"What can I deny? I will not honor those who would throw us onto the IFA plateau - that is, our corpses -, hang us and hate us all ab ovo". Written by Kristóf Trombitás.
Someday, I would really like to know from some of our famous and well-loved actors what the hell is wrong with them with the majority society, with their Hungarianness, and with everything related to political forces connected to the defense of traditional values? And of course, here I could expand the circle all the way to the United States, where before the 2016 presidential election, there was a real bidding war among dollar millionaires in Hollywood, which of them will emigrate first if Donald Trump wins the presidential election. (Fun fact: none of them did that.)
For some reason, a significant part of these people - regardless of whether they work in the entertainment industry of any country - have a hard-wired aversion to everything right-wing. Of course, I have talked about this countless times, but the interview of actor Zsolt Nagy the other day made me think again. I don't know if they read it, but this was the article in which Nagy complained that if and when he was asked abroad where he came from, he was ashamed to say that he was from Hungary.
A normal person simply doesn't think like that, and if they do, they are very roasting, which they don't reveal to the public under any circumstances. Not only did it not occur to me during the Gyurcsány governments, but I would have been confused if someone connected his Hungarianness with the reigning government.
However, Uncle Fletó had something to be proud of, and in their place it would have been normal to feel ashamed - for them. For those who participated in it.
If, I put it that way, in 2007 he would have admitted, say, in Austria, that he was Hungarian, that behavior cannot be disputed. The mentally ill. Just like Zsolt Nagy, to whom, however, I will not say this, because a person who is mentally ill, on the one hand, does not know that what he is doing is bad, on the other hand, he can be excused from the consequences of his actions. And I don't think that Zsolt Nagy and all the other comedians at the fair don't know exactly what they're doing. All those who, especially since 2010 and in recent years, have found within themselves a huge fear of public life.
And of course, the adequate answer in this case is, why are you coming home? According to them, nothing binds you here, you hate the existing system, you obviously look down on the majority of Hungarian society and cannot stand it, since the support of Viktor Orbán is by far the majority.
Believe me, personally I would be the happiest, dear artist Nagy, and the others, the other Nagy, the Ervin, the Lengyel, the noÁr and so on, no, exactly and they all say the same thing, at the same time, like Gyurcsány, if they would get the hell out of my country. Your master said you could leave, didn't he? There's just one huge problem: nobody abroad needs them. A significant number of Hungarian artists - especially those who believe themselves to be artists - could at most be pallet kickers in Western Europe, as, for example, Árpád Sárosdiné Schilling and his wife are. (I stole Sárosdine from Jeszy, a wonderful name.)
I'll say it quickly: I don't want you to misunderstand. A pallet kicker, especially a decent manual worker, does an extremely respectable job. In the vast majority of cases, I think of them as much more than a significant number of intellectuals who have been intoxicated for decades by the smell of their own farts.

What can I deny? I will not honor those who would throw us onto the IFA plateau - that is, our corpses -, hang us and hate us all ab ovo. I'm glad they're screwed and I hope they never pollute the air in my country again. Unfortunately, they, as well as others, could easily be at home if this word means something to them, after all, no one persecutes even the vilest haters here. Alföldi organizes just as freely as he did 10 years ago, and all the others do not have to worry about being disadvantaged because of his public activities. In an ideal world, this would probably be fine, but allow me the opinion that at least they can't laugh in our faces on our own plates.
Like Bori Péterfy, who says that he didn't come to Tusványos for the darkness, they just play music. (…) Is there serious interest in Péterfy Bori in Transylvania, Székelyföld? Okay, I guess that doesn't bother me in itself. Then there must be an event organizer whose business it is to invite them. Well, on it!
But - and I say this many times - those who are sworn, breathless enemies of everything that characterizes the current course should not be given roles in state-supported films, such as noÁr, or should not be invited to one of the biggest festivals of Hungarians across the border, the highlight of which is Viktor Orbán's speech . As much as they talk about the dictatorship, at least they should feel this damn oppression so much that if they are so enemies of the state, then we don't lick them in return.
And of course, in the end, these naysayers are irrelevant, plain political activists who use their otherwise existing popularity to achieve left-wing goals – what a surprise. Insignificant, but not because of their fame. Really, that's all: at least we don't finance them.
