There's a country with an #election in 2026 where the opposition is #centrist, not #leftist Messing with the election, corrupt manipulation, by its authoritarian leader, figures in the election So what's the point of voting? Well the point is better, not perfection Btw: I'm not talking about the #USA I'm talking about #Hungary, where this is just announced: https://www.portfolio.hu/gazdasag/20260926/magyar-peter-bejelentette-2027-tol-jon-az-eddigi-terveknel-is-szigorubb-vagyonado-865408 So, for you Americans buried in #cynicism and #perfection, what are you learning? #Vote! #WealthTax

👻 After three visits, I still get goosebumps as I push open the heavy doors and step inside once more. This spectacular control room was built in the 1920s in Art Deco style. Natural light enters through an immense central skylight. Levers, switches, and dials line the walls, while crescent-shaped panels encircle the space. A concrete bunker with a steel door stands to one side, built to protect workers during WW2 air strikes. #ArtDeco #Photography #Architecture #Hungary #LostPlace #Adventure

🇭🇺 #Hungary’s OTP Bank is considering a complete exit from #Russia, Bloomberg reported. The bank has continued operating there since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, but its Russian business could hinder approval of its planned purchase of Baltic lender Luminor Bank. https://meduza.io/en/news/2026/09/28/bloomberg-hungary-s-otp-bank-considers-a-full-russia-exit-as-regulators-review-its-purchase-of-baltic-lender-luminor

In the #USA important #midterms are coming up " #Trump is going to mess with the #election" "On a particular issue, both sides don't offer me anything" "The #Democrats are going to win, they don't need me" etc #Perfectionism and #cynicism, as well as #MAGA, is how we creep towards #fascism Another country earlier this year was facing similar/ worse prospects of meddling The people showed up And look at #Hungary now: https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2026/09/25/8055020/ We can kill Trump's agenda for 2 years: #Vote

“Europe’s Left and the Far Right: Lessons From Central and Eastern Europe on War, Work, and Resistance“ by Ana Vračar in Savage Minds on Substack @uk_politics@UKLabour@mastodon.cloud@thegreenparty@ZackPolanski@mastodon.green@ZackPolanski@mastox.eu@resist_fascism@mstdn.social@Yogiomm@toad.social “The left’s capacity to build knowledge, organisation, and struggle was a central theme at this year’s #ManiFiesta, introduced during a discussion of Peter Mertens’ new book, ‘The Last Days of the Old Normal’. In the context of #Europe’s ongoing armament, these questions are crucial not only for progressive movements in core countries but also for those building alternatives in Central and Eastern Europe” https://open.substack.com/pub/savageminds/p/europes-left-and-the-far-right #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #FarRight #Europe #EasternEurope #Left #Lessons #Hungary #Orban #Germany #WorkingClass #Rearmament #Ukraine #AfD #Militarisation

Hungary to shut nuclear plant as heatwave hits central Europe https://phys.org/news/2026-08-hungary-nuclear-heatwave-central-europe.html #Europe #Hungary #environment #water #weather #temperature #heat #heatwave #energy #nuclear

If in #America, as happened in #Hungary popular reaction to #corruption / #fascism will be strong enough to wipe out Trump and #MAGAs... Americans will see a 60/70% of MAGA 'politician' resign quickly 'to spend more time with their family' They will try to 'disappear' as quickly as possible from the public stage They will do so in the hope of not being legally prosecuted for the crimes they committed for Trump. DO NOT make the mistake of letting them go unpunished. there must be accountability

One of the Budapest subways got shut down today... because a boar walked in. It happened downtown, at the Parliament station. This is not a metaphor. No one knows where the boar came from 😆 #Budapest #Hungary #PublicTransport

Repülj, Madár, Repülj (Fly, Bird, Fly) - Trad. sung by Martá Sebestyén with Muzsikás A beautiful Hungarian folk song sung here by Martá Sebestyén. She actually performed this song at the opening of the Hungarian Garden here in the capital back in August 2003. 🎵Fly, bird, fly Fly to Menaság Sit on the shoulder Of my sweetheart Take my letter, bird, And carry it To my father and mother And to my promised spouse If they ask you how I am Tell them I am a prisoner In the prison of love I'm knee deep in iron. 🎵 #JukeboxFridayNight #birds #Hungary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbTS9WXkgS4

I don't know who's following the news, but the Danube and other rivers are at an all time low in Hungary. A whole lot of stuff is coming to light. So far people have found a Roman gravestone, mammoth bones, an 18th century fortress, several ships and boats, a WWII German motorbike, at least one stolen car, two discarded guns, and a whole lot of wartime explosives and ammo. What a time to be mudlarking. #Danube #drought #ClimateChange #Hungary

Danube's record low levels force shutdown of Hungary's only nuclear plant https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn0nqv05g0do?at_medium=RSS/Mastodon #Hungary #energy #nuclear #NuclearPlant #NuclearPower

A fascinating article about how a group of journalists working for the Hungary state news agency quietly documented all the ways the news was manipulated under the Orbán regime. They have now released a detailed report. Among many things, this is a terrific example of resistance during the rule of authoritarian regimes. Document, document, document the abuses because one day the sun will shine and the truth can be revealed. #Hungary #resistance #PressFreedom #journalism https://telex.hu/english/2026/08/04/nearly-500-page-document-compiled-by-hungary-s-state-news-service-staff-details-how-news-was-manipulated-during-orban-era

In Hungarian, the equivalent of "woke up on the wrong side of the bed" (as in, having a grumpy day) is "Peed on nettles" 😄 #Hungary #linguistics

Paks, 1979 Workers on the construction of Hungary's only nuclear power plant located in the town of Paks on the Danube river, some 120 kilometres south of Budapest. The plant is about to be shut down for the first time its 44 year history due to low river levels, meaning there isn't enough water to cool the reactors.
