Mihai and Eva live for 15 years in “Orbanistan”-a bitter joke that designates a country where democracy has slowly transformed into a centralized personal power, built on fear, propaganda and total control over the institutions: Viktor Orbán's country, reports the website everything all over, which presents the story to a 15 year ago.
“My children learn hatred at school, and we pay the price of destroyed democracy.” This is how Mihai, a Romanian established in Budapest in 2010, family life in a country in which freedom was gradually replaced with fear, and the state became the instrument of a single political will. He and his wife, Eva, left Romania with the hope of a quiet life in a safe and civilized country. After 15 years in Hungary of Viktor Orbán, I live the reality of a regime that emptied the content democracy: the Constitution is written and rewritten according to the interests of power, the press was bought, the schools transformed into areas of ideological influence, and the “free” choices no longer offer real alternatives. Today's Romania resembles a lot with Hungary in 2010, when Orbán came to power by a two -thirds. Many Hungarians then voted in hope. Today, most know: not all populist promises stop words. Some turn into regimes that can no longer be stopped, ”says Mihai, according to the quoted source.
“I met Mihai and his wife, Eva, 15 years after they moved to Budapest. They had left with a small child and the dream of a better life.” We came here in 2010. It was not planned. Initially we did not think about Hungary. But it seemed civilized, cheap, for children. ” Today, says Mihai, things are no longer so, ”reports the publication reporter.
“Some teachers teach nationalism”
Mihai and Eva have two boys, one of 15 and one of 6 years, students in state schools in Budapest, schools who, in Orbán regime, passed under the “oblique” of some foundations, some of them being under the umbrella of the Catholic Church. The Ministry of Education was abolished after the moment of 2010. The children of Mihai and Eve go to a school where, fortunately – says Mihai, the director is balanced and tries to flatten the extremist events. “But some teachers teach nationalism-they are spoken in class about” Transylvania, Hungarian land “, about hatred for emigrants or foreign. We have no ministry of education. We have churches that manage schools,” says Mihai, who believes that beyond nationalism that is taught in some classes, in education.
“All the time is fearing fear”
“The Fidesz regime follows the model of a autocrat leader. It needs constant an enemy. When it is not Soros, it is Brussels. When they are not migrants, it is the minority LGBTQ. According to him, the authorities have forbidden the LGBTQ parades by constitution, arguing that they “endanger the integrity of children and the healthy development of children.” They justify the prohibition from the fact that “Hungary is a pro-family country, in which everything is done for children's safety,” says Mihai. He, however, catalogs such actions as “propaganda and image stuff”, meant to serve “their own electorate who are around 2 million and some people, fides and fides,” he adds.
