Antifaschismus bedeutet auch #FreeMaja
Seid laut für Maja, schafft Aufmerksamkeit, schließt euch Aktionen an, organisiert welche, schreit es heraus!
Zeigt euch solidarisch!
„Jetzt sind es nur noch wenige Tage. Wohl am Mittwoch soll Maja T. erfahren, welche Strafe die ungarische Justiz vorsieht. Bis dahin sitzt T., 25, nonbinär, Antifaschist*in aus Thüringen, weiter in einer Gefängniszelle mitten in Budapest, zwei mal drei Meter gross, hinter Gittern und Plexiglas. Direkt neben dem Landgericht, das nun das Urteil fällen wird. Eines, das bis zu 24 Jahre Haft bedeuten kann.
Vom deutschen Staat illegal des nachts verschleppt sitzt Maja mittlerweile seit fast 600 Tagen unter dem Orban Regime in Isolationshaft. Das ist Folter.
Maja soll dafür bestraft werden, dass Maja Antifaschist*in ist, es ist ein reiner Indizienprozess ohne stichhaltige Beweise…..“

"Now there are only a few days left. Maja T. is expected to learn on Wednesday what sentence the Hungarian judiciary has in store for her. Until then, T., 25, non-binary, anti-fascist from Thuringia, will remain in a prison cell in the middle of Budapest, two by three meters in size, behind bars and Plexiglas. Right next to the regional court that will now pass sentence. A sentence that could mean up to 24 years in prison.
Illegally abducted by the German state at night, Maja has now been held in solitary confinement under the Orban regime for almost 600 days. This is torture.
Maja is to be punished for being an anti-fascist; it is a purely circumstantial case with no solid evidence...."

On the same day, the EU Commission launched an infringement procedure against #Hungary for failing to implement the European Media Freedom Act #EMFA + the Audiovisual Media Services Directive #AVMSD:
"Hungary does not comply with provisions re interference in the work of #journalists", "restricting their economic activities and editorial freedom."
Nor "offer adequate protection of journalistic sources & confidential comms, nor effective judicial protection when these rights are breached."
ICYMI: In December, the @EUCommission has opened an infringement procedure against #Belgium for failing to correctly transpose the EU's #DrinkingWater Directive, which is supposed to protect human health by updating water quality standards and tackling pollutants, such as #EndocrineDisruptors and #microplastics.
Apparently, Belgium has failed to update its risk assessments for domestic distribution systems, and to make available mandatory information to the public. 🤔

Many of us have artists - be they musicians, writers, painters, - or film makers whose works become part of our lives over the years. We have read all of their works, own all their music and listen and read over and over again. It is almost as if they become our friends, even though we have never met them. And when they die, we feel a sadness as if someone we know has passed, such is the relationship we have formed over the years with these artists. That is how I feel on reading the news that Béla Tarr, the Hungarian film maker has died. I have seen all of his films, many several times and he has long been my favourite film director. Sadder too to learn he was younger than me, if even only by a handful of months.
RIP/Nyugodjon békében! Béla.

From 2015 to 2024, Europe has increased its military spending by 83 percent.
It is mind-blowing what we could have done for health, climate change, and innovation, had it not been for Putin and his lackey in The Oval Office.

We don't seem to see the results of that yet, which indicates that the level of investment we had were ridiculously low for the level of risk.
European politicians should have to answer for their past mismanagement, in particular that which enriched the Kremlin to the point of a russian #war against Europe funded by Europe.
And the corruption continues: #Belgium, #Hungary, #Slovakia, #Spain, and other countries in the EU where russian corruption runs deep and corrodes action.
Was anyone else WATCHING the World Cup qualifiers?
I just saw #Ireland defeat #Hungary in the last minute of stoppage time, after tying the match with 10 minutes in regulation.
#TroyParrott surely had the game of his life.
U.S. President Donald Trump granted Hungary an exemption from sanctions on purchases of Russian oil, providing a major win for Prime Minister Viktor Orban. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/08/world/politics/trump-hungary-orban-oil/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #donaldtrump #hungary #viktororban #oil #russia #ukraine #russiaukrainewar
