What happened, did they discover oil in Hungary? Are they doing a socialism?

      Yeah, that's why the EU is adressing the destruction of Hungary's (bourgeois) "democracy" now. They turned a blind eye to Orban's openly fascist course for Hungary for more than a decade because he let them loot the country for megaprofits. Now that he's refusing to participate in sanctions against Russia they're threatening to do what they should have done 12 years ago to leverage him.

      Either way they're not going to kick Hungary out of the EU because they're still profiting massively from looting Hungary and the cheap labour Hungarians provide to Western European countries.

        Which is funny because according to an article of RFE's hungarian edition Orbán last week in a meeting of the government and national bourgeoisie/conservative influencers said that in 2030 it's time to revise Hungary's EU membership.

        But yeah, very rich of them to demand Hungary gut labor rights (literally was a condition of a BMW factory to be built here) and then whine when he doesn't want hungarians to freeze.
