️⃣ Use of children = moral multiplier

A boy left without a father
crying mothers

This is vulnerable-person framing:

the reader reacts not politically, but from parental/child-protection instincts.

---

🔴 In summary: what is actually happening here?

This text:

❌ does not explain a legal decision
❌ does not analyze international law
❌ does not describe military regulations

✔️ builds emotional mobilization
✔️ constructs an enemy image
✔️ turns tragedies into political loyalty

---

🎯 The central message is not:

“what happened”

but:

“war is dangerous → we are the protection → stay with us”

This is classic wartime security campaign communication.

❗ Ukrainians have now brought hostility even into sports. ❗

Tennis matches traditionally end with a handshake, acknowledging the performance delivered in a contest that can last for hours.

This tradition was broken by a Ukrainian player who stated at the Cluj tournament that she was unwilling to shake hands with the Hungarian tennis player Anna Bondár.

Oleksandra Oliynykova decided that she would not congratulate the highest-ranked Hungarian tennis player until Bondár publicly apologized for having participated in a tournament in Saint Petersburg back in 2022.

Moreover, she essentially called the Hungarian tennis player a Nazi, saying:

“Traveling to Russia in December 2022 to play tennis and accepting money from Gazprom is, from a moral standpoint, equivalent to competing in Nazi Germany in 1941.”

Such a statement is unacceptable.

Anna Bondár responded as follows:

“Obviously it doesn’t feel good, but it is her decision, which I have to accept. (…) I cannot change what happened, and I have never supported the war. I would like there to be peace in the world.”

Let us think about this: if a representative of a nation behaves this way in sports, while Ukraine is knocking on the doors of the EU and NATO asking for serious amounts of money, what would it be like if they were already members of the Union?

Let us stand by Anna Bondár!

---

Ukrainians have now brought politics into sports as well—into an area where, at least until now, it had not been present to such an extent. So what happened?

There was a tennis tournament in Cluj, where Anna Bondár, our Hungarian tennis player, was competing, and her opponent was a Ukrainian woman. This Ukrainian player stated that she was not willing to shake hands with Anna at the end of the match. And why not? Because Anna had participated in a tournament in Saint Petersburg in 2022.

I believe this is extremely unsportsmanlike and outrageous. After the match, Anna stated that she does not support the war and wants peace, and that she does not know how to deal with this situation.

I fully stand by Anna Bondár, and I believe that if a country, a nation’s representative behaves like this in sports, then when they ask something from us—when they knock on the doors of the European Union and NATO, when they expect support and hold out their hands for money—we should imagine how they would behave if they were already members of these alliances.

1️⃣ Individual conflict → collective guilt (nation-shaming)

The story takes place between two athletes:

• Bondár Anna
• Olekszandra Olijnyikova

👉 The propaganda, however, systematically shifts to this framing:

“if this is how a representative of a nation behaves…”

❗ The trick:

• from an individual political stance
• it becomes “the behavior of Ukrainians”

This is collective guilt construction — not description, but emotional generalization.

---

2️⃣ Sport as “moral evidence” (false inference)

“Sport has so far been free of politics.”

❌ This is historically false:

• boycotts
• international protests
• refusals to shake hands
• political gestures

👉 Sport has always been a symbolic arena.

Yet the text presents this as if it were:

• unprecedented,
• an exclusively Ukrainian trait.

This is distorted context.

---

3️⃣ Overstretched moral analogy (moral shock framing)

The quoted statement:

“appearing in Nazi Germany in 1941…”

This is indeed a strong and debatable analogy.

👉 But what does the propaganda do with it?

• it does not refute it with arguments,
• it does not unpack it,
• it uses it as a trigger for emotional outrage.

This is moral shock framing:

“if we accept this → anything becomes acceptable”

---

4️⃣ Victim–aggressor role reversal (reverse victimhood)

The narrative constructed by the text:

• Hungarian athlete = calm, passive, fair
• Ukrainian athlete = aggressive, exclusionary, “calling others Nazis”

👉 From this, it jumps to:

“How would Ukraine behave inside the EU?”

