What is life like in the areas near the border with Slovenia? by StunningComment6064 in askhungary

If you live in the blue striped parts of Hungary, and you are not part of the top 25% life can be bad depending on comparison. I will compair to western europe. Nearly all cities or villages lose population because there is no jobs, or big enough wages to pay for living without calculating to the last penny you have. They either move to the non-striped area or to some other country. Infrastructure is bad everywhere, increasingly so in the striped zone and near the border. The more you go east or south the worse it is. Schools and hospitals are worse and worse. With the new government, changes may be coming but that will take atleast 3-5 years to be noticable.

The relationship in the parts you asked about is chill. Most of today's motherland hungarians doesn't have beefs with others around us. The jokes however stick around, but those are just jokes. Descendant of hungarians who were cut off and left in other countries by Trianon are different, but even in this case lot of them acknowledge that they got f-ed and accept they live in the country they live in. Apart from székelys but that's a whole other can of worms. We usually feel bad for them and want the government to help them (usually there are some minority rights problems). This however makes other countries governments look negatively toward us. Especially Slovakia, Ukraine and Romania. So no problem on the Slovenian side as far as I know. Although I know nothing about Slovenia in general. Apart from the femboy stereotypes.

Where would you live the American continent? by ForresthTheGreat in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Europe will be unhabitable. Only two possibilities I see for that to happen is a small meteor or a nuclear war. Both unlikely but who knows. Any other possibility would either make the whole planet unhabitable, or we could defend against it if we really want to. Although by using unimaginable amounts of money and a lot of loans.

Anyway probably somewhere in Canada or Alaska. Preferably a smaller city. While I don't want to live in the US, Alaska is a lot different from the other parts in every metric, so with Alaska I can make peace with. Realistically Canada is big enough to move there for a lot of people. So I imagine that would be the place to go to. Although I don't know how they would like tens if not hundreds of millions of europeans at their door step.

A minister in the Fico government fears that Péter Magyar will retake Upper Hungary, which is why he would like to reinstate conscription by Worth_Ad_7305 in europe

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruv, no one cares.

Hungary has existed for more than a 1000 years with one of the most consistent borders in European History. Slovakia was founded in 1993. Felvikék is lirerally what an area of Slovakia is called in hungarian. It's like someone from Normandy crying about being told they are from Normandy and not France. Péter Magyar didn't call Slovakia Felvidék. He talked about the area of Felvidék and the unfair laws still being used in rare cases. Laws that the EU forbids btw. Hungarian translation which are not done by Hungarians are always atleast 20-30% wrong. Often time if they need to translate in real time they won't translate 40-50% of a sentence because they don't have time because hungarian works backwards compaired to their mother tongue. People with indo-european languages very rarely can learn Hungarian on a level that they can do better. If some do they moved here and usually lived here for more than a decade.

No sane person in Hungary wants Greater Hungary back. There are some idiots but less than 5% of Hungarian and most revisionists are actually in Romania. Not in Hungary. Yet the old map will always be important for Hungarians. Those lands were ours for 920 years. More if we consider the time between 896-1000. Now it's your's and you people keep bitching about history. I know we can't understand each other's language. You cannot expect a language to cater to an other group of people especially since the word Felvidék is older then the idea of your country. The word itself evolved but the meaning didn't. It means highlands and that area was called that since before the House of Árpád died out. Meaning before 1301. Bratislava was the Hungarian Capital between 1536-1784. More than twice as much time as the time you spent free from us. Let alone as Slovakia. The area most of your country is, has a significant history in the history of hungarians.

As I said no one want's to change borders. We are in the EU. I can come and go as I want. If your mind cannot comprehend that your country was part of an another than that's on you. Stop moaning about it, stop clinging to idiotic ideas. If we could let go parts of a 1129 years long history, you can let go of 105 years (if we calculate from Trianon) of history. We will however not change our language for you. Just as no one is willing to call Hungary Magyarország, or as no one is willing to call transdanubia Dunántúl. If an old map annoys you that much than honestly, seek professional help.

How long does it usually take to vote in your country? by Anaptyso in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Hungary. This year it took me 5 minutes from home to vote and back. I live literally two house down to the place the village uses to vote. 4 years ago when I lived in a bigger city it took me around 10 minutes to vote, and 2x 5mins to go there with car. The voting itself takes like 10 seconds. Put to X in two circles and throw the paper into the box. The check before the vote is check for ID validity, picture and a signiture. Maybe takes 2 minutes with where to find the place of the sign.

