How will immigration make Europe more and better, and how will we live with the new arrivals? Would it be necessary to banish companies from the market of political opinions? Should multinational companies that have escaped national jurisdiction be brought back under democratic control? - these questions were discussed in the This is the question - XXI. in the program "Actual Events of the 19th Century Cultural War".
In the program, historian Mária Schmidt, lawyer András Schiffer, member of parliament L. Simon László and head of department of the Central European University Szabolcs Pogonyi talked with host István Gulyás about how migration and the growing appearance of Islam in Europe put women's rights in brackets. It was also discussed why large American corporations are slowly feeling their duty to play the role of the state, or to campaign for racial, gender and political issues that fit the progressive agenda.
The participants explored how immigration is transforming Europe. Mária Schmidt, for example, said that since the receiving societies have not thought through the consequences of migration, they do not even have integration strategies.
The receiving countries have not even decided whether it is their task to integrate the arrivals at all, or to leave them in a segregated situation.

Another part of the program deals with the influence of global companies on global opinion formation.

Big companies use these trendy ideologies with propagandistic methods for economic gain, so cultural and economic strands are intertwined in the issue.
According to L. Simon László, they have not only achieved self-censorship in social public discourse, but fear also pervades it.
Those who openly criticize liberal ideology must face the fact that they are existentially disabled.
For example, natural scientists no longer dare to speak out on many issues in their own field, because they no longer feel safe either.
András Schiffer , large multinational companies are chasing extra profit as before. The biggest obstacle to achieving this is people's independent, natural identity, which is why they try to replace it with consumer identities linked to their company, which is about someone being a fan of a particular product or brand.
According to the participants of the program, the question is whether multinational companies want to achieve cultural changes in order to increase profits, or vice versa, the goal of increasing profits is to achieve the greatest possible cultural changes.
