There is nothing more terrifying than a celebrity with a lot of weight who knows nothing about politics, but includes it in everything.
Because there is no problem with subjective opinion, only if we try to set it as inherent truth. And if we have great influence, we use it not with responsibility, but for our own exclusive survival and interests. You could say mean.
It is well known that the Western world sanctions, discriminates, and promotes the idea of collective guilt, which, in turn, always creates the most terrible dictatorships, disguised as truth and liberalism.
I have learned one thing in politics, and that is that the most important thing is reality. And what is the difference between truth and reality? The truth is relative, we endow an event with a certain quality, but in reality there is no quality, good or bad, there is only an event.
Just as it is an event, i.e. a reality, that Russia attacked Ukraine, so the aggressor party is undoubtedly the big bear.
However, in this story, who and what they think should behave, what they should feel, is already some kind of personal emotional need, and in this way it cannot be connected to reality, only to a specific truth.
Alina Pash also seems to be pretty lost in herself, so much so that she proclaims her emotional needs as the only truth. At the Sziget festival. To his fans, from whom he simultaneously expects empathic understanding and spits in their faces.
More than gas.
During his performance, the rapper also showed video messages from Ukrainian youth, one of which said:
We, Ukrainians, will definitely win this war, and you, Hungarians, can go down in history as the only European country that supports evil, that supports Putin." - was announced at the concert.
But there were other bombed-out pictures of Mariupol, and even an individual performance, during which he tore up a photo on the European Stage of Viktor Orbán and Vladimir Putin shaking hands.
Pash also didn't like the fact that two consecutive Russian DJ duos, Phlegmatic Dogs and Volac , performed at the Party Arena, he previously said that he seriously considered canceling the island performance because of the Russian artists.
Otherwise, you could look at things the other way around, let's say that the Ukrainian government dragged Transcarpathian Hungarians for years, disabled them and attacked them wherever they could. However, the Hungarians, or indeed the Hungarian government, never discriminated against anyone just because they were Ukrainian. We have not started to apply the principle of collective guilt, not even now, when tens of thousands of Ukrainians have been crossing our borders every day for months, who can then start their lives anew with us after receiving all the help they can get.
As far as I know, anger, hatred, dragging each other down according to their origins are not the hallmarks of enlightened thinking. And especially not art. Where the majority is so proud of the boundless freedom of culture and art. Then it is worth standing up for these ideals even when something else might be better. We, on the other hand, have Sziget, which not only advertises acceptance through advertising, but also demonstrates it with force and actions.
