Budapest, Hungary

reviewed by BlackChocolate

In 1873 the towns of Buda and Obuda merged with Pest to create Budapest, the 6th largest city in the European Union. Budapest has an approximate population of 1.7 million and occupies both sides of the Danube River. During WWII nearly 1/3 of Budapest Jewish population died under Nazi persecution, and the city itself was severely damaged during the Soviet siege in 1947.

Budapest, Hungary 1

I suggest coming to take in the views along the Danube in a few hundred years after the Hungarians have died out due to a declining birthrate.
I've been living for two years in a town outside Budapest and still, every time I get on the bus people stare at me like they want me dead. Its unbelievable. As a consumer I'm invariably faced with suspicion and even stone cold hatred for no reason at all--it's completely irrational. I'm so sick of it! What is wrong with these people???
Hungarians are only civil to an outsider if they "know you" as a neighbor or you were introduced by a mutual friend. Don't be fooled--they would be spitting on you if they weren't constrained by association.
Sorry, this is not a culture worthy of respect and understanding like other cultures of Europe and the world. In this regard it is exceptional.
I'm tired of hearing the lament that your tragic history is to account for how fu**ed up you are. There are countless other places in the world that have been ravaged over the years, more recently and much more severely than Hungary, and yet there isnt the fear and despair in countryX that you find here.
There is a pessimistic mindset passed on from generation to generation that has had a corrosive degenerate effect on the soul of this nation. The accumulation of centuries of spiritual pollution that is now near impossible to reverse. If Hungary doesn't snap out of it soon the rising powers of Asia will turn this country into a ghetto and put an end to this culture, in a way that the Hungarians have failed to do to their Gypsy and Jewish communities. Many of you have already commented on the weak moral character of most Hungarians so I won't belabor the point. Anyone with half a brain or any ideals has already gone elsewhere. Zero stars for this miserable people and their deadend culture.
Negative, depressed, bitter Magyars: I am not the cause of your suffering! I'm only here for the abuse until I can get out, so drop dead! Drop dead you a***hole Magyars! Drop dead you f***ing scum!

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!!! I grew up in the States and met my wonderful husband there- he is Hungarian. He has lived in the States for only 4 years and we decided to live in Hungary, since he kept telling me how beautiful it was...HA! When we got here, my HUNGARIAN husband simply wishes he never came back. He had forgotten how dirty and smoggy and disgusting it was. People here are very unfriendly and hateful....even other hungarians I have spoken to wishes to get the heck out of there own country! WE will not stay here for long, we plan to move soon - thank goodness!
Oh....and for all you haters out there...Americans are not all fat, I for instance only weight 100lbs...for Hungarian women ,it may be rare that they are obese , BUT I guarantee they look atleast 5-10 yrs older than their real age.....so in Hungary 30 is the new 40...
