If you want to see where anti-immigrant right-wing populism can go, go no farther than Hungary, which just approved a law giving the Hungarian government unprecedented powers to imprison political opponents.
Hungary enacted the “Stop Soros” legislation last week, named after Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros. The new legislation, authored by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, criminalizes “promoting and facilitating illegal migration,” thereby prohibiting people and organizations from assisting undocumented immigrants. This is so wide that the government might theoretically jail someone who gives illegal migrants food or joins a political event in support of their rights.
“The major goal of this legislation is to criminalize people who properly aid asylum seekers or foreigners,” argues the Hungarian Helsinki Committee in a news statement. “It threatens to imprison those who help the weak.”
The law was portrayed as a check on Soros, a Jewish Holocaust survivor who finances pro-democracy activities globally. Orbán accuses Soros (a favorite figure of the American right) of orchestrating a global migratory plan to destabilize Hungary. He often insults the millionaire in anti-Semitic overtones.

“We are battling a foreign foe. Orban slammed Soros in a trademark anti-Soros outburst in March.
The Stop Soros law is right-wing populism manifested: an elected government attacking core democratic rights, legitimized and popularized by assaults on vulnerable minorities. Americans should pay notice.
Prime Minister Orbán was elected in 2010 in a fair and democratic process. Since then, he’s made it his duty to keep his authority.
And he’s persuaded his loyalists to acquire independent media sites to stifle opposition and spread misinformation. He has publicly stated his desire to abolish “liberal democracy” and replace it with an undefined “Christian” system.
Hang him.
Why!
He’s trying to destabilize the world.
I agree with Elizabeth…..hang him
Same ~ hang him
Helping illegal immigrants and do your best to not only support but take part in breaking the law should be illegal.
Funny how the “journalist ” writing here calls Soros a holocaust survivor when he actually worked for the Nazis during the war. Jewish people can’t stand him as well.
It’s not a conspiracy theory he’s cause more trouble round the world and anybody else. Well done hungry
Absolutely 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I agree.
As an American I can absolutely assure you that George soros is most definitely NOT NOT NOT a favorite of the American RIGHT!!! Conservatives in America HATE this TRAITOR TO DEMOCRACY, leftists love him. Hungary is 100% right to do this. Not only do I support this decision, this is the second thing I’ve seen in recent days that make me want to apply for citizenship in this country!!
👏👏👏 Well said. From your friends in the UK. Soros is a cancer on the world.
My Guy; YESS hello Brit I have found the promise land of forums.😂Tears of joy
Hello from Wales 🏴 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
I feel like the internet has become a jail cell and this one forum is a tiny window to see out into the real world 🤣
BASED
We should make our own country/or move to Hungary 🇭🇺
Orban should rule the World!
Hang Soros as high as possible! Soros is satan’s servant.
Greetings to Orban and all Hungarians from Sweden!
Hang him. I will volunteer to pull the lever. Put Crooked Hillary Next to him and have the 2 most evil people in the world go the same time. Feed the poor with the money you get from a live pay for view for executions
Soros Rockefeller Rothschild basically anyone who goes to the Great #Bilderberg meeting. All corrupt. I say rid the world of them all. You have to kill the whole squid not just chop some tentacles off.
At this point I would gladly trade my own life if we could stop Soros and KILLER Klinton.
Remove him and his blood line from this planet.
I didn’t realize the future would look like the old days where the public cheered for execution and from what I read want to be the judge who takes life with their own hands. This fucking scares me, what happened to talking and democracy. How can we say we are better than chimps that we evolved from if we keep the practices of a savage animal. Tribe mentality, it is disgusting. Think for yourselves, Nazis and Gulag Prison guards were normal people who let hate and moral superiority take them whole till they were a person who could take a naked pregnant women out on the middle of the street and shoot her point blank so that everyone else got the message. Then you put them in a wheel borrow and dump them into the mass graves of other undesirables. Does anyone not see how much hatred we are pumping into the world. How can any sane person have hope and joy for the future of mankind when everyone wants someone to blame and a reason to kill.
Do you even know who Soros is or what he’s done?? I’m not saying he should be hanged but he should be locked up along with all his cronies ruining this world.
What about stoneing😏?
You’re probably Jewish
Democracy submits to differential population growth and immigration as a regulator over demographics and consequently political reconstitution of a country. It’s happened many times and destabilized many countries. From your behavioral disposition I can tell you are either Jewish or miscegenated. If you are not then you are lacking perspective and thus are probably not a very mature thinker.
George Soros the Devil with billions of dollars needs to be taken out to lunch and not brought back!! Paul is living proof that liberalism is a mental illness!!
Joe Blow Biden Is mentally ill
so why don’t we do the three pig lunchen and not see them any more!!
THE RIGHT DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THAT TRAITOR ,WE WANT HIM DEAD !!!
Soros is far left not far right. His agenda is to enrich himself. He once said that it was sometimes frightening to himself the realize that he was more powerful than Jesus Christ. He is a Satanist antichrist.
