Hungary: Orban is rebuilding Budapest with a look to the past | Focus on Europe 

It was correct by your side to ask apology .. unlike the vid. I think you will get much more likes and positive comments if you represent the people with common sense instead of a political ideology; I keep the progressive ideology much more dangerous than the Nazism AND the Communism altogether and I think that the root of the progressive ideology has got something to do with the cultural Marxism. Once me, behind the Iron Wall had got a sense about the West as the land freedom, fairness, everything that is positive ..oh, one of them was the free speech, the right to express freely one's mind .. and I didn't know that the well-being and the cultural Marxist ideology and maybe other things altered the West so much. If somebody would tell me that there will be times when neo-marxist ideology will attack us from the west, I would laugh on such a nonsense claim. Next year we will have elections; hope that you do not intend to influence the voters one-sided.

Literally all Orbán has to do is give the villages firewood and they vote for him.

On the other, what will make this election different from any of the previous one? Maybe this time the opposition will actually work together, just maybe.

"because they rebuilt Warsaw exactly as it had been before 1944" not really, Warsaw is a concrete jungle

@@uioplkhj I mean the downtown

It's actually ironically true what you're saying. And you don't even know it. In West Germany, people were distanced from Germany's past and, as a result, had fewer fascists come 1990. Meanwhile, in Poland and especially East Germany, under the Soviet Union, people were left to retain their aesthetics, including Wehrmacht uniforms. And as a result, there are far more neo-fascists and anti-semites in Poland and Eastern Germany than in Western Germany today.

​@MrLaci0110 Yeah, there's growth. But it's still lower than in Israel (ironically), still lower than in Poland, still lower than in Hungary, still lower than In France, Ukraine, Russia, Greece, Belarus, Latvia, and much of the rest of Europe. And the growth of antisemitism in those countries is far greater than in Germany. The places with the highest rates of antisemitic crimes and antisemitic attitudes in Germany are in North-East Germany. Namely, the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, a former East-German state closer to Poland. Another highly anti-semitic town is Wunsiedel in upper Franconia, close to Czechia. And before you go ahead and accuse Germany too much about their history, don't forget that Hungary was just as guilty of antisemitism as Germany once was. Hungary was the first allies of Germany, long before Mussolini got involved. And many Hungarians served as guards at the camps in Poland.

To be fair they are not really historical buildings. Most were built late XIX, early XX century and were built to look old and historic but actually they were modern buildings. They were ~50 years old when they got damaged in ww2.

But new legislations took this from cities and now some random state office decides somewhere else (of course accordingly to the corrupt government and their family and friends). So meanwhile they are rebuilding buildings that haven't been existing for 80 years, they let existing (sometimes even in good shape) historical building to be destroyed for their greedy developer oligarch friends.
