Would somebody from Hungary please clarify: Does anyone in Hungary seriously believe that Ukraine — a country fighting to survive a war with Russia — has ANY plans to invade Hungary, as Viktor Orbán wants people to believe?

This guy is, above all, a power-hungry asshole!

@kristen_d @randahl yeah, and that's not even his looks.

[reep@troet.cafe]

@randahl Disgusting.

@randahl
He’s just pathetic. He’s got absolutely nothing to say, just trying to paint Ukraine as the enemy.

[justinderrick@mstdn.ca]

@randahl Uh, didn’t Hitler pull this shit? I can’t remember if it was Poland or Belgium - the government insisted Germany was going to be attacked, so they invaded them “defensively”.

@JustinDerrick
Poland. The made up a fake attack of Polish soldiers (SS men in costumes) against a radio station (Gleiwitz) to start WW2.

@randahl Elections are coming up in a month in Hungary, and Orbán will say anything that helps him win and stay in power. Unfortunately, spreading fear and portraying himself as a victim still manages to win elections.

@randahl

The most sensible Hungarians had already scattered across Europe by the time Hungary joined the EU. Many Hungarians are nationalists or pro-Russian, despite the fact that in both cases they have been duped by those parties. Why is that? If you’re kept in the dark and fed propaganda, this is what you end up with. Hungary now, Hungary then.

@randahl

But there is hope; young Hungarians in particular are seeing through the lies more and more clearly. Especially if they live and work elsewhere in Europe. Hopefully they will vote, just as I do. I don’t know if Magyar can tear everything down and build it up again, but there is hope.

@randahl@mastodon.social orban has an election to win. this will take place in a few weeks. he has to look strong

[highwaytohell@muenchen.social]

@randahl Den Deppen, die jemanden wie #orban wählen, kann man alles erzählen.

[janhelms@rheinneckar.social]

@randahl If you are fed the same "news" through all channels, TV, radio, newspapers, many internet portals, and if you don't speak English well enough to read or see foreign news, then - yes. There are people that believe this, they also believe that Bruxelles is the new Moscow or hat Soros is the arch enemy.

@randahl If Ukraine falls and Russia continues into Hungary Orban will find his surprised Pikachu face.

What side was his family on in 1956?

[grovewest@mstdn.social]

@randahl For one by parting his hair down the middle he looks like a Star Wars alien bad guy. My grandparents were from Hungary. They left after it split with Austria and thought it was just a matter of time before someone invaded - again. Maybe Orban thinks he can playing off old fears to distract from his corruption and incompetence.

This gift has been honourably bestowed upon you. Use it wisely and maximise its impact to the fullest.

@randahl

Viktor Orban should focus on preparations to flee to Moscow, like Assad & Yanukovych .
