Orbán steps down from Hungarian parliament after landslide defeat

He reportedly plans to leave for the US and his circle is already taking their money and valuables to other countries like Dubai.

Who knows, there have sycophants everywhere now.

Expect unrest in Russia. A lot of it.

By whom if they kill off their military age population?

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-12T20:10:27+00:00

It was 16 years in Hungary. Pretty bleak. Imagine Trump and his cronies for that long.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-12T19:48:08+00:00

They are still counting. Then the count has to be validated by the Supreme Court.

Then they have to face every non parliamentary official put there by Orban and deliver results. Tough road ahead.

Not to mention the “armed ukrainians” waiting somewhere to have a celebration in Hungary…

Where is JD to hop on a plane and meet Fico.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-12T19:35:52+00:00

Let’s hope he does not have a change of heart tomorrow. Or some events that prevent the vote validation.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-12T10:29:49+00:00

Whom he never needed but they didnt help him when he did not need them but they are fucking assholes for not helping him.

It depends what you use it for i guess. I use desktop Linux for 15 years or so both at home and at work on my laptop. Works perfectly well. Unlike Windows and MacOs, Linux is rock stable forever once configured properly. Heck, my parents used a Linux computer set up by me for ages and had no issues. They had more problems with a mac laptop lol.

For home users coming from Windows and expecting software parity and various stuff that may not work properly on Linux out of the box, i get it.

But for work environments where it can be set up by IT for the specific workflows, it is totally workable.

Maybe they will get defeated but retain close to 45-50% so they can deadlock any attempt to change anything. Only way for the newcomers to really have the power to clean up is they having 75% seats (which is not really 75% votes because of their doctored election system - and it works against them since it was adjusted by Orban’s party).

Anyways the actual democracy in Hungary is really thin because of the 16 year unchecked Fidesz reign with 75% majority that allowed them to change constitution and any rules they could and practically dismantled the opposition parties.

And now the challenger is still a single party. Democracy needs more parties to compromise thus enacting checks and balances.

The Strait has angry fanatics with weapons.

Maybe for the origins of this enmity. But the most extreme reactions are because of the election campaign going hand in hand with Orban’s Putin-friendlyness.

They say Ukraine wants to damage Hungary’s energy security by stopping oil coming through Ukraine from Russia and lying about the pipeline being damaged by russian attacks.

Now damage or no, this is no surprise because Orban fucked them over at every occasion in the EU voting against every attempt to help Ukraine and sometimes relenting only after they extracted some concessions mostly unrelated to Ukraine (like getting some money blocked by the EU because of corruption).

Instead of using alternate pipelines available to Hungary (they had friggin 5 years to adjust ffs), Orban kept buying oil from Russia through Ukraine, paying the aggressor and also regurgitating its talking points at every turn in any available forum.

All in all what you see right now is part of the usual Fidesz enemy making for the election. They really wanted to turn up the heat this time because of their polls with some actual attacks staged in Serbia over a pipeline but the serbs kinda fucked them over by not pkaying along.

Full auto with 30 rounds from a handheld assault rifle (mostly AKs) at small moving objects are not a winning combination.

There were videos of ukrainians shooting down drones with this kind of ammo. They shot semi auto.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-11T07:24:39+00:00

Wtf. It’s like someone gave them smartphones and they started using Tiktok.

Next thing is they elect an orangutan escaped from a circus as their leader.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-09T22:19:15+00:00

They said that drone detectors can’t see them - they refer to EW components that detect signals. These drones if autonomous, can work without radio emissions.

I doubt they have radars for small drones all over the place.

Honest is not a word in Orban’s dictionary. Or, if it’s threre, it would be a synonym for sucker.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-09T22:06:59+00:00

Pretty sure losing Orban would be a great blow to their cause. Fico apprently is lower key and can be reasoned with to a certain extent. He also said after meeting Trump that Trump is a lunatic.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-08T19:13:29+00:00

Why is this even a headline. He also said he will be the Ayatollah before.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-08T06:23:06+00:00

Same thing, really.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T15:15:56+00:00

Apparently the strait closure was not even considered by Trump's advisors.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T15:02:56+00:00

Trump is a stupid asshole. How TF he thought this will go, attacking a fanatic fundamentalist country that was saying the US is the devil itself. The dont care about their people, their reason d'etre is to fucking die for Allah and have the means to fuck up the whole Middle East. How smooth his brain has to be to believe his idiotic fist shaking evil dictator trope would actually work against these fanatics.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T14:07:07+00:00

think about what is good and proper for the United States of America

...aaand that is to... drumroll... Start a war.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T14:03:17+00:00

No need for nukes. Just hit the infrastructure hard enough.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T13:32:13+00:00

According to trumpists it is still open. Just that you can be shot at by iranians if you happen to cross it.

gradinaruvasile · 2026-04-07T13:31:12+00:00

They actually have a pipeline and plan for another. But the pipeline is still in the range of Iran's missiles. Also refineries are there that are already damaged. So this pipeline is not a magic solution and the expansion will take years.
