Summary

Hungary’s parliament passed a law banning Pride events and allowing facial recognition to identify and fine attendees.

The legislation, backed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s party, passed 136-27 and expands Hungary’s “child protection” law, which restricts LGBTQ+ content. Amnesty International condemned it as a “full-frontal attack” on LGBTQ+ rights.

Critics argue Orbán is scapegoating minorities to distract from economic issues and boost far-right support ahead of elections.

Budapest Pride organizers vowed to proceed with their march despite fines of up to 200,000 forints (£425).

    Fuck off with that.

    Your device runs Neumann memory architecture. Neumann btw is the father of Game Theory. He also did plenty of calculations for the Manhattan Project as he was a genius. Not to mention the other Hungarian Scientists on that project.

    Semmelweis the savior of mothers.

    Szentgyörgyi the discoverer of C vitamin.

    Rubik’s Cube.

    Ballpoint pen.

    Safety match.

    Dynamo.

    These are all inventions by Hungarians.

    And there is plenty more, just because you are an ignorant slut doesn’t mean that Putin’s Slut is what makes Hungary Relevant.

          I didn’t call any Hungarian anything. I said that the country, as it is governed right now, is a puppet troll state and that’s the only reason it’s relevant in contemporary news cycles.

          Hungarians have great history and everything but current smog of bullshit leaves no space to highlight any of that.
