USA 2024?

@jwildeboer Elections where other countries openly support candidates is such a problem. Bad enough when the election interference was only behind the scenes.

@jwildeboer On a positive note, the people of Hungary seem to disagree in the polls.

@marlin I hope they keep it up in the votes too. Because that's where the real count happens. Go, Hungary! Vote for democracy!

@jwildeboer Putin and Trump supporting the same candidate isn't _that_ weird, though. They want the same world. A world of old white men fighting over superiority. A world like a toxic sports competition.

@sus @jwildeboer I personally won't have that much of a problem with other countries interfering _against_ Orbán, Trump, Putin, the Iranian regime, Netanyahu, Meloni, … Surely not if other countries' civil societies do it, but also not really if other countries' governments do.
