Professor Furedi is himself Hungarian, and he looks further than \u2018voter fatigue, the cost-of-living crisis or even the allegations of corruption.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>He attributes the defeat to \u2018three interrelated factors\u2019. Firstly, \u2018Fidesz has seemed at a loss as to how to engage with the younger generation. Indeed, by 2024, it appeared that it had more or less given up on young people, fatalistically accepting it had lost their support. It was content to view itself as a party of the older generations.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Prof. Furedi suggests: \u2018Fidesz never understood what drove the hostility of younger voters towards it.\u2019 The \u2018generational disaffection\u2019 of the younger people came from \u2018the powerful influence exerted on them by Western identity politics and, underpinning it, therapy culture, with its emphasis on victimhood and vulnerability. The influence of therapy culture and the increasing focus on individual psychology and identity have tended to detach young people from the traditional, conservative values of Fidesz.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>Losing a culture war<\/h2>\n<p>He goes on to claim \u2018many in Fidesz assured me that I was exaggerating the problem. They imagined that these phenomena were confined to the West and somehow miraculously stopped at the border of Hungary. Yet a therapeutic, identitarian sensibility increasingly prevails throughout Hungary\u2019s cultural and educational institutions. Invariably, those influenced by it are likely to be drawn to Western anti-traditionalist and anti-nationalist ideals. Supporters of the government appeared to be oblivious to the fact that they not only were facing a culture war \u2013 they were losing it, too.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Thirdly, he says, \u2018in recent years, many Fidesz politicians have come across as complacent, entitled and out of touch with their own society. This problem was particularly striking in relation to their constant mis-assessment of the challenge posed by Tisza leader P\u00e9ter Magyar. With every rally and demonstration, (Magyar) became ever more comfortable \u2013 and increasingly formidable \u2013 as a political leader.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>There is a similarity here with Nigel Farage, who has moblised the TikTok generation so effectively. A \u2018belated attempt\u2019 by Fidesz \u2018to create its own cohort of online influencers lacked the spontaneity of the Tisza rebels. &#8230; Fidesz could not match the cultural \u00e9lan and mobilising pull of its opponents.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Better at populism\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>There are certainly lessons for populist politicians and those who appeal to biblical standards rather than those of the Elite here in the UK and indeed worldwide. \u2018Tisza won the battle for hearts and minds. It proved to be better at populism than its opponents. Riding the \u2018enough is enough\u2019 wave of public discontent, it succeeded where previous opponents of Orb\u00e1n had failed.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Professor Furedi strikes an optimistic note. \u2018Being in government rather than posturing in opposition will likely undermine Tisza. It will certainly expose its populism as entirely performative. And by the time the next General Election comes around, Fidesz should have learned from this experience of defeat. The future of Hungary depends on an effective Fidesz opposition.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Europe\u2019s centrist elites may hope that the defeat of Orb\u00e1n represents a defeat for the populist movement in Europe. But crucially, none of the values that Fidesz stands for, from national sovereignty and strong borders to the importance of tradition, has been explicitly challenged, let alone defeated by Tisza. That is why I am confident that the populist surge will continue to transform the political landscape in Western societies.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018As for Hungary, it is important that Fidesz holds its nerve and learns from the experience of defeat. An honest assessment of what went wrong is the prerequisite for a recovery ahead of the next election.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2>Previous Articles<\/h2>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" title=\"Opens in a new tab\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/will-hungary-stand-or-fall-to-globalist-pressure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Will Hungary Stand, or Fall to the Globalists? \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" title=\"Opens in a new tab\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/starmer-munich\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Starmer in Munich: What he means by \u2018We\u2019 and \u2018Our\u2019 \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" title=\"Opens in a new tab\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/goerings-principle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Goering\u2019s Principle \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 9px; background-color: #ffff00; border-top: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-bottom: 9px solid #FFFF00; border-right: 18px solid #FFFF00; border-left: 18px solid #FFFF00; display: inline-block;\" title=\"Opens in a new tab\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/farage-exposes-soros-plotters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Farage exposes Soros plotters \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Support us!<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>We appreciate your support; it enables our research and helps us inform your prayers.<br \/>\nSo click below to support Christian Voice and stand up for the King of kings<\/b><br \/>\n<a title=\"Opens in a new tab or window\" href=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/index.php\/information\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3940\" style=\"border: 0px;\" title=\"Join Today!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Join_donate_Logo2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"185\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><em><b>Click on the social media links below to share this post:<\/b><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peter Magyar defeated Viktor Orb\u00e1n in Hungary&#8217;s 2026 general election.
