Too many Hungarians think that Orbán will lead Hungary out of the EU
Young Hungarians who think that PM Viktor Orbán will lead Hungary out of the European Union are in majority in Hungary, based on the latest survey of the IDEA Institute.
According to telex.hu, IDEA was curious about what Hungarians think Orbán’s policies would mean concerning Hungary’s EU membership. There are only a few issues in Hungary supported by a national consensus, but the country’s EU membership is one of them.
The current survey was conducted before Orbán vetoed the EU budget’s modification, which aimed to provide extra financial support for Ukraine. We wrote about that HERE.
44% of the Hungarian adults believed that Orbán’s policies would lead Hungary away from the EU. More women (48%) believe so than men (41%).
Meanwhile, 54% of the young Hungarians (below 30) believe that Orbán will lead Hungary out of the EU.
Interestingly, Fidesz and Socialist voters do not believe in a Huxit, while the majority of all other party supporters think Huxit is realistic.
The margin of error was ±3-4%.

Frankly, it will be a close race but I believe that Hungary will be removed from the EU before Hungary will leave on its on terms. That is when real authoritarianism begins and democracy ends. Not surprisingly, it is also when young, smart, ambitious, talented Hungarians will leave en masse. Only the scared, old, trapped, uneducated, people will stay. Those people will continue to be exploited by the kleptocracy.
The Hungarian version of groundhog day, except this started before Mohacs.
Answering ourselves factually does present at times – the need of an opinion or the making of a decision, somewhat of an agonizing emotional experience.
Decisions made on emotions not looking at ALL sides in the NEED to make an opinion, historically is a flawed process.
It is HOPED that ALL Hungarians use as a process not on EMOTION but on – 14 years that we have had to endure Victor Orban and his “lot” in Power, that have taken us, to the FACTUAL position we are to-day, that will worsen, a country simple in a cataclysmic Financial & Economic MESS.
Do we want to remain a Democracy ?
Do we, as we are doing at this point in time, fall in line “lemming” along with the Orban “mob” – and move with speed to-wards a Dictatorship ?
Do we truly not emotionally BELIEF we can Exist and GROW cover the “Black Holes” – the debt & “other” created by Orban and his Mob, not being a Member of the European Union ?
Are we Happy or Not, being an “outcast” through the image owned produced and played out by Orban and his Mob, that see’s us of NO retainment of Friendships in fact DESTROYED by Orban and his Mob, with other country’s Governed under Democracy ?
History never Lies and we in Hungary we have plenty to rekindle in our brain cells, and “hit the books” to assist not making Political decisions DRIVEN by EMOTION.
What is the Nadir of the times we live in Hungary ?
Can Orban have a “brain wave” a re-think and reverse the perilous trend course he has set us on as a country on ?
Is it a case of better the Devil you know than the one you don’t ?
Is Einstein right when he wrote:
” We can’t solve to-days problems with the mentality that created them.” ?
Do we HEAR the message of John F. Kennedy, when he said :
” Change is the Law of Life.
and those who look only at the past or present – are certain to miss the FUTURE .” ?
THINK time Hungary – those of us that are of voting age.
Don’t be EMOTIONAL.

Hungarians have got to get there heads in the right place preparing themselves sooner than later, that under Orban we are going deeper into a Dictatorship, and that the European Union question, there “Tolerance” – there “Patience” – the name Orban has defamed and insulted the European Union, and all “other” member country’s.
Wouldn’t bet on the EU punishing all Hungarians for decisions and actions of the present government, while the latter understands that any potential Huxit would produce much resistance, especially if working age & empowered Hungarians are compelled to return in numbers from elsewhere in the EU (see Brexit).
Further, many centrist and working age, including elites and civil society, need to look at Poland and Serbia (at least in Belgrade) where people do take an interest in their society and politics, with action, but why not Hungarians?
Talented Hungarians have already been leaving the country in great numbers. There is no future for young people in Hungary which means there is no future for Hungary itself except for a grim existence living near or below poverty while slave labour is imported to work in battery factories.