This is a logically flawed leap, but it works emotionally:

personal grievance → geopolitical rejection

---

5️⃣ EU/NATO linkage (fear stacking)

The final conclusion:

“if they behave like this → imagine if they joined”

This is a slippery slope:

• a refused handshake →
• national mentality →
• EU functioning →
• money → threat

❌ Nothing is proven — only stacked fears.

---

🟠 What is deliberately left out

• that Bondár Anna’s response was calm and measured
• that the other party exercised political protest, not physical aggression
• that athletes are not state decision-makers
• that the EU/NATO do not operate based on ‘behavior’ narratives

---

🎯 Conclusion – what is the real function?

This text is not:

• sports analysis ❌
• a moral debate ❌

It is:

✅ emotional identification (“our girl”)
✅ external enemy construction (“the Ukrainians”)
✅ preparation of a political conclusion (EU/NATO rejection)

This is classic emotional transference:

tennis → nation → geopolitics → money → fear

👉 An order has arrived for Péter Magyar… from the banks of the Sava!

Last week, the European People’s Party held its annual summit in Zagreb, attended among others by Manfred Weber and Ursula von der Leyen. At the meeting, important decisions were made, including plans to abolish the member states’ veto rights and to reshape the European Union into a military alliance.

❗ They also made it clear that the current Hungarian government stands in the way of these plans. That is why they need a puppet government. If they place a controlled figure at the helm, that person would never be able to say no to Brussels’ demands.

To achieve their goal, they will use every possible tool. They will stop at nothing: hired thugs, criminals, and online intimidation are all active instruments of the TISZA party’s so-called “country of love.”

❌ We must not allow them to turn us against one another, and we must not fall for any left-wing provocation. In April, we must say no to these as well. Only this way can we preserve peace and security, and only this way can we protect the achievements we have already made.

That is why Fidesz is the safe choice.

These European People’s Party jamborees always seem to be quite “successful.” This time, the entire EPP crowd gathered in Zagreb—Weber was there, Merz was there, and Mrs. von der Leyen as well. And what did they manage to agree on? Well, that the veto right isn’t such a good thing, apparently. That it’s not so good if member states have a say in decisions made over their heads—and might even be able to block them.

The European People’s Party is now working on pushing through various changes across the European Union. And the other thing they openly stated at this meeting was that the European Union should function more like a military alliance. The EU is being transformed toward new alliance structures. In this framework, even NATO’s Article 5 and the Lisbon arrangements start to look weaker by comparison.

So let’s put this together: veto rights—gone. A military alliance—instead, perfectly fine. What would follow from this? That the European Union could be steered in a direction where troops could be sent, for example to Ukraine, without any meaningful input from the member states.

This is precisely the kind of situation where it takes serious strength for a sovereign country to say no. And this is exactly what Viktor Orbán has been able to do over the past years: say no to every Brussels and EPP madness. This is something Péter Magyar would never, ever be capable of. We can see that whenever an instruction arrives from Brussels, Péter Magyar obediently nods his head like a good little boy.

That is why we cannot entrust the country to Péter Magyar: because he cannot say no to Brussels—unlike Viktor Orbán, who has said no many times before, and rightly so. Just think of migration, the war, and I could go on.

1️⃣ External Command Narrative (“The order came from the banks of the Sava”)

👉 Technique: subordination + traitor framing

• “orders were received”
• “a controlled man”
• “a puppet government”

❌ What is missing:

• a concrete document
• an official decision
• a direct quote
• a vote
• a draft piece of legislation

👉 Function:
It does not debate Péter Magyar’s policies. Instead, it strips him of political agency, making debate unnecessary.

If someone acts on orders → they are not a legitimate political actor.

---

2️⃣ Abolishing the veto = war (false causality)

👉 Technique: fear stacking + distortion

Claim chain:

veto rights may weaken
→ EU becomes a military alliance
→ troops are sent
→ Ukraine
→ war

❌ Logical flaws:

• the veto debate is an institutional governance issue, not a military decision
• the EU is not NATO; there is no automatic military engagement
• there is no mechanism that allows troops to be deployed “without member-state consent”

👉 This is panic logic, not legal reality.

---

3️⃣ Blurring NATO Article 5 with the EU

👉 Technique: concept conflation

• NATO = military defense alliance
• EU = political and economic community

❌ The text deliberately merges the two to imply:

“If it’s the EU → then it’s war.”

