To American reactionaries, Viktor Orban is a hero, and Budapest is the new Jerusalem. Hungary was the first place wokeness went to die. It is a role model.
The problem is that those same reactionaries insist that China is an existential threat to America, and Orban is China’s best friend in Europe. Xi was there a few days ago. He received an extremely warm welcome.
You would think the closeness of the China-Hungary relationship would cause the reactionaries to rethink their position on Orban, or, at least, create some embarrassment. Not at all! They just ignore anything that conflicts with their narrative and change the subject.