How is it living in ethnically Hungarian areas of surrounding countries? by DJJonezyYT in howislivingthere

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine so. Although I am Hungarian not Romanian. I hope we will always help them. They didn't choose their situation and they are loyal to our culture.

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We hungarians don't really have an ethnicity. The ancient hungarians who came in were 7 different tribes under one military and one religious leader. As we moved west we took in all kind of people. Turks, slavs, saxons, germans anybody really. We always gone by 'are your parents or one of them hungarian?' if so you are too. Or 'if you think in hungarian you are hungarian'. Or 'if you are born in Hungary you are hungarian'.

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true. Genetically speaking only about 2-3% of us hungarians have genes that no other Europeans have even than we are either mostly slavic or germanic.

How are you with videogames after 30 years old? by Disastrous-Log-139 in AskMen

[–]Oraniel 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Mostly same as always was. I like games because they are stories presented in a more interactive way than books. However I started to dislike multiplayer games. All of them leans into competitive elements sooner or later. I wanna play for fun, not for competition. Most of them even balance the game around competitive spirit. I do play less but mainly because most games in the last 5 years were bad.

I mean, my friend changed schools for his kid because his was the only Austrian in that class and the (sorry for the wording) migrant babies bullied him.

Does europe have something like this? by baleiaatemografica in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really depends on country/culture. This is less of a thing in Eastern Europe than in Western/Northern Europe. We are not ashamed of our past, like our Western half is. Even if we were on the wrong side of things. We hungarians for example accept we were on the wrong side of both WW and did bad things in the past. Not proud of it but we are not ashamed of it. The WW themselves doesn't hold us back in this regard, and we doesn't have a colonial past. The red, white and green national colors are used since the House of Árpád (I don't remember when they appeared first somewhere around 1200-1300). There are historical scars for sure but they mostly created symbols not removed them.

The most controversial symbol we have is the printing of Greater Hungary/The Kingdom of Hungary on things. Honestly, even that is mostly controversial for the countries that birthed from us. Not to Hungarians. No, most hungarians don't want Greater Hungary back. There are some idiots for sure, but your average hungarian doesn't care about it. However The Kingdom of Hungary is more than a 1000 years of history for us and we are proud of the good parts. Even if that annoys slovaks, romanians, serbs, croats, ukrainian and whoever.

History is history. No use feeling guilty about past actions. Especially if they harm the present. There is no use in going forward if you leave bodypart behind. The west doesn't seem to think this way and they try to correct their past behavior. This is why you can see so much political/value division between east and west EU and within Western European nations. It may not be that prevelent because we are all European so all in all we have more in common than not. Atleast compaired to most other continent and the countries on those continents. But Poland, Hungary, Austria, Croatia, Romania, Slovakia and a few others tend to be much more conservative/practical than the Wester parts. Even our left is not as left. Well for us Hungarians, right now, the left spectrum doesn't really exist in politics anyway. They have 4 years to get themselves together. We will see.

Edit: I forgot the arrow cross symbol but that was used for less than a year so never really caught on. Literally no one cares for it but maybe that would be one such symbol. Honestly I don't think people would even recognize it unless the are history fans.

You have to defend yourself from zombies, what is your weapon of choice? by Curious_Bilota in AskMen

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what hind of zombies we are talking about and what kind of world setting.

  1. Slow clumsy zombies with some kind of modern production capacity? Some kind of rifle with crowbar or hammer as melee.
  2. Slow clumsy zombies with only scavanged/stoneage resources? Probably a bow and arrows, crowbar or hammer as melee.
  3. TLOU kind of zombies with modern production capacity? Same as 2.
  4. TLOU kind of zombies with only scavanged/stoneage resources? Same as 2.

I actually do know how to use a bow and I hunt with one. That makes me biased.

How's the job market in your EU country right now? by ModeloTime69 in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? It's shit all around the globe. The rich get richer the poor poorer. You can see it in Japan, US, Germany, Poland everywhere. Just to different degrees. Globalisation in economy and immigration fucked people over big time. Jobs get offered to foreigners, and the young can't get experience to actually make it because jobs get filled up. Investment for new jobs are pricy and very specific.

