It’s actually terrifying that the people in charge think this way. This kind of religious zealotry and utter hatred of any who don’t share their insanity is a massive step backward to the Middle Ages. It’s in everything they do and say, every attitude and every act.

Hungary's Viktor Orbán concedes defeat, ending 16 years in power Hungarian voters turned out in the greatest numbers since the 1990s to turn away from Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's right-wing populist Fidesz party, putting an end to Orbán's 16 years in power.
