The Hungarian govt’s understanding of the #ruleoflaw apparently doesn’t include #mediafreedom. #indexhu is no longer independent. Resignations en masse by good journalists with backbones.
@BaselInstitute hi there, i completed your amazing operational analysis course a couple of weeks ago but due to technical shortfalls it shows that I’m still missing modules. I emailed you a couple of times about this issue, but received no answer. Can you please look into it?
Not surprised that China chose an “ideologically correct” actress for #Mulan (thru all the funding to Hollywood lately). They also allegedly removed the LGBTQI Shang storyline as well. Mulan used to be my fav @Disney movie. Sadly, I’m joining those who #BoycottMulan
@callmesimon Hi Simon, nice to meet you. You've every right to hold an opinion about TransferWise. However, I work in compliance, not in customer support. I've never worked with your case, and find it unfair to have my name dragged into it. Could you kindly amend your tweet to remove my name?
Meanwhile Lokál, a widely circulated free daily gov’t mouthpiece proudly announces that the “Soros university is busted” - citing #propaganda news Magyar Idők’s failed investigation about #CEU’s US campus. (It also reports about the “rapist migrant”...) #hungary#politics
Just to show you the new enemy of the #Hungarian government. This is The front page of Ripost, the government’s propaganda paper “How long will the homeless try everyone’s patience?”
One of the speakers, a CEU alum, says we not only protest for CEU, but for democracy, the rule of law and critical thinking. #istandwithceu#protest#budapest#hungary
@SDGMasterglass How would you do it? Within the legal framework the number of available tools are limited, incl. referendums and demonstrations. But id be frankly interested in your opinion
@Chosen1Gods@SDGMasterglass Damn right. IMO it’s the state’s positive obligation to create a social net protecting those who are at risk, as well as creating an environment where ppl are happy and use less to none substances, even more: treating those with mental illnesses to avoid the decay in their life.
You know that the media is free, when there are 4 leading news discussing PM #Orban and rhinos on a big news site (origo). There’s nothing else we need to know about! (19 Oct 2018)
