you try to put in my mouth don't fit my previous statements...goes back to your penchant for "Straw Man" arguments in virtually all debates.

For the benefit of anyone else who might stumble across this thread...Conor's article uses actual accounts, movements and statements that clearly show ONLY Autocrats are drawn to Viktor Orban...and you don't have to be a Poly Sci grad to figure out that those who abhor Authoritarianism, oppose Orban and his friends...which apparently include Donald Trump and JD Vance ( who is 'owned' by Peter Thiel...a noted individual who has stated his "Profound skepticism about the compatibility of Freedom and Democracy, leading to descriptions of his ideology as 'Techno-Authoritarian'"

Again, suck up some courage and state which ideology you identify with...Democracy or Authoritarianism?

One other thing to contemplate...most Authoritarian regimes aren't doing very well economically when compared to Democracies...that includes Hungary and Russia....time to choose, Ned...