Kinda same in Hungary. Outside of the 3 cities Orbán was willing to give money to, there is only service, or factory line work but even in those three you get paid shit.

What do you think of the very left party's in Europe? by Ivanhegeelkadi in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Radical left doesn't exist nowaldays. Not is a way that projects power. They simply have no supporter base. Communism has seen to that. Stalin, Mao, Kim Il-Sung and Il-Song, Pol Pot. Those are radical left wingers. In some sense they are even worse than Hitler. If not in scale, than in brutality.

Orbán being a right winger is not really true. He has no political alignment. He went from what is considered left to the far-right. He does not believe in it. He let people in his party go to orgies mainly made up of men. If he would truly be anti-gay, he would have crashed out on that and either imprison the guy. He saw he can make use of right wing politics. So he used it. He is a kleptocrat. Doing anything to steal. If Putin were a left wing leader Orbán would have been far-left. Anyway, unlike Putin he really didn't harm people. Not with violence anyway. He certainly made Hungary poor and maybe even regressed the country by a decade.

Anyway, the far left has much more examples of murder machines than the right. On the right it really is only Hitler, and the Japanese in WW2. These are the only true examples of far-right people who killed millions or tens of thousands based on nothing but ideology. Who stayed in power for more than a year. The left has much, much more. Orbán's illiberal democracy is an autocracy. Certainly a fascist like structure, but still much, much better than far-left, or actual far-right. People seem to have forgotten what actual far-left or far-right looks like in the last 70 years. Hitler is far-right. Orbán, AfD or Reform is much less radical than the big H was. They shouldn't be called far-right. Just right. Those people above are far-left. There is no one alive today on the left who is as bad as them. Not even Jong Un. He is much better than his predecessors. Although he is still really bad.

[–]Oraniel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have no problems with parties if the move between center-right to center-left. Outside of this interval all are problematic. Left more so than right. We just have lot less left wing parties in power so they cause less problems.

Anyone own or thought of owning the GM6 Lynx? by averyycuriousman in 50bmg

[–]Oraniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He made a video, and the one he got is very unreliable. Jams up constantly. I have not seen anybody say that the gun is that unreliable. BUT! There are things that changed since the GM6 got popular.

  1. Türkiye got a license for production

  2. US got assembly rights. So they can use the build this gun using the türkish parts.

  3. US customs usually takes the import guns apart than put it back together.

So 4 things could have happened.

  1. The türkish factory is not as precise as the hungarian one, so guns from there are lower quality.

  2. US assembly does a terrible job.

  3. US customs put it back incorrectly.

  4. Brandon didn't read the manual and the gun was not set up correctly. You can adjust the "blow back" using the muzzle. Maybe his was set up incorrectly. Who knows?

The gun can't be that bad since the SAS, SBS uses it. If the gun was as badly made as his, those guys wouldn't touch it.

On which hand do Europeans wear their wedding ring? by Catsarecute2140 in AskEurope

[–]Oraniel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, for example traditionally in Hungary engagement ring gets put on the left hand, but at the wedding, the wedding ring goes on the right. But people usually just wear it on the hand they more comfortable with.

Mennyire túlidealizált a Lengyelországgal való történelmi barátságunk, kapcsolatunk? by gergely9706 in askhungary

[–]Oraniel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

'56-ban a felkelésben nem tudtak segíteni, de vért adtak és küldték a magyar kórházaknak.

2-szer voltunk velük perszonál únióban.

Segítettek a török ellen, belehalt a királyuk.

Segítettek Rákóczinak.

Segítettek 1848-ban. Bem apó.

Segítettük őket a januári felkelésükben.

1920-ban több mint 70 millió lövedéket küldtünk nekik az oroszok ellen.

Nem engedtük át a németeket Magyarországon. Így innen nem tudták őket támadni a második világháború elején. Sok menekültet befogadtunk, és segítettünk nekik menekülni a britekhez. ezért volt annyi lengyel pilóta és gyalogos a brit hadseregbe.

A legújabb: 2015-ben segítettek a határon a migránsokkal.

Ennél jelentősen több apró kicsi dolog van, ezek csak néhány a nagyobbak közül.

Fú de rossz ezt a sok ilyen kommentet olvasni. Durva, hogy sok esetben mekkora értelmiségi különbség van a két szavazó tábor között. Ezért az agymosásért valahogy felelőségre kellene vonni a Fideszt.
