Summary
Hungary’s parliament passed a law banning Pride events and allowing facial recognition to identify and fine attendees.
The legislation, backed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s party, passed 136-27 and expands Hungary’s “child protection” law, which restricts LGBTQ+ content. Amnesty International condemned it as a “full-frontal attack” on LGBTQ+ rights.
Critics argue Orbán is scapegoating minorities to distract from economic issues and boost far-right support ahead of elections.
Budapest Pride organizers vowed to proceed with their march despite fines of up to 200,000 forints (£425).
Bro im hungarian, dont try to be an apologist. Today everyone knows about hungary for their shit. All the things you listed were invented by people who are dead/at deaths door at this point. Other thing is most of them fled from hungary before inventing those things.
Not apologist, but it’s the same as calling every single US citizen a fascist because trump
I didn’t call any Hungarian anything. I said that the country, as it is governed right now, is a puppet troll state and that’s the only reason it’s relevant in contemporary news cycles.
Hungarians have great history and everything but current smog of bullshit leaves no space to highlight any of that.
