This was organized in 3 days after Péter Magyar (Tisza Party) has published a secret document that showed the following:
On Friday, Péter Magyar published a document prepared in 2021 on the conditions prevailing in child protection and the violence suffered by children placed there. The 47-page report states, among other things, that
staff are overworked,
one in seven children under their guardianship is a victim of abuse,
half of the guardians initiated police proceedings in 437 cases of sexual abuse involving children in their care, 224 guardians found that the cases were closed due to insufficient evidence,
the child protection guardians surveyed know of more than 3,300 abused children – this means that one-fifth of children in specialized care are abused, most often emotionally, psychologically, and physically,
235 guardians reported sexual abuse of children,
and 11 percent of guardians know that "a child under their guardianship has been sexually abused at their place of care." 324 children suffered this type of abuse while in specialized care.
The document concludes by mentioning that there is enormous latency in the field of child abuse. The document only "summarizes the attitudes, knowledge, and experiences of child protection professionals responsible for 15,807 children entrusted to the care of the state."
Also:
In the investigation at the Szőlő Street juvenile residential school, following Tuesday’s dramatic action, several people have now been arrested or are under investigation, including the acting director of the institution, Károly Kovács-Buna, who resigned on Monday. Earlier, the former director, Péter Pál Juhász, and his partner were already arrested; they are also suspected of human trafficking and forced labor. In addition, videos have emerged showing abuse that took place in the institution.
The government had previously lied about the case, claiming that “no minors were involved.”
>Péter Magyar published a document prepared in 2021 on the conditions prevailing in child protection and the violence suffered by children placed there.
That's... that's his name? That's like if a minister in Germany was named Hans Deutsche .
Hungary has been very multicultural since the 1200s, so it is to be expected. Countries with only a single prevailing culture don't have ethnic surnames because that is not a differentiating factor.
Eliminating elections would send the message that people haven't a voice anymore, which would likely trigger a revolt. In some cases is safer/easier for corrupt leaders to just fake a democracy than to straight eliminate it. If Russian propaganda isn't enough to skew preferences toward him (fake news + stupidity can do wonders) Orban will attempt for sure to tamper with elections, but I'm very skeptical about eliminating them. He's a piece of shit but he's not that stupid.
I think so.....Regardless of political stance, the energy in this protest demonstrates how deeply citizens care about the direction of their country and its governance.
It wasn't the location, it was a march from Deák Square to Buda Castle (Orban's office is there), and they crossed through the tunnel. Also police brutality/aggressive protests and political violence are not really things that happen in Hungary at all.
Is this a joke? I am sorry.. like i have no idea what news you have been reading, but mass killings are not something they would do. Not even assassinations. This is not Russia. Shocking, I know.
And he is not a full authoritarian, just a corrupted prick dancing on the edge between populism and - for some reason- Putin.
My best friend lives in Budapest, I'm treated as a honorary Hungarian every time I'm there.
Those guys even named a street after my family name, in the middle of Budapest, with the Danube on one end, overseeing Margit Sziget. Considering this, good and beautiful people of Hungary still stands.
As a rather pessimistic person, I cannot see Orbán giving up on power. Nevertheless, I will do the very minimum and vote against Orbán and my whole family will do the same (just like we did last time...)
Bro posted the worst picture imaginable. /s I screenshotted another one from the live stream but just found out that you can't post images in comments here:(
Without any sort of constructive thought, it's pure demoralising. Whenever the opposition embraced this kind off negativity, it always hepled Orbán stay in power.
Bro orbán doesn't have as much power as putin or erdogan. Hungary is officially still a democracy, it's part of the EU and NATO. Orbán can't just do anything he wants without consequences like his daddy putin.
What consequences did he face last time? Like, you know, when they started tearing up and burning ballots from abroad that did not have the "right" vote in them?
The sad truth is, the EU gives zero fucks. They knew all the illegal shit he did last time and did nothing. Why would it be different this time?
Its like this when discussing the Ukraine war as well. Redditors have this weird thing where they only want to hear talking points that are pro their "side".
Do you really believe elections will be free? Do you really believe Putin and Trump will let their lapdog go? You really think they won't meddle in the elections? That's naivety at its best.
Yeah, I definitely would not call any election where a party with 40% support gets a two-third majority, fair.
Seriously?
April 12th, though it's not official yet (as in the president hasn't set the date), even though everyone - including Orbán - has been talking about April 12th.
Let’s unite again the Eastern Europe against the ru locus swarms from the East and for a strong eastern alliance within EU! Getting rid of Orban is a first step!
Biggest lol of the century. Tisza is aligned with Orbán's view of illegal immigration and keeping the southern fence as well. But unlike Orbán they won't invite migrants from Vietnam and the Philippines by the thousands to work in the chinese run factories.
Fun fact: One of Orbán's son became a billionaire because they run the agency that invites migrants into Hungary.
Yeah, no. These people are protesting against children being raped by pedos that get saved by fidesz every time. People want orbán to fall because this isn't tolerable. But I guess that's okay for you. It's toxic people like you that make this sub so bad and ruin the mood.
My only problem with TISZA is this :"Tisza advocates for following EU migration rules but opposes mandatory quotas" ...it sounds sketchy ..cause EU migration is an absolute disaster.. On paper they seem to align with Fidesz when it comes to migration but at the same time they advocate for following EU migration rules ? As to legal migration from ASIA ..it isn't that bad ..honestly. Very few people know this, but for example Poland especially Warsaw has a ton of Vietnamese people. They are all hard working amazing people. Can't say a single bad thing about them. All legally moved to Poland in the early 90's. Legal migration that is well thought out makes a lot of sense.
Suicidal empathy. They have all the proof they need right in front of their eyes but they refuse to take it for what it is = mass replacement. UK has fallen, France has fallen, Germany has fallen. Sweden is f* . Denmark managed to get back on the right track so they might survive. Spain is about to fall. Only Hungary and Poland still standing. I understand Orban with his authoritarian style is far from being perfect….but what’s the alternative? An EU backed lefty candidate who ho is going to align with Von der Layen ?

