‘Whoever controls the media of a country controls the mindset of that country through which controls the country’ #Hungary’s PMs chief political advisors infamous quote is critically featured in song Four moods 2. Surely Azahriahs new fan likes that song. https://t.co/IWTcE7US5l

“It is a big campaign and has had an enormously chilling effect” @mhlyeszter, Amnesty Hungary's researcher on the Hungarian government's ongoing homophobic and transphobic campaign. We are working for a Hungary where everyone is equal and safe 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

Today’s #Pride in Pécs was the third in the city. A month before the event, a local politician of the governing party attacked an #LGBTQ rights event and smeared organizers. Great that today’s pride was supported by many many locals in Pécs! 🇭🇺🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

[Vig Dávid @divaDgiV]

Go Pécs Pride, Go! 🚀🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇭🇺 The only #Pride march outside of the capital of #Hungary was a huge success with over a thousand people! Big kudos to DYNH, Pécs and the Pécs group of @AmnestyHungary !

[Vig Dávid @divaDgiV]

Thank you @IrlAmbHungary for the interest in our work on human rights and rule of law in #Hungary! Looking forward to future conversations too!

“Today’s ECtHR decision sends a crucial message to transgender people in #Hungary and the govt: the fight for effective and accessible legal gender recognition is far from over. The govt must urgently end its hateful campaign against #LGBTI people! Equal Rights Now! 🏳️‍⚧️🇭🇺✊🏾

[Amnesty EU @AmnestyEU]

For years, #Hungary's govt has targeted #transgender people and #asylumseekers.

We welcome today's decisions from #CJEU and #ECtHR courts which confirm that the Hungarian government has violated their rights.

🙌Equal rights for everyone in Hungary now🙌
