We need to get rid of the veto power.
Even if it could mean the end of Hungary as we know it, given the decades of root-taking that Fidesz and Orban have been doing.
We might have the chance to vote Orbรกn out next March, but I'm still skeptical tbh, because Fidesz always outperformed the polls.
Unfortunately my local friends don't want to vote at all, but let's hope. t. hungarian
Having lived there a long time ago I remain with the question: is the alternative any good or even just better?
What your local friends do has bred a political class that only seeks appeal among very old voters and voting boomers or those boomers prefer (like Meloni in Italy) is always the worst one can do.
Well the most popular alternative feels like a Fidesz 2 to me, and also to a lot of my online + local friends.
It also operates on the one man popularism move, and the main figure is actually a recent ex-Fidesz guy. For some whatever reason the undecided mass believes in this party more than the 2022 coalition, so we unfortunately have to vote for this one, but imma leave the party vote part towards Kutyapรกrt for sure.
Even if this populist party turns out to be corrupt as well, they will still have to root out the old corrupt regime first and seed trust into the public first, so that doesn't leave them with much corruption ability imo.
