Mixed feelings. On the one hand more challenge from China to western hegemony can only be good, but on the other hand Hungary eww. Orban is leading Hungary down a pretty reactionary path.
yeah, but he’s also doing a putin, in that he keeps a carefully groomed batch of outright nazis so he can appear to be the only thing standing between them and the wheels of power. when they try to be less openly nazis to gain more votes, he throws them out and gets a new batch (jobbik -> mi hazank).
of course, it’s super easy to get new groups of nazis in a country where they just grow on the sides of roads like weeds…
