Peti goes to Vienna and proves from there that he was not stabbed. How original! Written by Francesca Rivafinoli.
"With our representatives in Budapest, we are headed for the 'declining' and 'dangerous' Vienna," quipped the TISZA leader while posing in front of the train on Thursday morning, shortly after which he also sent a photo of a dining car, this time with the inscription "On the way to the declining west". Then, in the evening, a picture of a cyclist arrived with the wonderful original text: "Life on two wheels in the "dangerous" district of Vienna. I hope you can see the terror on my face [sunglasses smiley]".
As an aside, as an EP representative, he would have been in Strasbourg in the meantime -
when he found it once in the past, he immediately flashed that he was almost there, not even by chance anywhere else; now he is enjoying the Utasellátó menu in the comfortable dining car of a EuroCity and cycling in Vienna, skipping the European Parliament debate on the EU skills shortage and competitiveness as well as the problem of the manipulation of young people as the most natural thing in the world. But sponge on it. More interesting than this is the continuous irony with decline.
The horse's leg is sticking out of it.
It is possible (although it is becoming less and less successful ) to avoid a clear position in favor of the Brussels migration policy by cunning, delaying time,
one can theatrically complain about the potential possibility that immigrants would ever be accommodated in the outskirts of a settlement near the border in Hungary - but all this is unfortunately discredited if the same Facebook profile repeatedly jokes that Vienna, Brussels or Berlin in quotation marks, hehe, are declining, laughing smiley. If they are not actually declining, then what would Péter Magyar have to do with mass migration? If, in fact, there is no deterioration beyond that, why should there be a fuss over a few migrant reception centers?
If you think the Favoriten district is far and away cool, where you can hang out with the girls, then why would there still be a little Favoriten lifestyle here and there in Budapest?
In such cases, the irony's reference point is usually the Economist group's annual report , which now consistently places Vienna first in the ranking of the world's most livable big cities - but even in that, we see that the advantage is slowly melting away; in the "culture and environment" category, the previous result of 96.3 points dropped to 93.5. Even though this still means first place overall, it can hardly be called an improvement - even though the "education" category, for example, earns its 100 points without breaking a sweat, even though hundreds of Viennese teachers protested last week shouting "We can't take it anymore", complaining about the lack of teachers and the bureaucracy and working conditions; including that at least half of their students do not speak enough German to follow the class. In a 23-year-old teacher's class of 22, six of them are trying for the second grade for the second time,
not a single student's mother tongue is German, and three still don't know a single letter. This is 100/100 point education.
But Vienna still received a maximum score in the "stability" category, which also includes the criminal situation, while the number of violent crimes rose to 117 percent of the 2014 base by 2023 (yes, compared to the 128 percent measured in Austria as a whole, this is still quite a solid figure) . This year, a gang war also broke out between Syrian and Chechen immigrants: "The population of Brigittenau, Meidling, and Favoriten, which was already considered a no-go zone by many, observes the increasingly savage violence, finds the police intervention too little and too late, and the number of injured increases" - was written in July by none other than HVG , referring later in the article to the fact that "sexual attacks against girls - even those as young as 12 years old - are beginning to become commonplace". How good-humoured is that family man, or that politician, who after this jokes that he is a larifar, he and his staff just cycled down a street there! LOL I eat your humor.
Well, right! The Tisza Party voted for the migration pact in Brussels
Then, if we take a closer look at the Economist group's quality of life report, which is considered so authoritative, this year's edition also has a rather blunt headline: "Livability is getting worse in North America and Western Europe".
(the original English text also directly uses the verb "declines": "Liveability declines in North America & Western Europe").
All of the nine cities that advanced the most and improved their scores in the last 12 months are located to the east of Hegyeshalom (Budapest is the third most advanced city, after Hong Kong and Singapore) - and all the decliners are from the west, except for Tel Aviv. No less than five Germans are among the ten largest falling cities, but Brussels is also paying attention, which (in a tie with Barcelona) slipped back to 35th place, while Budapest rose to 32nd, a system of criteria that includes education, healthcare and infrastructure based on
Here comes the well-informed, world-viewing EP representative,
and he's saying hehe, he's declining, you know what a stupid Fidesz nonsense this is.
Vienna's statistical yearbook, the number of births has been showing a downward trend since 2016, along with continuous immigration, the fertility rate of Austrian Viennese is 1.1 (it is slowly catching up with that of foreigners, it is currently at 1.5), there have been consistently fewer births of Austrian citizens in the city for decades , as many die - if Péter Magyar can't prove with the Hungarian birth numbers that there is nothing but destruction here, then what is his insight regarding the demographic trends of the real Viennese? If the natives are dying out of the world's most livable city, what term should we use to define it, if "decline" is so inappropriate as to be downright ridiculous? In fact, it's ridiculous enough to merit three funny posts a day.
In any case, this is a special trajectory:
In February 2024, we had another ex-husband who thought in a relatively nuanced way and saw a few other colors in addition to black and white - and by October he had turned into a "removal of the opposition" politician,
who questions the decline of the West, which is still alive and well, but declining according to almost all objective indicators, in the style of a more untalented momentary and a more embarrassing deacon. From the Favoriten district, in connection with which even the left-liberal Der Standard writes about migrant communities characterized by a violent image of men, where women are looked down upon and even feel like free prey, and where "sex, drugs, weapons, violence, religion" and early school leaving they form a toxic mixture.
But of course we understand: Uncle Manfred could have given migrant sensitization as his first homework, so now you have to laugh in the comment section morning, noon, and night that everyone hasn't been stabbed in Vienna yet, even though he's been there, haha. Five stars, Genosse Magyar.
