Universities are an important part of the community. Here in Hungary, Prime Minister Viktor Orban very controversially drove the Soros-founded Central European University out of Budapest, to Vienna. To the Western mind, this is a scandal. And yeah, it’s not a good look. On the other hand, Orban understood perfectly well that universities are unavoidably political actors. He also understood that what Soros was trying to do is to form the coming generations of Hungarian elites in his particular philosophy of liberalism, which entails globalist economics (including open borders), LGBT ideology, and the usual [hard left] things. In a small country like this, an elite that has been catechized in Soros Thought could make a profound difference in the country’s future.
