Hungary’s pro-Kremlin leader Viktor Orban takes over the rotating presidency of the European Council on July 1, just weeks after fellow nationalist and populist parties surged across the bloc in European polls. Hungarian diplomats have promised a “normal” presidency over the coming six months, while experts note that the role carries limited powers. But Orban’s choice of slogan for the job suggests the EU’s serial provocateur is unlikely to shun the spotlight.
Fuck fascists, and they are never original either, aren’t they.
They don’t have to be, the people following them are idiots.
I’d even say they can’t be, their followers need politics boiled down to a catchphrase or else they’ll get confused
I am fairly sure there are pretty intelligent supporters of fast-right leaders (too). And I think there are two angles here: One is how much you let irrational fears and bad instincts take ahold of you, the other is whether you are going out for personal gain.
