Ever since Orban came to power in Hungary, everything has turned for the worse for the Hungarians. Hungary has had one of the biggest declines in freedoms since Orban took office, according to ‘Freedom House’ 2020 report, they’ve lost -21 in freedom points in the last decade.
Here’s some interesting information about how life is in Hungary which Orban fanboys never talk about, they like to just focus on his ‘anti-immigration’ stance. Also, OECD gave Hungary a 5.6 which is less than the average which is 6.5..

While the the average Hungarian are being increasingly impoverished, meanwhile the jew Orban makes sure the jews in Hungary has it good by putting the ”holohoax survivor” stamp on them.
And if that wasn’t enough, Orban set aside $5.6 million for social welfare services for holohoax survivors of Hungarian origin living outside of Hungary
He’s giving away all that money for fake holohoax victims when it’s obvious the Hungarian people are in desperate need of those money as the a lot of the living conditions in Hungary needs to improve. So much for being a 'Hungarian' nationalist right?

A few half-baked thoughts on Laschet and Syria and some such.
First off, it's revolting to see any mainstream politician spread what appear to be conspiracy theories about atrocities committed by the Assad regime in the Syrian war. In fact, to *volunteer* them. Unprompted. /1
I stopped counting the dozens of friends, colleagues, officials from around the world, but in particular, the Middle East, who have sent me his tweets over the past week. The common response from Berlin appears to be an uncomfortable "well, he's not a foreign policy guy..." /2
But he is! I think it's easy to underestimate the man and his jovial, slightly pudgy and self-deprecating persona. There's also a tendency in Berlin and outside to confuse regional politics (and accents!) for provincialism. But Laschet is from Aachen - in the heart of Europe. /3
His first job in politics was with Hans Stercken, then-chairman of the Bundestag's foreign affairs committee, in the tumultuous mid-late 80s. As a new member of Bundestag in 1994, he joined the committees for int development, EU affairs, and foreign affairs (as an alternate). /4
Some headlines refer to him as a "Merkel-loyalist". At least when I flipped thru his record from the 90s, I got a sense of a man with profound convictions: A passionate European. But also an early proponent of CDU-Greens rapprochement based on a shared moralistic worldview. /5

I have a genuine question for people who support Laschet: Are you not bothered by his foreign policy views? Even Syria conspiracy theories aside, his views on Russia are deeply worrying to me. Do you happen to agree with him or do you just think other things are more important? https://t.co/22Xke53jgv
