There was anotherhearingin the European Parliament last week on the state of human rights and rule of law in Hungary, but as a Hungarian colleague of mine wrote to me did they say anything new to make it worth watching. He had not watched it. Actually there were new things, but he is correct in being sceptical that this hearing will likely not change anything. Or would it? Because in Jean-Claude JunckersWhite Paperon the future of Europe one can see signs of rapidly depleting patience in some influential EU member states with the attempts at restoring totalitarian regimes and all displays of Euroscepticism.

My democracy is better than your democracy

The hearing was organised by the Civil Liberties, Justice, and Home Affairs Committee of the European Parliament on February 27th, with the participation of Hungarian Justice Minister Lszl Trcsnyi and representatives of several non-governmental organisations, one of which was clearly pro-governmental. The agenda of the hearing included the issues of Hungarys attitude towards refugees and migrants, the media environment, the undermining of the rule of law. As expected, the biggest accent in the two-hour long hearing was on refugees. The first to speak was Lszl Trcsnyi, who tabled the issue of Communism, reminding that the hearing was held in the EP building named after Jzsef Antall who played a major role in Hungary against Communist dictatorship. Jzsef Antall was the first democratically elected prime minister of Hungary after the fall of Communism.

"So, it's worth remembering that on the 25th of February we commemorated the victims of communism and we are in the enviable situation today to live in a democracy where debate and exchange of ideas is free, desirable and good thing", said the Hungarian minister of justice and continued on to delegitimising the NGOs. Civil organisations have a very limited level of legitimacy. The government is always led by officials elected byuniversal suffrage, added the minister. Further on he spoke at length about the migrant and refugee crisis, stating that in fact many member states have a problem with fundamental rights.

"Hungary has taken its responsibility to protect the external borders of the Schengen area very seriously. In 2015 Hungary received a great deal of criticism but today we've seen that the common policy of the EU is now focusing on the protection of the EU's external borders. We are proud that we were able to bring about this change in mindset", he said.

Following him spoke Mikls Sznth, Director of the Centre for Fundamental Rights, who took an entirely pro-governmental stance. The focus of his speech was that democracy in Hungary is perfectly healthy and functioning normally. He outlaid a few different versions of democracy, underlining that there is no universal definition of democracy or rule of law. Nation states shall not be called to account uniformly on such polyphonic and vague standards, he said, seemingly supporting the illiberal road, picked by PM Viktor Orbn. Mikls Sznth further said that some countries dont even have a Constitutional Court, like The Netherlands and Sweden for example, very much reminding of theargument that ensued recently between Polish Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski and the First Vice-President of the European Commission Frans Timmermans (The Netherlands, Socialists and Democrats).

Moreover, he said, in some cases, like in France for example, the chief prosecutor is a member of the government, not an independent institution like in Hungary. And France is a clearly functioning democracy, added the analyst. His conclusion was more than pregnant with messages. Therefore, I think if we are discussing seemingly democracy, in truth we're talking about different perceptions of sovereignty but not about democracy. It's not a legal or professional debate on fundamental rights or related procedures, but is a clash of world viewsor ideologies of national sovereignties of member states how far or shall be the competences shared with the member states and the EU".

Mikls Sznth was convinced that broad changes are starting regarding the nature and the paradigm of democracy, rule of law, fundamental rights, and sovereignty. "It is obvious that this is just the beginning of wider and broader changes around the nature and paradigm of democracy, the meaning of rule of law and fundamental rights or overall about sovereignty. And its also clear that the political and legal battle between those who embrace supranational solutions for the sake of all mankind and those who embrace national identity, including the identification and definition of fundamental rights as a number one priority must not only take place in Hungary but Europe and the whole Western world as we know it. So, the best and most interesting days of our lives, I think, are still ahead of us", concluded Mr Sznth.

