Rick and Morty, and Whatever: What Is It About?

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/May 25, 2020 /Leave a comment

No, Rick and Morty is not liberal. Neither is it anything else. But it opens interdimensional portals in the static minds, and without us realizing it cajoles us into critical introspection. The show is great because it anticipates expectations, and chucks them in a bin, lights it on fire, and moves on.

The “You-Know-What”: How Reality Changes

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/May 24, 2020May 25, 2020 /Leave a comment

The “you-know-what” brings out the worst in governments. It is one of the rare occasions that the military is used domestically. In some countries, it oversees the operation of strategic institutions and businesses.

Rock On! Why Politicians Should Be More Edgy

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/May 23, 2020May 25, 2020 /Leave a comment

Rock and roll was always about rebellion against the stale status quo. It often cried for liberty, and the rights of the individuals rather than the “establishment”. Dee Sneider came out of the hearing as the winner.

How We Wash Our Hands: When Epidemic Trumps Our Rights

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/April 2, 2020April 2, 2020 /Leave a comment

Do you know how to do it? You know, a corpulent guy, that politician or whomever, demonstrated it on TV. Just turn the tap on. No, don’t worry, they promised us they are reducing the water price. They even took over that company that billed us.

James Bond Lived Only Once: Films That Fail to Take a Political Stance

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/February 19, 2020February 19, 2020 /Leave a comment

Take James Bond for instance. Ever since the series’ soft reboot in 2006 with Casino Royale, there is not a single enemy country in the movies, despite the fact that Russia upped its game in manipulating the internal politics of Western countries, and China sugarcoating its increasingly Orwellian dystopia.

Day of Dishonor: Hungary’s Nazi Past Fails to Pass

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/February 18, 2020February 18, 2020 /Leave a comment

Hungary is loth to leave its past behind, with radicals reemerging annually to celebrate the historic bloodshed of WW2. Athough the news was awash with the marching boots of neo-Nazis in Hungary, there is another story behind the black uniforms parading through the streets of Budapest.

Bye-Bye Britain

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/February 17, 2020February 18, 2020 /Leave a comment

Brexit, at a cursory glance, is a road forward, set by English drunkards in power. Having sobered up from the delirium of near 4 years of Brexit, we should ask ourselves: What is wrong with that?

Wake-Up Call for Woke Corporations

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/October 29, 2019October 29, 2019 /Leave a comment

Mark Zuckeberg appeared before U.S. representatives, again. He sat alone at an austere table, being looked down on by the mighty politicians from their raised podium. Yet, the founder of Facebook yields more power than all those politicians combined.

Antisemitism in Hungary: Left, Right, Center

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/October 28, 2019October 28, 2019 /Leave a comment

Hungary held its municipal elections on October 13, 2019. Although the opposition and the regnant Fidesz party applied starkly different communication strategies, one topic featured in both campaigns: antisemitism.

Liberalism’s Pyrrhic Victory

Mate Hajba and Free Market Foundation/October 28, 2019 /Leave a comment

Liberalism won, no doubt about it. The world is migrating towards more freedom, more equality, and as a result less poverty and war. Nazi Germany was defeated in World War II and the Soviet Union imploded unders its horrid lies. Why don’t we feel like victors then?
