Mission Accomplished! LGBTQ Lobby’s “Humiliate Hungary” March Gets Red Carpet in Budapest

Anti-Pride protesters are blocked in by police on Freedom Bridge.

 

What first impressions often lack in measured consideration, they make up for it in poetry. And that is how our reporting from the Pride Budapest counter-demonstration will proceed. Mixing today with a handful of angry people trying to stem the floodgates of a ruthless international gender-ideology, while watching our bastions of national identity not so much be demolished, but defiled and ridiculed. 

Our report should be taken only as a case study, as we could not cover all the events, all the key locations. In a nutshell, however, today’s events could be summed up as follows: the LGBTQ international lobby has managed to rub their Pride event in Hungarians’ noses, despite all the warnings from our Prime Minister, all the promises of the Hungarian right, all the legislative changes and posturing from our patriotic opinion-makers. They wanted to show who is boss in Hungary, and, at least today, they did.

The day started with a small prayer for families organized by CitizenGO Magyarország, a Roman Catholic group that opposes gender-ideology with Christian values. One of their speakers really got off message with a gay-bashing religious fundamentalist-type speech instead of focusing on the Pride march and its underlying ideology. The other speaker though was more focused on the message of the Gospel and the Church, and better for it. After the introduction, the fifty or so Christians present went on to form a line and pray the Catholic Rosary. That was beautiful and uplifting.

As the time for the Pride march at 3pm approached, small counter-demonstrations have popped up at certain points along the official route. The main ones, organized by Hungary’s nationalist party, Our Homeland (Mi Hazánk), were properly licensed by the police and given permit to set up camp alongside the official route of the LGBTQ march. Their plan was to form a roadblock against the marchers. It was not to be. Police have blocked in the fifty or so counter-demonstrators, preventing access to the river bank where they were previously licensed by the authorities to have access. The police have sent a female officer to deliver the news to the counter-demonstrators, but when asked about the legal basis of such a radical change of plans by Előd Novák MP, vice-president of Our Homeland, she could only deliver some incoherent and totally unconvincing semi-explanation. In a nutshell, “there are fifty of you here, there is thousands of them. Tough luck, make a complaint if you wish.” And that was the end of it.

Looking at the few counter-protesters, surely they were not the privileged ones of the Hungarian oh-so-mighty conservative elite. A few strong words, some not-so-squared-off comments at gays, a little bit of “effin” at the police, but they were there, standing up for what they strongly believe, albeit visibly out of their comfort zone. Upset but peaceful and proud. The type of riffraff, one should imagine, that used to hung out with magic rabbis in ancient Judea hoping for a miracle.

But where were Hungary’s famous, indefatigable conservative protectors of national sovereignty and Christian values, when a foreign-imported gender cult was desecrating our streets, our squares that only a couple of generations before witnessed some of our most heroic struggles for freedom? Where were the “presentable” ones, who are endlessly touring TV studios declaring that we will not give an inch? Are they perhaps the ones with too much to lose?

Before asking the demonstrators to disperse, with a measure of bitterness in his voice, Előd Novák has pointed out that the “fight club” that Viktor Orbán has rallied into action against woke only a few weeks ago, had stayed away today. And indeed, they did. After all, they cannot be seen with the unsophisticated right-wing plebs that congregate at Our Homeland demos, right? Instead, they will sit it out venting their anger in anonymous comment sections online.

Today the Trans- and LGBTQ-lobby was allowed to own our streets with a last-minute nudge from our Constitutional Court that annulled the earlier police ban on the Pride march, as well as with a little help from the police itself, who have swept aside any licensed or unlicensed protest that could have inconvenienced the victorious gender-lobby. Those who have made a show of force were foreign activists, George Soros funded NGOs, the “Budapest-cafe”, uber-frustrated over the continuous electoral success of Viktor Orbán’s FIDESZ,  and woke foreign diplomats sent in by their governments to rub their sexuality under the unwashed Hungarians’ noses while hoisting pride flags in their embassies. Ambassadors of countries with no borders, no morals, no common national ethos, and thus no future. Coming from societies where serious attacks on gays and lesbians, in contrast with Hungary, happen on a daily basis. Hypocrites of the first order.

It should be clear by now that no constitutional amendments or legal changes will be able to prevent such blatant provocations by the woke gender-lobby, such as the gay pride event unless ordinary citizens will garner their courage to reclaim their own streets. And let us be clear here, there is no such thing as “LGBTQ community”, as they constantly try to make us believe. A community is a group of people held together with common values and a shared cultural, historic identity. LGBTQ is an ideological cult and a political interest group, which both heterosexuals and some homosexuals join out of vested interest, sometimes out of fear. Armed with gender ideology, they try to distort social and political processes in their own interests, in a direction that allows them to gain undeserved advantages. These are advantages that they would not be able to obtain through value-creation, work that enriches and strengthens society as a whole. The LGBTQ “community” is in fact a political and ideological cartel that, under the guise of representing the interests of sexual minorities, is able to gain positions of power with which a narrow elite can gain control over vast segments of society, as well as corporate entities.

Make no mistake, today’s Pride Parade in Budapest was a punitive crusade by the left’s soldiers against renitent conservative Hungary that refuses to bow to progressive values and their nihilistic vision of supra-national societies. This was a show of force by those presiding over the ashes of former Western-European democracies. They will celebrate winning a battle tonight over the majority of Hungarians who disapprove of such ostentatious in-your-face propagation of gender ideology in their country. Such victories for the left could eventually end up eroding the authority of the government and that of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, while playing into the hands of Germany’s off-the-shelf narcissistic puppet PM-in-waiting, Péter Magyar.

One talking to foreign journalist or opinion-makers will invariably realize that the world is watching us. Western-European conservatives and national forces in particular look up to us as an example of success over the global woke movement, as the antidote to the poison of authoritarian and manipulative progressive ideologies such as gender, multiculturalism or the fake climate cult. Hungary cannot afford another show of weakness such as the one today. The handful of brave, yet woefully unprepared counter-demonstrators could not effectively speak for us either.

There is little doubt that Hungary will pick itself up from this day of humiliation and send an answer that will reverberate across Europe. But the fusion of conservative values with the comfort zone of a new petty bourgeoisie is increasingly proving itself to be a liability playing into the hands of an aggressive and vocal left. Today’s events should be a wake-up call for the majority of apathetic Hungarians: radical reforms are needed, while ordinary patriotic citizens must rethink the way they react to threats to their way of life. Hungary is all theirs to lose.
