Sign the petition, stand up for the freedoms of all of us! Long live Hungarian freedom!

Pride is not just a demonstration. Pride is a movement.
The government is trying to restrict peaceful protests with a critical voice by targeting a minority. Therefore, as a movement, we will fight for the freedom of all Hungarians to protest!

The amendment to the assembly law to ban pride marches will create a madeup rule to ban any demonstration on any pretext. Organisers and participants of demonstrations are being intimidated and discouraged from expressing their political views by the use of facial recognition software and the threat of fines. The modification to the assembly law was passed by 136 "brave people" in the parliament on March 18th 2025, and signed by the President of Hungary on March 19th. But the fight is just beginning. We will not let Hungary's largest regular human rights demonstration, the Budapest Pride March, be banned!

#Hungary’s new #AntiLGBTQ+ law bans #Pride events and sparks #protests

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — "A new anti-#LGBTQ+ law banning Pride events and allowing authorities to use #FacialRecognition software to identify those attending the festivities was passed in Hungary on Tuesday, leading to a large #demonstration on the streets of #Budapest.

"Several thousand protesters chanting anti-government slogans gathered after the vote outside Hungary’s parliament. They later staged a blockade of the Margaret Bridge over the Danube, blocking traffic and disregarding police instructions to leave the area.

"The move by Hungarian lawmakers is part of a crackdown on the country’s LGBTQ+ community by the nationalist-populist party of Prime Minister #ViktorOrbán, who is an ally of Russian President #VladimirPutin and U.S. President #DonaldTrump.

"The measure, which is reminiscent of similar restrictions against sexual minorities in #Russia, was passed in a 136-27 vote. The law, supported by Orbán’s Fidesz party and their minority coalition partner the #ChristianDemocrats, was pushed through parliament in an accelerated procedure after being submitted on Monday.

"Opposing legislators led a vivid protest in the legislature involving rainbow-colored smoke bombs.

"At the protest outside parliament, Evgeny Belyakov, a Russian citizen who immigrated to Hungary after facing repression in Russia, said the legislation went at the heart of people’s rights to peacefully assemble."

Nachdem die Arschlöcher ihr #ComingOut hatten, sollen wir #Queers jetzt zurück in den Schrank. Damit alles seine Richtigkeit hat.

"Die #Budapest Pride sollte 20245 an einem 'geschlossenen Ort' stattfinden und nicht wie bisher an einem öffentlichen Ort."

All our rights are up for grabs...

Tomorrow, we’re holding another demonstration in #Budapest for #transrights!

Come and join us :) Every bit of support matters. Even just showing up and being there helps, because when people look around and see supporting faces, they know they’re not alone.

Tomorrow (February 22nd) 3pm, come to Calvin Square, just by joining you can show hope to everyone around you, to those who feel lost, you can show them a bit of light, a goal, a community, something to fight for, a reason to wake up the next day.

The trans community has once again become the target of a politically motivated campaign. Today, every part of our lives is banned or made impossible by the state.
Many of us feel there is no hope. That the last opportunities have been pulled out from under our feet.

Erfolgreiche Verfassungsbeschwerde gegen die Auslieferung nach Ungarn

Mit heute veröffentlichtem Beschluss hat die 1. Kammer des Zweiten Senats des Bundesverfassungsgerichts der #Verfassungsbeschwerde einer sich als non-binär identifizierenden Person mit deutscher #Staatsagehörigkeit gegen ihre bereits erfolgte Auslieferung nach Ungarn stattgegeben. Der beschwerdeführenden Person wird in Ungarn zur Last gelegt, im Februar 2023 gemeinsam mit weiteren Personen vermeintliche Sympathisanten der #rechtsextrem​en Szene in #Budapest angegriffen zu haben. Im Dezember 2023 wurde sie in #Berlin festgenommen. Am 27. Juni 2024 erklärte das #Kammergericht ihre #Auslieferung nach Ungarn für zulässig. Mit Beschluss vom 28. Juni 2024 hat die 1. Kammer des Zweiten Senats des #Bundesverfassungsgericht​s die Übergabe der beschwerdeführenden Person an die ungarischen Behörden im Wege der einstweiligen Anordnung vorläufig untersagt (vgl. Pressemitteilungen Nrn. 55/2024 und 67/2024). Die beschwerdeführende Person wurde jedoch noch vor dem Erlass der einstweiligen Anordnung an die ungarischen Behörden übergeben.Mit ihrer Verfassungsbeschwerde wendet sich die beschwerdeführende Person gegen ihre #Auslieferung. Sie rügt unter anderem eine Verletzung ihres Rechts aus Artikel 4 der Charta der #Grundrecht​e der Europäischen Union (​#GRCh​). Die #Verfassungsbeschwerde hat Erfolg. Das #Kammergericht ist seiner Pflicht zur vollständigen Aufklärung des für die Überstellung erheblichen Sachverhalts nicht hinreichend gerecht geworden. Insbesondere hat es die #Haftumstände, die die beschwerdeführende Person in Ungarn erwarteten, nicht hinreichend aufgeklärt.