Stefnia Kapronczay, Executive Director of the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union adamantly dismissed these claims. In her opinion, currently two tendencies can be outlined in Hungary, which are undermining freedom and pluralism. Word is of the restructuring of the media market and the manipulation of revenue distribution. She feels that there is a process of soft censorship going on in Hungary, where it is not individual pieces of news that are under attack but entire media enterprises, leading to interference with the supply of content rather than any specific content. Regarding the restructuring of the media market, Stefnia Kapronczay quoted the OSCE findings from 2014, following the parliamentary elections, which stated that very few media can be called independent.

Most of them are concentrated in the hands of businessmen with close ties to the ruling party. The second tendency is the one of uneven distribution of state-sponsored advertisement. A problem, which is seen in almost all EU membership candidate states. In addition, there are cases of limiting journalists access to information. There are several occasions when certain journalists have been denied access to refugee camps during the refugee crisis of 2015. Several journalists and even entire media enterprises have been denied access to the parliament building on the personal order of the Speaker. The usually quoted reason is attempted recording in restricted areas.

Some bans have been lifted since, but there is legal pressure to silence criticism against the government. Stefnia Kapronczay reminded that in Hungary defamation remains a criminal offence. Charges are regularly brought against investigative journalists, defenders and watchdog organisations. She also reminded that the amendments of the freedom and information act in 2015 have also rendered access more difficult to public data. Regarding NGOs, the problem is very serious, she explained. A new impetus was given to the process of stigmatising independent civil organisations. An amendment to the law on civil organisations is scheduled on the agenda of the spring session of Parliament.

From data leaked so far it becomes evident that a tightening of the regime is imminent for organisations financed from abroad, as well as the politically active ones. Most of these organisations are again linked mainly to the migrant crisis. The rhetoric or tactics shall be familiar from Israel or Russia, added Stefnia Kapronczay. She quoted data, according to which 87% of journalists in Hungary believe that the political class controls the media and not the other way around. Threatening and stigmatising NGOs is putting into question the very nature of democracy, she reminded.

Mikls Sznth intervened towards the end of the hearing with yet another troubling statement, saying that during the first decade of the new century liberal media dominated in Hungary. Today the situation is more balanced and now if owners have made certain decisions that is because of market forces. There is civil society which is healthy in Hungary, he repeated. The minister of justice concurred with this appraisal and stated that last year he proposed a bill, making NGO registration much easier. Now they do not have to wait before beginning their activities. Nobody congratulated me at the time. Nobody said its excellent now that NGOs can begin their work immediately. Now I'm not asking for congratulations, but I would like that to be a general recognition that registration has been made easier, he said. He announced that there are 6000 NGOs currently operating in Hungary. They're flourishing, he stated.

He reminded once more that NGOs do not possess the same legitimacy as directly elected governments and asked whether not accepting an NGOs opinion necessarily makes the state a dictatorship. German MEP Birgit Sippel (Socialists and Democrats) reacted sharply to these claims by saying that no one is questioning the legitimacy of governments. But if you are elected and whatever the majorities are you have to respect different political statements, groups and also different positions from NGOs and from citizens. And in a democracy you have to make sure that all these different positions and arguments can be heard. So, freedom of media and freedom of expression of positions is very important. And is also necessary in a democracy that media have the possibility and the duty to be very critical, she added.

According to Todor Gardos of Amnesty International, there are other problems, like for example the evasive use of cardinal laws that require super majority without consultation or genuine debate. Also problematic are media laws, a regressive definition of family and weakened legal protection of sexual minorities. He pointed out that there are currently ongoing processes of dismantling of checks & balances regarding the Constitutional court and the judiciary. NGOs are often the subject of intimidation and harassment, often ordered by the prime minister himself. Over the past years the government and governing party members have themselves uttered intolerant and discriminatory statements against women, Muslims, Roma and LGBTI people.