This is a classic fear-based oversimplification.

---

4️⃣ “We are peace, they are violence” (reverse victimhood)

👉 Technique: victim–perpetrator role reversal

Claims:

• “thugs”
• “criminals”
• “online threats”

❌ Absent:

• police cases
• indictments
• verdicts
• concrete incidents

👉 Function:
First, it criminalizes the opponent; then it presents itself as the sole guarantor of peace.

This is psychological self-absolution:

“We are not inciting — we are merely defending ourselves.”

---

5️⃣ Orbán as the sole protector, everyone else unfit

👉 Technique: savior narrative

• “only he can say no”
• “everyone else is a good little boy”

This creates a black-and-white worldview:

• either Orbán
• or chaos / war / Brussels

❌ What is excluded:

• institutions
• diplomacy
• coalition politics
• multiple interpretations of national interest

---

6️⃣ Timed mobilization (“In April, we must say no”)

👉 Technique: emotional closure

At the end of the text:

• no new information
• no evidence
• only a command: “vote”

This is the classic propaganda ending:

fear → enemy → savior → voting

---

🧠 Overall picture – why does this work on many people?

Because it is:

• simple
• emotional
• cognitively effortless
• built on familiar enemy images

It does not inform — it directs emotions.

Even left-wing mayors are now sharply criticizing Karácsony’s work.
I think the solution is simple!
If your street is snowy and slushy, just paint the snow rainbow-colored and the mayor of Budapest will immediately start dealing with it!

Even Karácsony’s own mayor friends have voiced criticism over the snow removal situation: the convicted DK mayor, the Buda mayor, and Örsi from the 2nd district. For once, I have to agree with the actual mayors on this issue. If I saw correctly, Örsi Gergely, the district’s mayor, is planning to purchase his own machinery. That’s how dissatisfied they are with what Karácsony Gergely is not doing under the label of snow removal.

Priorities, right? So the mayor had time to accept a Pride award, but didn’t have time to properly do his job. Again—because we’ve already been through this once during the previous heavy snowfall. I honestly don’t know what the right solution would be. Maybe we should place little Pride awards all over the city on top of the snow, because that seems to be what really gets Karácsony Gergely’s attention.

1️⃣ Mockery = substitute for evidence

“Paint the snow rainbow-colored”
“tiny little Pride awards”

👉 This is not an argument, but an emotional short-circuit.
Here, humor doesn’t open thinking — it shuts it down:
if you laugh → you stop asking questions.

This is ridicule framing: make the opponent look ridiculous so there’s no need for data, responsibility, or organizational context.

---

2️⃣ Identity conflation (snow removal = Pride)

The text deliberately mixes two completely different issues:

• city operations (snow removal),
• cultural/symbolic events (Pride awards).

👉 The message:
“If there’s Pride → there’s no work.”
This is false cause-and-effect, classic moral panic framing.

---

3️⃣ “Even the left criticizes” – false consensus

“even left-wing mayors criticize him”
“I have to agree with them for once”

👉 This is a form of authority laundering:
internal criticism is inflated into full legitimacy, as if:

• there were a unified left-wing judgment,
• a professional consensus existed,
• this were an objective, politically neutral fact.

In reality, there is no data, no comparison, no weather or capacity analysis.

---

4️⃣ Personal attacks and labeling

“convict DK member”
“doesn’t do snow removal”

👉 This is character assassination:
the problem is no longer the system, but the individual’s supposed “incompetence.”

That way, there’s no need to talk about:

• FŐKERT / FKF capacity,
• legal responsibility frameworks,
• district vs. city-level competencies,
• extreme weather protocols.

---

5️⃣ Symbolic scapegoating

Throughout the text, the target is Karácsony Gergely,
while the actual operational questions remain invisible.

This is a centralized scapegoat narrative:
one face → every failure.

---

6️⃣ “Őrsi is buying a machine” – cherry-picked example

The mention of Őrsi Gergely is a token reference:

• no data on what kind of machine,
• why now,
• under what authority,
• at what cost,
• what it solves at a system level.

👉 This example is not analysis, but political stage décor.

---

7️⃣ The priority narrative: moral judgment

“He had time for this… but not for that.”

