Not a continuation  >>/50994/ but related to the topic.
Am being slowpoke about this, but basically just realized the opposition, and their voters are hoping for such revolution-putsch like the coloured revolutions.
Now that the realization that the opposition parties cannot win an election, they started to hope that (relatively) non-violent protests will dislodge the Fidesz and Orbán from the government. Ofc basically in all the countries even in "developed" democracies we see protests after all the elections - US, UK, France, Germany, whatever -, where people are hoping to reverse the election results, or generate a new election, but in case of Hungary a rhetoric and a mentality, a way of thinking was built up, cultivated consciously, helped by Western media and NGOs and think-tanks/research institutes (be Soros-funded or not).
This rhetoric and ideas are constantly reinforced by reiteration, like a prayer wheel round and round. They constantly tell us and themselves that:
- Orbán and Co. is authoritarian
- elections are won fraudulently, and the electoral system is rigged to favor Fidesz in its basis
- the Fidesz government violates human rights (basically freedom of speech violations)
- they steal all the time, they siphon EU funds and state income into their own and friends pockets
- the only way of getting by is through bribery, cronyism, nepotism, and embezzling money, these and similar activities are core parts of the system, rotten through and through
And they also believe that all the listed methods on picrel: civil disobedience, civil disorder, internet activism, nonviolent resistance, political demonstrations, and student activism (oh that high school girl with her foul-mouthed poetry) will lead to the overthrow of the Fidesz government and establishment of a new government from the opposition, and that they will create Paradise on Earth liberal democracy.
Meanwhile they conveniently ignore - among a number of things - the fact, that these colour revolutions that happened in the ex-Soviet states (and Serbia), did not produced the expected results, and essentially were failures even a places  where they succeeded, such as Georgia or Ukraine. I only mention these two and not the listed Kyrgyzstan and Serbia, because in Georgia and Ukraine they really managed to get into power those who were friendly towards the US. We already have that! We are in the NATO, and recent friction with the US is the result of the internal affairs of the US, because they have Democrat leadership, president now. With Trump everything was a-ok, but back when Obama was in power they shitted on us the same. Democrats just don't like Hungary.
