The Guardian Says Orban is a Bigger Racist Threat Than Jobbik

According to an op-ed by Dutch anti-racist Cas Mudde in The Guardian, the Nazi Orban is a bigger threat than the Neo-Nazi Jobbik, and the media needs to wise up and spend more time attacking and degrading him as evil.

Misguided emphasis on the most extreme and photogenic radical right groups also plays out in Hungary. As the international media continues to give little or no attention to the increasingly radical right rhetoric of prime minister Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party, they continue to publish alarmist articles and op-eds about the rise of the radical right Movement for a Better Hungary (Jobbik) – despite the fact that Fidesz probably has a more radical discourse (though not ideology) than Jobbik.

…

Mr. Orbán doesn’t just warn about ‘the survival or disappearance of European values and nations’, he organises xenophobic referendum campaigns and builds walls on his borders – roughly 25 years after the Iron Curtain was lifted in, of all places, Hungary…Even more upsetting than Orbán’s increasingly radical right politics is the deafening silence from the rest of Europe…Even the usual suspects such as anti-racist organisations and the leftwing media, normally so quick to condemn racism and warn about the rise of fascism, have been sidetracked by lesser threats such as Jobbik and Pegida. But while they are fighting the radical right at the European margins, it is growing deep within the heart of the EU. It’s time to shift priorities.

I would basically agree that Orban is the bigger threat to the EU agenda, despite his ostensible Jew-love. Jobbik is an outsider party who openly identifies as nationalist, while Orban is the elected PM out saying that Europe is for Europeans.

It’s fair enough, however, that it was presumably the popularity of Jobbik which pressured Orban into taking such a hard public stance.
