yup the Hungarians Ive worked with all deplore Orban- the same old fascist model of scapegoating immigrants to distract from your own corruption
Yeah, they laugh about Brexit here and usually state “oh well, it’s not that serious, you’re country isn’t racist like ours is racist”.
We do half arsed racism, we’re so politically apathetic I think that when we do it half the time we don’t even believe in or act on our own xenophobia. The one thing that makes me feel easier about my country are the stories that my Romanian, Greek and Hungarian friends tell.
A lot of Brexit voters were only racist enough to vote for Brexit if their pockets weren’t damaged that hard, parts of Europe are prone to tearing themselves completely apart and starting big **** off wars over it though. That is something the British, could weirdly, be patriotically proud of – but they aren’t – they’re even apathetic about the good points of their own bloody country.