Front rows, you can actually see the same faces👀👀👀
The protest is called "Protest in support of children and against Orbán's lies."

You guys should really step up the naming game for these protests.
>Péter Magyar published a document prepared in 2021 on the conditions prevailing in child protection and the violence suffered by children placed there.
That's... that's his name? That's like if a minister in Germany was named Hans Deutsche .
Every single time I (or someone else) mention his name, there always be at least 1 comment on his name :D
Names based on ethnicity is common in Hungary and the surrounding countries as well.
etc.
I can't tell if that's peak racism or the opposite, damn.
Hungary has been very multicultural since the 1200s, so it is to be expected. Countries with only a single prevailing culture don't have ethnic surnames because that is not a differentiating factor.
Török (Turkish) and Orosz (Russian) as well, less common though
Magyar is a common surname.
Pierre Mendès France says hi.
Was going to say General French: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_French%2C_1st_Earl_of_Ypres but he was English.
Are they in a tunnel?
It's the tunnel under the Buda Castle, so yeah.
https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budai_V%C3%A1ralag%C3%BAt
Cool, must have missed it when I was there. I'll come back once "the Victator" has been voted out.
You still believe there will be another vote ?
I don't believe, I know. We aren't Russia or Belarus or North Korea.
Never take voting for granted. Right now, Democracy everywhere is under siege.
I know what I'm talking about. I know foreigners like to make us look like we are a dictatorship but that's simply not true.
Orbán doesn't have that kind of control over the army like Erdogan and Putin.
And they don't have the manpower either.
Edit:
Read more here about election:

Man, it's so funny seeing someone else be the target of European racism, other than us.
Free and fair? Must be why so many people are protesting.
Who said that it is free and fair?
When people vote for someone you don’t like, it means democracy is under siege? 😆
You sound like a tyrant. Democracy works both ways.
Hopefully you are right!
Eliminating elections would send the message that people haven't a voice anymore, which would likely trigger a revolt. In some cases is safer/easier for corrupt leaders to just fake a democracy than to straight eliminate it. If Russian propaganda isn't enough to skew preferences toward him (fake news + stupidity can do wonders) Orban will attempt for sure to tamper with elections, but I'm very skeptical about eliminating them. He's a piece of shit but he's not that stupid.
…didn’t Top Gear drive cars through there?
Yeah usually it's for car and foot traffic
I think so.....Regardless of political stance, the energy in this protest demonstrates how deeply citizens care about the direction of their country and its governance.
Pretty brave to do a protest against an authoritarian on a location where they could trap and murder you by barely even lifting a finger
It wasn't the location, it was a march from Deák Square to Buda Castle (Orban's office is there), and they crossed through the tunnel. Also police brutality/aggressive protests and political violence are not really things that happen in Hungary at all.
Is this a joke? I am sorry.. like i have no idea what news you have been reading, but mass killings are not something they would do. Not even assassinations. This is not Russia. Shocking, I know.
And he is not a full authoritarian, just a corrupted prick dancing on the edge between populism and - for some reason- Putin.
I suspect that's the point.
In case if he decides to bomb opposition
That or someone’s colon.
Yeah.
I hope that the good and beautiful people of Hungary will vote for a change in april.
As a not so good and kinda mid looking person of Hungary I really fucking hope that too
My best friend lives in Budapest, I'm treated as a honorary Hungarian every time I'm there.
Those guys even named a street after my family name, in the middle of Budapest, with the Danube on one end, overseeing Margit Sziget. Considering this, good and beautiful people of Hungary still stands.
Beauty and morals are in the heart. Try to resist the ugliness of selfishness, and you too are good and beautiful.
Beautiful enough to get me on the front page of fashion magazines?
As a rather pessimistic person, I cannot see Orbán giving up on power. Nevertheless, I will do the very minimum and vote against Orbán and my whole family will do the same (just like we did last time...)
They definetely will. Im worried 2020 Belarus might repeat tho
Great! Keep it up! Support from Bulgaria EU bros!
That shit looks like something from the movie V for vendeta
Nah that's from HxH
Break your chains brothers
Feels like every Square in Europe eventually Doubles as a Protest stage History repeating, Just louder and with Better signs.
Good job Hungary! ❤️
Bro posted the worst picture imaginable. /s I screenshotted another one from the live stream but just found out that you can't post images in comments here:(
The only effective anti orban protest is voting him out next year
[ Removed by Reddit ]
He will commit electoral fraud and win.
It's stupid to think anyone could vote him out. Did it work in Venezuela, Russia, Belarus, etc.? No. Neither will work in Hungary.
You're always here demoralizing people.
I'm speaking the truth. The truth people don't want to hear.
Hungary stopped being a democracy long ago and it's ridiculous to pretend otherwise.
Without any sort of constructive thought, it's pure demoralising. Whenever the opposition embraced this kind off negativity, it always hepled Orbán stay in power.
If I'm right (and I genuinely hope I'm wrong) you will have to apologize to me after April 12.
I knew you were here demoralizing. ☺️
I knew you were some poor fool, who believes she lives in a democracy 😅
Bro orbán doesn't have as much power as putin or erdogan. Hungary is officially still a democracy, it's part of the EU and NATO. Orbán can't just do anything he wants without consequences like his daddy putin.

