At the commemoration marking the anniversary of last year’s Magdeburg terrorist attack — when a car rammed into the Christmas market, killing five people and injuring hundreds — Chancellor Merz was booed, and people shouted at him: “Get out of here! Shame on you!”
Everyone gets what their government has delivered to them…

1️⃣ Style and Tone
The statements are consistently delivered in an indefensible tone: personal attacks, mockery, insults, and obscene phrasing. Argumentation is replaced by emotion-driven tirades. The speakers are visibly comfortable in this environment—the exaggerated language is not a flaw, but an identity.
2️⃣ Content Patterns
Enemy construction: homogenizing “Brussels,” the opposition, journalists, and civil society into a single hostile bloc.
Conspiracy narratives: the normalization of unsubstantiated claims.
False dilemmas: “peace vs. betrayal,” “the nation vs. the enemy.”
Performance over substance:how something is said overrides what is actually being said.
3️⃣ Absence of Self-Reflection
There is no correction, no fact-checking, no accountability. Criticism is deflected as hostile attack, reinforcing a closed echo chamber.
4️⃣ Target Audience and Function
The program does not aim to persuade, but to bind and inflame. For its audience, this tone feels familiar because it provides identity: “this is how we speak.” Loudness functions as a loyalty test.
5️⃣ Consequence
The degradation and brutalization of public discourse: arguments disappear, only emotion remains. The “level” at which the speakers feel comfortable is deliberately kept low, because mobilization works best there.
In short:
This is not debate and not information—it is performed outrage. The style is not incidental; it is the message itself.
Partial successes have been achieved by the Patriots. The situation is that something truly unprecedented has happened. Twenty-four countries have decided to grant war loans to Ukraine.
The problem is that war loans are meant to be repaid, and for that, the war has to be won. So the decision itself means that a large part of Europe’s leadership has decided that Europe must go deeper into the war. Now it’s no longer just about financing it, but about setting victory as an explicit objective—because only that way can the loans be repaid.
Frankly, the European leadership is in a terrible state. Many times I thought this was some kind of joke or part of a political game, but over the last couple of days it became clear that they are dead serious. They genuinely mean what they have been saying: that we must fight a war—and prepare for a war—like the ones our grandfathers and great-grandfathers fought.
But we Hungarians, for example, do not want this—and I believe others don’t either. This whole madness is simply incomprehensible.
1️⃣ Framing inevitability
“For now, it looks like Europe will not stay out of the war.”
This is psychological preconditioning. It is not a statement of fact, but mood-setting: it suggests that 👉 there is no choice 👉 drifting into the war is inevitable
This is the classic “not today, but tomorrow for sure” logic.
2️⃣ Technical decision = entering the war
“24 countries have decided to provide war loans to Ukraine… which means going deeper into the war.”
This is deliberate concept-blurring:
a financial decision ≠ military involvement
a loan ≠ entering a war
political support ≠ “Europe winning the war”
👉 A textbook slippery manipulation, where an administrative act is tied to apocalyptic consequences.
3️⃣ Constructing forced logic
“Loans must be repaid → therefore the war must be won”
This is a false causal chain:
as if Europe were the belligerent
as if Europe had to achieve a military victory
as if no other outcomes existed (negotiations, frozen conflict, partial settlement)
👉 This is not analysis — it is psychological coercion.
4️⃣ The “mad elite” narrative
“European leadership is in a terrible state… they mean this dead seriously.”
This is emotional delegitimization:
“European leadership” is portrayed as collectively insane
irrational
dangerous
👉 It does not argue — it diagnoses mental instability.
5️⃣ Activating historical trauma
“We must fight a war like our grandfathers and great-grandfathers did.”
This is the strongest manipulative element:
world-war imagery
total mobilization
generational fear
👉 This is not a realistic description of the situation, but memory-political shock tactics.
6️⃣ “We Hungarians” – emotional appropriation
“We Hungarians, for example, do not want this.”
This is collective voice abuse:
the speaker elevates their own opinion into a national will
anyone who disagrees is implicitly “not truly Hungarian”
👉 A classic case of identity-based exclusion.
In summary
This text does not inform. It:
instills fear
suggests inevitability
blurs key concepts
triggers emotional reflexes
weaponizes historical trauma
📌 This is not war analysis. This is war psychology.
