New opportunities and horizons for struggle for the Hungarian people. This means a new fight is starting, but perhaps on better footing.

It's just so shocking that white hot charisma deity JD Vance couldn't save Orban

But more seriously, this is the result of massive and sustained anti-authoritarian organizing in Hungary. Regular Hungarians increasinly built solidarity across different identities and ultimately refusing to leave anyone behind. Orban lost once regular Hungarians were willing to defy the government for their queer neighbors especially. Mass movement building and public protest mattered, building alternative media mattered, direct action mattered, and above all solidarity mattered.
This is big for Hungarians, and Hungarians have also done a great service for all of us abroad. Orban's political machine is a lyncpin of international fascism, and they're going to have to scramble to keep those operations running in much more difficult conditions. Hungarians have struck a blow against basically every fascist party in the Americas and Europe.

@PallasRiot IMHO it also proves that MAGA isn’t invincible, in fact they are quite weak.
But the left has to continue to organize hard and seriously in order to quell this ugly tide .

Liberal commentariat take note: one of the most visible turning points was Budapest Pride last year, when the Hungarian anti-authoritarian movement refused to back down from defending queer folks. Orban's power was broken in a major way when Hungarian organizing reached a point at which regular Hungarians started defending people because they were the people under attack, without concern for the supposed issues underneath. The question was not whether gay love is equal to straight love or whether trans people are who they say they are, but rather who does the regime want us to hate and how do we fight on that front?

On the electoral campaigning side, Peter Magyar's strategy was basically to be everywhere and talk with everyone. Go to every little one horse town, talk to anyone no matter how many fascist flags they're waving, get your counter messaging directly to people, etc. It took like 75% voter turnout to beat Orban's gerrymandering, rigged election laws, and control of media. Anti-corruption messaging remains powerful but you have to get it to people.

@PallasRiot @jaredwhite Magyar's strategy sure sounds a lot like the mayor of NYC. Perhaps the next challenge is how do you "press the flesh" in a country with 35x the population (US/Hungary)?

@PallasRiot I’m quite excited. Their protests were widely displayed here on the media. Bravo! To better days.
