IS JOBBIK NOW A LEFTIST PARTY?

Jobbik: ideologically cross-eyed since at least 2013.

Jobbik, the Hungarian political party that made it's name by being strongly anti-Jewish and anti-Gypsy, is now looking increasingly like a Leftist party, as news leaked that actual Leftists are thinking of allying with the party in order to defeat Prime Minister Viktor Orban's Right-wing Fidesz party at next year's general election.

ALT-RIGHT PODCAST 18: THE ARREST OF RICHARD SPENCER


Andy and Colin are joined by Richard Spencer of the National Policy Institute to talk about his recent attempt to hold a conference in Budapest against the opposition of the Hungarian state. Among the topics discussed are the possible reasons for the clamp down, Richard's arrest and time in detention, how the conference went ahead anyway, and the need for an identitarian vision that can transcend the limitations of divisive petty nationalism.


JOBBIK'S UNHOLY ALLIANCE

Following the events surrounding the recent NPI conference in Budapest, in which Jobbik distinguished itself by its cowardice and lack of solidarity for fellow identitarians, here is Colin Liddell's appraisal of the party, published last year at the Occidental Observer.



It seems that these days hatred, and the right to use it, even in defence of one’s nation, race, and culture, has to be offset by plenty of misplaced love. This is the take home message from Gábor Vona’s recent trip to Turkey, where the president of the Hungarian nationalist party Jobbik has been declaring his "Eurasian love":
"I didn’t come here to talk to you about the transitory subject of diplomatic and economic relations. Others will do that on behalf of me. I came here to meet my brothers and sisters, to offer a fraternal alliance and bring you the good news: Hungarians are awakening. Our common mission and the universal task of Turanism [see also Hungarian Turanism] are to build bridges between East and West, between Muslims and Christians, to be able to fight together for a better world – to show to the world that Christians and Muslims are not enemies, but brothers and sisters. No one can accomplish this mission more effectively than Hungarians and Turks because we are connected by common blood."

THE BUST UP IN BUDA


Following the banning of the NPI Confrence in Budapest, Richard Spencer has apparently now been arrested by the Hungarian Police at a private, informal meeting at a city pub (soon to be renamed a bierkeller in Liberal propaganda). As the above video shows, the charge, if there is one, is failing to carry his passport. Such laws exist in many countries – they certainly do in Japan – although they are largely ignored unless the authorities have some arbitrary reason for cracking down on foreigners, which seems to be the case here.

FREEDOM vs. DEMOCRACY: BUDAPEST AS SYMBOL OF THE GREAT DIVIDE

Budapest: You couldn't choose a lovelier city to have your conference banned in.


Europe and America, the twin pillars of Western dominance in the global system, are rapidly diverging. This has been borne out by the recent experience of Richard Spencer and his attempt to hold an intellectual conference in Europe.

What is the nature of this divide between Europe and America? To reduce it to its most obvious characteristics: in Europe there is little freedom, but much democracy. In America there is much freedom but little democracy.