"We call on you to keep asking questions about Hungary and to keep pressure on the Commission and member states to deliver on their obligations. What is happening in Hungary today is a deliberate targeting of various groups in society, often those who are already severely marginalised and deprived", added the human rights activist. No lesser problem is the one with the refugees. Mistreatment of refugees is a common sight; laws make it virtually impossible to file for asylum, aiming at making the lives of those who managed to squeeze through exceptionally difficult. There was an openletterpublished in the day of the hearing, addressed to Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos (Greece, EPP), which calls for looking into the preparation of a new draft bill, which would make applying for asylum in Hungary extremely difficult. The bill was approved today (March 7).

To all the criticism the Hungarian minister and the pro-government analyst replied using the argument that there are similar problems elsewhere and that Hungary is in fact doing its job. Accusations followed that the NGOs are not as critical regarding refugee problems elsewhere. At the end of the hearing Lszl Trcsnyi even announced that Central Europe is being discriminated against. He gave an example with the problems of Hungarian enterprises, squeezed by competition. Actually, competition is violating fundamental rights as well, were his words. Of such discrimination often talks the Polish foreign minister, according to whom Western companies have benefited from the enlargement of the EU at the expense of national enterprises. On March22 in the EP Civil Liberties Committee there will be a hearing of Frans Timmermans about the procedure for the protection of the rule of law against Poland.

Hungary Brings Up Communism as a Shield Against Criticism About ... - euinside.eu

French artist Marc Ahr skates along St. Petersburg's frozen canals and removes the garbage, but this is only a small part of what he does in Russia's northern capital, and the locals are awfully puzzled.

"You know, he could be the city's symbol, if he isn't already," a St. Petersburg musician tells me. We've known each other for five minutes and are watching together as Marc, a Frenchman, skates along the frozen Griboedov Canal.

Marc pins garbage with a lance he made and tries to throw it into a basket that he wears like a backpack. The basket has a sign, "Spb Eco Cleaner." He misses sometimes, but the children are nevertheless ecstatic. One ruddy woman stops in perplexity and exclaims, "It's that foreigner who picks up garbage from the frozen canals!" The locals think Marc's idea is bizarre but entertaining, and his ecological project is becoming popular.

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

Marc is actually quite extravagant. He looks like an expat gone mad with loads of free time. Its not that in St. Petersburg no one thinks of ecology, but no one goes into the canals to pick up garbage, making a spectacle out of it by using a lance in the form of a hammer and sickle.

I met Marc Ahr, the "famous artist," as he calls himself, when he splendidly lowered his hands into a street trash bin and smiling, fished out his booty - cardboard. Then he took us to his yard where he has a "garden" - a collection of dozens of plastic bottles, spruce needles, eggshells, corks, banana peels and many other things.

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

Honestly speaking, it looks like a private sorted-out dump. Some of his neighbors actually think so. "People always think that I'm a bit crazy, a madman, but what can you do?" he laughs.

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

"I give these metal cans to my grandmother, who hands them in for recycling and uses the money to buy medicine."

"And what's the bag with the spruce needles and shells for?"

"It will be compost! I'll take it to the dacha."

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

Marc believes that garbage is not garbage, but is either art or something that can be reused. This winter he made a series of pictures out of ice. He also keeps them in the yard, wrapped in fiberglass and plywood so that the February sun does not melt them. His favorite is the one with the cigarette butts screwed into the ice. In above-zero-degree temperature they have soaked, blackened and are now sadly hanging. There is a similar work with multicolored plastic corks.

"In France, you can get 190 euros for a ton of such corks. But here no one needs them," Marc says with disappointment. "And I love ice, because it is not eternal, like our planet."

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

Suddenly, a woman walks out into the yard. She is one of those bothered by the "ecological" neighbor. They dislike each other because she "does not pay her rent." Marc is offended by this. She thinks that she is allowed to do more than others. But she cannot; it is not communistic behavior.

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

At home he has Bolshevik symbols in the form of a mosaic made of pieces of the Berlin Wall. It hangs in the most noticeable place and separates the living room with the spruces hanging from the ceiling, the "responsible" coffee under the piano cover and the glass samovars.

"I've wanted to do something with this Berlin Wall for a long time. And who spent the money to build it? The Communists, to protect themselves from Capitalism."

