So since Google and Meta banned political ads, the Hungarian government is trying different ways to get election ads to the people, since at this point they are going to lose and very possibly prosecuted for various crimes like embezzlement and child rape.
The booming disembodied voice is saying (my comments in parentheses):
Twenty years ago at Röszke (southern border town of Hungary), something happened that we can never forget. Hordes of migrants appeared on the border, not with good intentions, not with papers, not with requests, but with stones, sticks and violence. They didn’t ask for admission, they tried to break through the fence. The defenders of our country opposed them, stopped those that didn’t respect our laws, borders or our homeland. We didn’t retreat, we defended Hungary, but the fight has not ended. Brussels is fining us 400 million forints daily because we don’t want to let aliens in. But there are those that would give in to Brussels and would let migrants in. We see where this led in Western Europe…
The recording cuts away here.
We now live in security. But only one bad choice/election (the word means both in Hungarian), and there goes our peace, and our security as well. One bad choice/election, and we will also become and immigrant country. Get to know what we could lose on “rosszvalasztas.hu” (badchoice/election.hu).
This is fear- and hatemongering through wartime rhetoric. Also disparaging the EU they are part of.
doG, I hope there’s still enough democracy left in Hungary to make them not only lose the election fair and square but also be held accountable.
There is, Orbán is losing, that’s why they are afraid, hence the strentgthening of the propaganda.
Polls are 52%-36% for a new government. Orbán couldn’t even stop Pride, he banned it and Hungary made it the single largest public event since 70 years.
More that 5% of the country was marching in Budapest while knowing that Orbán threatened to fine and jail everyone. He tried and failed to do that, even to the organisers.
