There is a very specific reason for this. The current Hungarian fascist state is the one American conservatives would love to emulate.

I saw a reddit comment saying that if CPAC had been around in 1934, they'd have held it in Nuremberg.

I tend to agree.

Orban is everything Trump wished he could be so this checks out. Alt righters and white nationalists dug into how "based" Hungary was quite some time ago and now mainstream conservatives are attaching themselves to it. This is America's future unless something changes fast.

If not fascist it's certainly a far right authoritarian state.

Okay here's the whole argument

The people in charge are not fascists. They are far right conservatives. This is not the same thing.

I'd be interested to see why you think Orban and/or the leaders of Hungary are fascists.

Bio doesn't know the difference between anything less left than himself, and full-blown fascism. I wouldn't waste your time.

It's definitely courting facism with the anti-immigration, anti-rights, nationalism and I know some Hungarian expats who would say much worse.

Also this is the weird hill to die on; defending Hungarys shit government.

Like, this would be like if Dems held something similar in a far left shit hole country. But again, conservatives dont have self-awareness.

I'm not defending their government or their policies, I object to them being called fascists. It's offensive and comes from a place of naivete and/or ignorance.

Whats offensive is their government and your obvious need to go to bat for them.