The Tisza Party’s pages have slipped from their hands and landed on the front pages: 602 pages of austerity and Brussels-style war psychosis pour out of them. 🆚 🇭🇺 By contrast, there is a Hungarian plan: a program that supports families, entrepreneurs, young people, and the elderly alike. A plan whose goal is to make Hungary strong, great, and happy again.
“The package and program of the Tisza Party are exactly what those in Brussels are doing. So anyone who believes that what is being done in Brussels is the right path should definitely vote for the Tisza Party, because the Tisza program is Brussels’ program. We, on the other hand, are doing the opposite. Let me say again: I am not claiming that one could not construct a logical argument behind a very harsh, Tisza-style austerity package. But that would mean switching to a war economy. That would mean no 14th-month pension—indeed, not even a 13th—no family support system, no first-home scheme for young people, no fixed 3% rate for small and medium-sized businesses. None of that would exist; it would be a different world. And in my view Hungary must not step onto this Brussels path; it must remain on its own Hungarian path, and I believe this path is viable.”
Orbán Viktor once again builds on the same single template:
What does the text actually do?
1️⃣ False binary choice
“Brussels path” vs. “Hungarian path” There is no middle ground, no third option, no nuance. This is classic either–or framing.
2️⃣ Demonization of the Tisza Party = personification of Brussels No concrete elements of the Tisza Party’s program are mentioned—only that it is “Brussels-backed,” therefore automatically bad.
3️⃣ Fear-based chain reaction
If Tisza → ➡️ “austerity” ➡️ “war-time economy” ➡️ no 13th–14th month pension ➡️ no family support ➡️ no housing support ➡️ no SME loans
👉 This is not analysis, but apocalyptic slippage.
4️⃣ Conditional absolution
“It could be argued logically” This is a rhetorical trick: it pretends to be fair-minded, then immediately buries the entire argument.
5️⃣ What is deliberately left unsaid
Not a word about:
the real state of public finances,
the absence of EU funds,
inflation,
or the fact that all of these are already creating budgetary pressure.
In short:
This is not an economic debate, but 👉 a “if you don’t vote for me, everything will be taken away from you” narrative.
The situation is that this money would be far better spent here on the Great Hungarian Plain, in the form of a modern road, than being blown to pieces in Donbas and ending up in the side pocket of some Ukrainian oligarch. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is also what is at stake in next year’s election.
And if we’re already talking about roads: which road will we take? We live in a democracy; Hungarians get to decide this—and rightly so, every four years, they decide which direction we should go.
It is clearly visible that there are two paths ahead of us. We can take the Brussels path, which means our money is taken away from here, used somewhere else, and others benefit and develop from it.
Or we have the option to stay here, in Hungary—to stay on the Hungarian path—and continue as we have over the past 15 years. In that case, Hungary will develop, Hungary will grow, and Hungary will become stronger.
For that, of course, we must retain all of our mandates.

The newly opened 34.3-kilometer section cost 170 billion HUF. That means the cost is approximately 4.96 billion HUF per kilometer — roughly 5 billion HUF/km.
Mark Rutte’s war obsession knows no bounds! According to him, Europe is ready to send troops to Ukraine, and our young people are ready to take up arms. The NATO Secretary General wants war at any cost, and he is backed by Brussels and its domestic outposts, Tisza Party and Democratic Coalition, because they are pro-war. We, however, will not give our sons and daughters to fight someone else’s war! Those who want peace should choose a pro-peace government!
– I’m currently reading the banned copy of the newspaper Bors, because in the 1980s truth itself became samizdat.
One of the capital’s Tisza-affiliated judges banned a special edition of the paper Bors that describes the truth about what the Tisza people actually want to do. The big Tisza austerity package is coming: people will have to pay more taxes and earn less. While Fidesz says more income and lower utility costs, the Tisza people are thinking in terms of lower wages and higher utility bills, through austerity and taxes. And what is truly shocking is that in Hungary in 2025 a judge decides to ban the truth and ban a newspaper. How lucky we are that Hungarian judges are independent — which apparently means they only flatter the Tisza Party.
The message sent by Lázár János, on behalf of the government, to the courts and to the people of Hungary is that he does not regard the judiciary as a legitimate, independent institution. Instead, he presents it as a political adversary that “conceals the truth,” thereby preemptively calling into question any future judicial decision that may be unfavorable to him or to the government.
