Now go all in! Everyone apologize! But right away. Then resign! About everything. Referendum on everything! About the constitution. On the election of the President of the Republic. Then about the person of the President of the Republic. About his authority. About the right to life. About the right to die. Who can give life, who can take life. Go for it!
Every president of the republic, every prime minister should apologize! All elected representatives should resign and apologize! Hungary should give up its borders and sovereignty, give up Russian oil and gas! Everyone should give up meat, milk and fossil energy! Apologize to the Earth! Everyone should apologize for the conquest, the adventures, the ninth, the tenth, the master's fee!
Get down on your knees and beg for forgiveness for our entire history! For the gendarmerie firing, red and white terror, Holocaust, Gulag.
Go for it!
Now a referendum on the dog tree! There shouldn't be an Olympics, there shouldn't be a National Football Championship, demolish all stadiums! Referendum that the House of Music is ugly until a certain Krúbi performs in it! A national referendum on whether Z. Botond's wife is an old whore! Direct democracy! Azariah for president! In a video message. Referendum on whether Gergely Péterfy and his wife, as the Hungarian Republic of Umbria, can enter the Eurovision Song Contest instead of Hungary! Referendum on whether the Hungarian-Serbian Republic of Baranyai-Baja led by Béla Linder can take Hungary's place in the UN! The referendum on the merits of leader Pál Prónay is legitimate. According to the admirers of the head of state of Lajtabánság, he is actually the Hungarian head of state, so any other attempt to fill the post is illegitimate. That's right!
Now go all in!
You think I'm joking. Of course not. Let's take a look at the referendum initiatives that took place last year.
Here is a request submitted by a lady that if a public holiday falls on a weekend, the next working day should become a public holiday. A serious question to consider. Shall we vote on it? More importantly, should there be a referendum on whether we have the right to use cash. The self-service restaurant I bring my food from only accepts cash. It's annoying when you don't have a few thousand. However, it is completely unacceptable, i.e. against the Basic Law, if cash is not accepted. I don't remember if I've been in this situation before, but whatever. Shall we vote on it? There are several referendum initiatives on whether it is possible to create industrial facilities on agricultural land. Some specifically mention that the ban only applies to the production of chemical batteries. Married?
Others initiate a referendum to maximize land ownership. There are those who want a referendum on whether to leave NATO. So what? There were some hiccups at the entrance, because the required 50 percent participation was not met. I mean? Couldn't we have entered? Then why quit? Because we're in it, up to our necks.
My favorite is this one:
"Do you agree that the position of minister responsible for public education should not be filled by the middle cross of the Order of Merit of the Hungarian Republic, a retired police colonel with a star?"
It didn't take me long to wonder who the presenter could have in mind. Surely it will be Mr. Pintér Sándor! And really. It's a shame that the idea is not new, in 1947 such a crucial but personalized paragraph was used in the electoral law. Then the lawyers of Rákosi and Rajk came up with the idea that the person who was the representative candidate of the ruling party in 1935 could not run in the elections. Everyone knew that it was about Dezső Sulyok, the leader of the opposition, and the street named the legislation "Lex Sulyok". Nothing new under the sun.
Last year, there were many referendum initiatives dealing with education. Most of the sensible proposals just don't require a referendum. For example, not raising teachers' salaries by 50 percent. Everyone knows it has to be done. I would be a teacher myself, it's true that my job is to train teachers - so it's a little bit my fault that the Danube is overflowing - and of course I know that people will never be satisfied with this career.
Because there is no way to pay for the profession they undertook for the sake of our children. And anyone whose "salary" takes up one hundred percent of their mental and moral capacities has also set their head on a hopelessly wrong path. Go for a good OKJ masonry or tiling course! It will be better for everyone. The fact that the salary of the teachers' teachers - despite Covid and inflation - did not increase by a single forint is perhaps not the Colonel-in-Chief's fault, but certainly someone else's! If you don't have a shirt, don't wear it. It wouldn't be a problem if the entire process of education - from kindergarten to university - belonged to a ministry, so that the lines would be more clearly defined.
Someone initiates a referendum on the support of Sweden joining NATO. If you go all in, go all in! I calm the person down. Sweden will join NATO.
The Hungarian parliament approves it, and happiness will be complete. I can only hope that XVI. King Gustav Adolf of Sweden will not lead troops against Russia, as his famous predecessor, XII. Charles. I really liked that Károly, unfortunately he suffered one of the biggest military defeats in world history at Poltava. His whole army went there, he hung out in Turkey with a few people. But from there he galloped home to Stockholm incognito, stopping in Pest as well. A beautiful relief on the corner of Váci utca commemorates the romantic horse adventure. If I were Viktor Orbán's adviser, I would have taken the Swedish Prime Minister there on Friday for a friendly chat. Of course, the Gripens are also important.
I would take the American ambassador to the Városliget, to the beautiful statue of Washington, to see if he doesn't throw a rope around his neck and knock him down in his wakeful mood.
There are others here.
"Do you agree that the condition for obtaining or renewing a driving license is that the citizen's intelligence quotient (IQ level) must be at least 70?"
Um. Seventy IQ? I never understood this IQ thing, anyway they say 70 is considered low. But it also depends on age and social status, what is measured as how much. It seems certain that from an environmental point of view this proposal would drive brutal profits. There is another! Have a referendum on whether
empty bottles should be returnable; to hang the flag of the European Union on all public institutions; not to implement European sanctions against Russia; that there is no eviction; that the county representatives can only be non-party members; that in the county the sub-chief should be the chief; that a person can only be prime minister twice in a row.
And finally: "do you want the Parliament to withdraw its confidence from the government?".
Go for it!
There is also something serious here.
"Do you want the Parliament to amend the rule of the Penal Code declaring aiding and abetting suicide as a crime so that it does not apply to the assistance provided to persons with full capacity to act who are incurable, cause physical or mental suffering to an unbearable degree for them and are therefore incompatible with human dignity, are they suffering from a fatal disease and there is no expected improvement in their condition?".
Who can give a reassuring answer to this question? I understand the fear of whoever asked this question. He would ask me. For anyone else. Then he would authorize a fellow human being to take his life. I understand, I cry too. After all, I can get into such a situation myself. However, I am afraid of precedent. How to determine the degree of mental suffering. In a referendum? I'm also afraid of my own answer. I prefer to leave the decision to the Creator. To do this, we need to trust in the inaudibility of the soul, to want to die.
In ancient times, they put a sword under their pillow so that they could die if they wanted to decide for themselves. I already put the sword back in the closet.