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

Marc went to Berlin a week after the Wall fell, and he began taking it apart by pieces, placing them into packages with the label,"Fragment of the Berlin Wall, original." For his first four hours on the Wall and the pictures about the experience he earned $500 in France. A couple of years later he became so rich that he went to Russia and bought a 230-square meter apartment. He paid tribute, so to say, to his Russian roots.

I ask him when Communism will come to Russia.

"No, it's still too early. You are only going through the first stage of Capitalism. Karl Marx said that Communism would arrive only after Capitalism, no sooner."

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

He has turned his apartment into his own micro-communist state in which each guest pays for a room based on his income: some pay 20 euros, and others pay 120 euros. For now the model works, everyone is happy and he intends to go to France for a while to get involved in politics, to get rid of corporate lobbyists and unite Russia with Europe.

Photo: Ruslan Shamukov/RBTH

"I want people to understand that Russia is nothing to be scared about. The fact that we have one road was already demonstrated by Alexander II and Peter the Great. You even have the Napoleon cake! You have oil, and we in France have intelligent people. You have really beautiful girls, we have awful feminism. A perfect balance. We need to live better and we definitely need a revolution if we want to save our planet. I don't know how to raise people's awareness, but I want to try very much."

Frenchman cleans up after Russians; what's Communism got to do with it? - Russia Beyond the Headlines

North Korean Communism is considered great by Americas communist party, but only 2.83 percent of their roads are paved. They are much worse off than San Felipe. All the roads in North Korea would circle Pluto 3.5 times, but only 450 miles are paved, barely the distance of New York to Cleveland. I grew up on a gravel road, but that was 75 years ago. Even the sections roads where we ran our hounds in the deep forest are now paved. Growing up we had one thing in common with North Korea, we used animal manure as a part of our fertilizing the fields. They dont have modern fertilizers, and use manure as their only source to enrich the soil.

Socialism/Communism is a failure. Bill Gates net worth of $85 to $90 billion is much greater than North Koreas Gross Domestic Product (GDP). If you really hate him, you might be a candidate for immigration. North Korean GDP is estimated at a paltry $17.4 billion, while free market USA is $16.77 trillion. One can visit North Korea, but will be assigned a care taker, who will not allow you to roam freely. They cant allow for real truth, in a failing paranoid Communist state. When any state lives on lies, loss of freedom is a must. Soldiers are everywhere, and privileges with unhampered police authority. Visitors are required to properly focus all pictures taken of statues of dictators at Mansu Hill grounds. Pictures, not meeting standards are destroyed. Can you imagine being forced to destroy a bad photograph of Trump for not meeting standards?

Communism isn't so great - Del Rio News Herald

In the recent film Trumbo, about the blacklisted screenwriterand Stalinistwho helped end the barring of communists from working in Hollywood, a sinister, bespectacled figure threatens a poverty-row filmmaker who is employing Trumbo. Fire him, the sinister figure says, or wewho he identifies as the Motion Picture Alliance For The Preservation of American Idealswill shut you down.

In point of fact, such an incident could have and probably did happen, for that organization did try to enforce the blacklisting of suspected or actual communists from studios. But the makers of this eulogy to Trumbo overshot their mark by having said sinister figure cite Ronald Reagan as one of the members. Reagan, then a liberal, but anticommunist Democrat, was not.

It is readily apparent why the liberal film-makers of Trumbo are trying to link Reagan to an unofficial enforcement branch of the blacklist (although, to be fair, many of the anticommunist members were blacklisted by Hollywood reds when the latter had more clout with the studios). Even before his presidency, an unshakeable assertion by liberals was that Reagan was a right-wing loony enforcing the blacklist against progressives.

But the real Reagan was hardly a proponent of the blacklist; indeed, as president of the Screen Actors Guild, he sought to ameliorate its effects.

Almost alone among the friendly witnesses who testified before the House Committee on Un-American Activities in 1947 regarding communism in Hollywood (the same Congressional group that would help send Trumbo to jail) Reagan advised against imposing a blacklist on communists he had personally battled within the Screen Actors Guild.

