Mass manipulation built on a scientific basis suffered a heavy defeat in Hungary on the day of the legislative election. Gondola asked questions to economics professor László Bogár.
- Professor, in the Hungarian election campaign directed from abroad, famous intellectuals, who in their time received great opportunities to assert themselves from Viktor Orbán, unexpectedly lined up behind Gyurcsány's politics of lies. After their moral nullification, will reality present them with the bill now?...
... - The structure of Hungarian society has been showing the same pathological patterns for more than a century now, and so far no system has been able to fundamentally change this. The ultimate cause of these pathological patterns is the plundering function of this "invisible" global power superstructure , the fact that this "sovereignty-master" is only willing and able to integrate the indispensable top twenty percent of Hungarian society, leaving the bottom 80% of historical losers to their fate. through. The deepest conflicts in the Hungarian political space are therefore caused by the inadmissibility of this situation, the fact that individual rival elite groups can only blame each other's governance for the intractability of the situation, because the system itself is taboo, thus untouchable, and the global embeddedness of this system is even more taboo. But Viktor Orbán was able to become a global political factor precisely because he was able to break out of this blockade of the global discourse space and made this "inoperability" talkable, what's more, he is determined to carry out his system correction strategy. And since the opposition rival ruling groups have no alternative vision and feasible strategy in the field of unavoidable system correction, they hope to achieve their victory only by destructively discrediting the strategy of system correction. But, as their current spectacular failure also indicates, for the losing majority, Viktor Orbán's concept and the strategy based on it are much more credible and safer than the opposition's unbacked set of promises. What your question is referring to only confirms István Bibó 's work "Distorted Hungarian Structure, Dead End Hungarian History", that the impossibility of naming things inevitably leads to the general intellectual and moral decline of the elites. All those you are referring to in your question are the decay products of this intellectual and moral decline, who must bear the consequences of their actions.

- The current leader of the extreme left and the extreme right now want to make a scapegoat out of the puppet figure they carved. Will there be enough wisdom in civil politics to remain silent on this issue, let the extremism itself carry out the character suicide?
- Given that it turned out that the apparent "unity" of the opposition was actually only temporarily held together by the spell of the hoped-for "booty", so failure will automatically blow up this false grand coalition. The whole process can only be interesting as a socio-psychological drama, in which these long-standing pathological patterns are shown again. Apart from observing it, I don't think we have any task in this regard, we can only be curious disaster tourists now.
A much more serious and deeper problem is that these sick patterns and this destructive strategy were not only an attractive perspective during the election for one and a half million people , but also a crucial identity-forming element. We should think very seriously about how to avoid such "Hungarians holding each other like two pistols" situations, which further destroy the already quite damaged and weak spiritual, moral and spiritual cohesion within Hungarian society. And we don't have a strategy for that yet.

- Budapest continues to struggle in the shackles of left-liberal cultural slander. How can the intellectual centers that can liberate the Hungarian capital be organized?
- The "Hungarian" capital was never Hungarian in any sense, at most "Hungarian" , as in the days of the March Youth (it's true, at that time it was simply called Pest). And perhaps there is no need to prove that the situation has only gotten worse since then. The reason can be traced back to the above-mentioned pathological social structure, the essence of which is that the "place holder" society of global power, i.e. the top 5% owns 80% of the material and symbolic goods, and the lower society of "niches" pushed out of their own history, which it accounts for 80% of the workforce, but only owns 5% of the assets. Between the two, the middle class of the intelligentsia running the country is "stressed", which of course is not "in the middle", but between the 80th and 95th percentiles. He is really in balance, because his number of employees and his share of assets are 15%. However, this is only the national average, but the situation is quite different in Budapest, because here the proportion of the global "placeholder" society is 20% compared to the national average of 5%, and the proportion of the intellectuals running the country is 30%. The proportion of the globalist proxy society and the intellectuals who serve it unabashedly is therefore 50% in the capital, while in the world of villages and small towns it is a maximum of 12%. There can and should be a strategy that radically transforms the flow of material and symbolic resources, and directs resources from the global collaborators rewarded with astronomical sums and enormous moral recognition to the village society that has kept the country alive since the Hunyadis, but we have too many illusions not much about the result. This people-nation, which has always been the most humiliated and rejected, which is also the ultimate pedestal of our entire existence as an eternal loser, has remained a loser after every turn. This fourth two-thirds victory, the main bearer of which is precisely this final sustaining pedestal, moreover, it will be even more the main basis of our survival during the new world war that is already underway, perhaps it deserves to finally understand the nation's sustaining power, and to recognize it as a globalist showcase and a liberal playground for the capital that lives on it up where your resources come from.