This is a false dilemma:
as if a city leader could only do one thing at a time.

👉 Function:
handing out moral superiority, not searching for solutions.

---

🧠 Summary – what is the real function?

This text is not about snow removal, but about:

• identity reinforcement (“we are the normal ones”),
• manufacturing a cultural enemy (Pride),
• personal smearing,
• emotional mobilization.

📌 What it does not contain:

• data,
• a responsibility map,
• costs,
• comparisons,
• proposed solutions.

Only mockery + labels + a scapegoat.

👉 It’s astonishing to see the double standard represented by Magyar Péter: he accuses others of exactly what is being committed by people in his own circle.
Paid thugs, daily intimidation, and ongoing violent actions are not part of our political side. This harmful and dangerous public atmosphere was introduced in Hungary by the Tisza movement, no matter how hard they try to conceal it.
🟠 Let’s not fall for the incitement—we are the guarantee of peace. Only Fidesz is the safe choice.

I honestly can’t keep up with how someone posts 28 times a day and writes 4,600 comments in between—obviously. Come on, Szandra! Have you seen what Magyar Péter is doing? They have nothing left but to turn Hungarians against Hungarians.

So let me get this straight: is it really Magyar Péter who is accusing us of creating some kind of civil-war situation—when his own associate, Romulus, previously said (in a threatening manner) that everyone should be very careful so that such a situation “doesn’t arise”?

And is it really the same Magyar Péter who sent his hired enforcers after a man named Richard because he dared to tell the truth—namely, that Magyar Péter paid 20,000 forints plus fuel money to people to go and cause trouble at a Lázár János forum, and that afterward these same people beat up Richard for speaking out about what happened?

What did he see? That was the whole point. There was a case in Gyöngyös—I went there with them on purpose. So they were paid to go to Gyöngyös? Yes. What’s more, they even tried to force him into a car.

There are limits even to shamelessness—and although Magyar Péter crosses them regularly, this is, even by his standards, a particularly disgusting maneuver, in my view.

1️⃣ Criminalization without evidence (character assassination)

“paid criminals”
“thugs / enforcers”
“daily threats”
“continuous violent actions”

❌ There is no:

• case number
• police report
• indictment
• court ruling
• credible source

👉 This is not a factual claim, but labeling.
If repeated often enough, the brain starts to treat it as fact.
This is smear-through-repetition.

---

2️⃣ Victim–perpetrator role reversal (reverse victimhood)

“they are not part of our political side”
“we are the guarantee of peace”

👉 The trick:

• first, others are branded as violent,
• then the speaker presents themselves as the enforcer of order.

This is psychological self-absolution:

“If we are peace, then anyone opposing us is a danger.”

---

3️⃣ Hearsay presented as evidence (anecdotal manipulation)

“a man named Richard”
“he said”
“they saw it”
“he told them”

❗ Notice:

• no last name
• no date
• no clearly identified location
• no recording, no official report

👉 This is anecdotal ‘proof’, used to manufacture mass accusations.

---

4️⃣ Fear-mongering + civil war insinuation

“civil war situation”
“we must be very careful”
“Hungarians being turned against Hungarians”

👉 Classic fear stacking:

• violence
• threats
• chaos
• internal enemy

Then comes the “solution”:

“Only Fidesz is the safe choice.”

This is not an argument — it is a trigger for defensive reflexes.

---

5️⃣ Collective guilt and associative smearing

Individual figures (“Romulus”, “Richard”)
➡️ projected onto an entire political community.

👉 Technique: guilt by association
If one person is labeled “bad”, everyone becomes guilty.

---

6️⃣ Information overload (confusion flooding)

• too many names
• too many stories
• jumping timelines
• emotional saturation

👉 The goal is not understanding,
but to make you lose the thread and simply feel that “something is wrong”.

---

🧠 Overall picture

This text does not inform. It:

• manufactures enemies
• projects imminent violence
• frames itself as “peace”
• criminalizes without evidence
• generates emotional panic

And it closes with a campaign slogan.

---

❗ The key takeaway

If there is no evidence,
but many strong accusations,
and it always ends with the same line:

“Only Fidesz is the safe choice.”

👉 then you are not seeing reality —
you are seeing engineered fear.
