Flick through pro-government Hungarian accounts on TikTok, and you might see an AI-generated version of Volodymyr Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, sitting on a golden toilet, counting his money, snorting cocaine, and barking orders at a Hungarian soldier.
You might also find an AI-generated Péter Magyar, the leader of the Hungarian opposition, appearing to say he’s fine with handing Hungarian factories over to foreigners, as long as he’s the one in charge of the country.

Der korrupte Autokrat Victor #Orban droht der #Ukraine damit, Gaslieferungen einzufrieren.
Das müsste man so beantworten, dass auch seitens angrenzender Länder und der EU Energielieferungen u.a. eingefroren werden.

Parlamentswahl in Ungarn: Orbán will Wahlergebnis wohl anerkennen
Nach 16 Jahren an der Macht könnte Ungarns Präsident an diesem Sonntag abgewählt werden. Bei der Stimmabgabe gibt sich Langzeitherrscher Viktor Orbán kämpferisch – deutet aber auch Fairness im Fall einer Niederlage an.

April 13, 2026
On April 12, the day of Hungary’s parliamentary elections, the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) posted on social media that it was closely watching the election and stood firmly behind Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

Hungary is hardly a democracy at all.
It’s an autocratic, kleptocratic mafia state,
where all the levers of power are controlled behind the scenes by a single man.
Since returning to power in 2010, Orbšn has rewritten the constitution and amended it fifteen times,
changed the electoral laws to give his party structural advantages,
captured the top layerof the judiciary,
occupied the chief prosecutor’s office to protect his cronies and prosecute his enemi…

Orbán Will Lose Hungary’s Election in Two Weeks—If It’s Clean
Péter Magyar is a seemingly unstoppable force—but don’t expect the embattled Orbán to give up without a fight.

It's mind boggling how US commentators, media or ordinary people, oversimplify what is happening in Hungary. A blank cheque was written to someone who was extremely secretive during his campaign. Probably the only confirmed fact was that his career is extremely tightly woven in Fidesz. We've seen many saviors like this in Eastern Europe. Yes, not Orban, but easily his proxy. Think Dimitry Medvedev if you need a famous example. Did he oust Putin?

Hungarians still associate Ottomans with bad memories, clearly. 😁 https://mastodon.social/@eunews/116379841095973533

JD Vance repeatedly criticised allegedly unprecedented and “disgraceful” foreign interference in the Hungarian parliamentary election,
while effectively strongly endorsing Viktor Orbšn to win the vote on Sunday
in what critics will no doubt see as his very own interference with the country’s electoral process.
