talkpoliticsHungary’s controversial anti-LGBT law goes into effect despite EU warnings:
A new law that bans the dissemination of content in schools deemed to promote homosexuality and gender change went into effect Wednesday despite a warning from Europe’s top rights watchdog that the law risks discrimination against LGBT people.
Ehm... "the law is necessary to ensure that the sexual education of children under 18 is the sole domain of parents.".... Oh we're OK then!
But srsly. It is virtually impossible to throw Hungary out of the EU. But, they can stop his EU funds and make life very difficult for the Hungarians. However, Germany is making a bit of cash from Hungary so has little interest in kicking him out. See the Realpolitik here?
If Hungary left the EU, Vlad would be over the Moon, so the people of Hungary wouldn't allow it, at the expense of Orban of course. Currently he's on a power trip and I suspect will become even more of a pain to the EU than before. What he's really after here is control of the education curriculum, so he can use it as a propaganda machine. Learning from the Chinese he is.
Oh, and Poland has been doing something similar for, like, ages now.
"Just face it, West Europe and East Europe have different values", one EMP argued. Yeah. "Family" vs "Queer". That's how it's being viewed around here. And we're supposed to be livingi in the 21st century. Go figure.