The sad truth is, the EU gives zero fucks. They knew all the illegal shit he did last time and did nothing. Why would it be different this time?
They hated him because he spoke the truth
I know right? People here are so delusional, I don't know whether to pity them or laugh at their naivety.
Its like this when discussing the Ukraine war as well. Redditors have this weird thing where they only want to hear talking points that are pro their "side".
Okay, then just continue being pessimists. This is one reason why I hate this sub.
Oh folks should just not try then? Bot ass logic.
Neither of those are similar to Hungary. Elections are not fair, but still free.
Do you really believe elections will be free? Do you really believe Putin and Trump will let their lapdog go? You really think they won't meddle in the elections? That's naivety at its best.
Yeah, I definitely would not call any election where a party with 40% support gets a two-third majority, fair.
So you couldn't comprehend one single line of text. Elections are not fair, but still free.
No, they aren't. Votes from abroad have literally been torn up and burned if they didn't have the "right" vote.
Does that sound free to you??
That's the "not fair" part. Do you even know the definitions..? Doesnt look like it at all.
Oh boy, you are hopeless 😅
Alright then, keep defending that shitty country and their shitty government.
They're not defending the government, we just don't like this constant pessimism. Do you hate Hungarians too or something?
Don't feed the troll. That person hasn't said a constructive thing ever. They're just here demoralizing. Orbán would be proud.
Get rid of this russian puppet. Keeping fingers crossed for Hungary.
seems like a literal underground movement /s
Whoa. Powerful image!
Hyper(Loop) Protesting
Live stream: https://www.youtube.com/live/q6TR4ShFsIA?si=i24lpfedO_O1aG36
Are they in the metro system?
No in a tunnel under the Buda castle.
Tunnel that goes through the Castle Hill (Buda side of Budapest).
Hungary has to fucking act up soon!
Interesting choice in venue
Victor Orban the real coward wont even get out and greet his population
He didn't get a counter protest to happen this time at the same time as the real protest, did he?
No, he was far away from the capital, giving a speech in a small town’s sports hall that only his registered supporters were allowed to attend.
Good luck guys!
Nice!!
Way to go!
For people who are wondering, it was raining that day.
Victor will claim voter fraud and Trump will support him. I'm sorry, I don't think it will happen without a fight.
I hope he's soon being renamed to Loser Orbán, that's for sure.
Orban is a huge Putin fanboy. I don't expect him to leave peacefully.
The whole EU will celebrate when we’re rid of Orban, stay strong and vote for change!
I'm hungarian but idk when I need to vote for him to get kicked out... lehet egy másik magyar tud segíteni azzal?
Seriously? April 12th, though it's not official yet (as in the president hasn't set the date), even though everyone - including Orbán - has been talking about April 12th.
F*king Orban!
Trump: "Fake news!"
What a great image. Wish it had more pixels though.
Hunter X Hunter tryouts.
Is that the hunter exam or something
13th district?
I hope the world revolts against all tge shit leaders like sstrump,orban,xi,lukashenko,...
I have read enough stories about fatal crowd crushes to never put myself in a situation like this. These people are brave!
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=WGKBBCR0jn4&si=dZX3SeAPW8XbOreq
Let’s unite again the Eastern Europe against the ru locus swarms from the East and for a strong eastern alliance within EU! Getting rid of Orban is a first step!
Murino
Why are they anti Victor Orban ?
Finally people woke up 🙏
Finally? People started waking up last February, and more and more are joining. This is just the last occasion not the first one
[deleted]
That’s what “last February” means
Protests have been prettty regular for most of this year, thankfully.
probably it’s not enough just make protest? 🤔because Orban is still in parliament and his ruzzian preferences are progressing.
good job against the fascist Orban, but it's not safe to protest in a tunnel, be careful guys
Are they still allowed to protest? Weak Mr. Victor, weak...
They did ban it during the summer. 400 thousand people did not give a shit.
Some of you really need that "/s".
A külföldiek nem szavaznak, csókolom.
Well, maybe Orban's had enough pilfering and would be happy enough to retire on his megayacht in the Adriatic.
I can't see this succeeding unless Orban flat-out orders the vote to not be rigged in his favor anymore.
That makes me itch to publish here pictures from Israel, protesting Bibi and his right-wing racist government.
What percentage of the country's population is shown here?
They should just throw some ziklon-b pellets in there

A Kung Lao migrikkel nincs baj, más nép a problémás
Are you living in Hungary? No? Fuck off with your bs then. Move here if you like that shit so much.
My fellow countrymans wants them because Budapest is too safe and boring, we want some action!
Yeah too safe…definitely.
[removed]
Seems so. These are the "I am so good and tolerant and anyone not with me is hitler"
Yeah, no. These people are protesting against children being raped by pedos that get saved by fidesz every time. People want orbán to fall because this isn't tolerable. But I guess that's okay for you. It's toxic people like you that make this sub so bad and ruin the mood.

They are a left globalist party cosplaying as centrists or centre-right, otherwise they would have no chance to win.

Well people here literally saying they hate Orban so much they would even vote for a monkey than him, weird.
Stop spitting propaganda please.
You are brainwashed bud. Since when is EURO STAT DATA propaganda ? you don't even know what you are talking about.
Wow 3453 people! Crazy ! There must be a revolution down there.
Wow 746 karma people! Crazy! This must be a real person's opinion!
Make me a sandwich
And seconds after the photo was taken, ricin gas flooded the tunnel.
/s for those to stupid to realize
protesters are self-containing themselves in a safe-from-normal-people environment, all that is left to do is to lay down a brick wall in the exit
A russian shill lmao
What are the chances that tunnel could be flooded with some nerve gas, ultimately eliminating all dissidents?
Zero.