Rather than, in the words of actor Robert Taylor, sending them back to Moscow, Reagan instead asserted that the best way to oppose communists was to make democracy work. An example of this, Reagan stated, was practiced in the Screen Actors Guild by insuring everyone a vote and keeping everyone informed.

And this policy Reagan advocated for the country at large: I believe that, as Thomas Jefferson put it, if all the American people know all of the facts they will never make a mistake.

But unlike the majority of right-wingers who testified, Reagan did not favor outlawing the Communist Party. As a citizen, the actor said, I would hesitate to see any political party outlawed on the basis of its political ideology.

Attacking the Communist Partys philosophy, and even more, their tactics, which are those of the fifth column, and are dishonest, Reagan nonetheless didnt want the country to abandon democracy to fight reds: I never as a citizen want to see our country become urged, by either fear or resentment of this group, that we ever compromise with any of our democratic principles through that fear or resentment. I still think that democracy can do it.

Reagans adherence to civil liberties was all the more remarkable considering his run-ins with Hollywood communists during a 1945-46 labor strike in Hollywooda strike militantly and violently organized against studios by communists. As a member of the Independent Citizens Committee of the Arts and Sciences and Professions (ICCASP), a liberal group that helped re-elect FDR for a fourth term, Reagan became uncomfortably aware that over 70 percent of the supposedly liberal membership were hard-line Stalinists.

Along with other anti-communist liberals in the organization, among then actress Olivia De Havilland, Reagan tested the waters by introducing a resolution condemning communism as well as fascism and pledging support to the free enterprise system. Hardline communists denounced Reagan as a fascist and the actor later received a phone call from someone threatening to throw acid in his face. Outnumbered, and unable to convince communist members to allow the resolution to be put to a vote among the membership, Reagan and other liberals, including FDRs son James Roosevelt, resigned.

After testifying before HUAC in 1947, Reagan joined others to try to minimize the effects of the blacklist in a group called The Motion Picture Industry Council. In the words of liberal screenwriter and founding member Philip Dunne, the purpose of the group was to limit the scope of the blacklist, get the blacklisted back to work, and defend those who were falsely accused of communist beliefs.

But such nuance regarding Reagan does not fit into liberal narratives. Because Reagan was anticommunist, even while a Democrat, he has to be a red-baiter trying to deny those such as Trumbo employment.

Ronald Reagan: Use Democracy To Fight Hollywood Communism - The Liberty Conservative

Recently, during the protests at Ramjas college and the Azaadi agitation which took place last year at JNU, there has been a continuous demand that an absolute freedom of speech shall prevail in the country without any reasonable restrictions. By observing Umar Khalid duringhis statements and protests, and how he got away without any charges wearing a garb of communism and free speech, Praveen Togadia and Akhbarudin Owaisi seem to have been very impressed with the JNU student.

A close aide of Owaisi told faking news, We are in talks with the liberal left think tanks, AISA, CPI(M) leaders and some JNU Students who will help us embrace this ideology as our new religion so that we are able to transform a hate speech into free speech. Similarly, Togadias spokesperson too said, By embracing communism and with the help of these people, we can help ourselves with an image makeover and transform our communal speeches into secular ones.

Also, the reason as to why Owaisi and Togadia got too carried away and emotional with the whole incident is that the fight of the left liberal brigade and AISA Students shall only be restricted tothe ultra nationalists or the ideology of jingoistic nationalism. Free religious hate speeches shall be welcomed by them with open arms. Hence it implies, that by embracing communism under the guidance of the left liberals and the intellectual elite, it would be easy to provide a breeding ground to the radical religious elements across India and would help them propagate their radical but free ideas and agendas.

Fascinated by the whole narrative itself, some separatist elements like the ones in Kashmir, remaining few khalistanis and the ones in north-easttoo have been driven by the idea and are considering to follow the footsteps of the two religious leaders in order to propagate their ideas.
