here: No matter what substantive issue I’m engaging on, whether it’s Hungary’s continued dependence upon Vladimir Putin for its energy supply despite intensive efforts to encourage them to diversify or the independence of the judiciary in Hungary, the way that the Hungarian government tries to respond and publicly contextualize our critique is by making it somehow about woke, liberal, Democratic activists. I remember my very first meeting with a senior Hungarian official, a really nice guy, but he began the meeting by saying, Ambassador, I know that you want to speak to us about L.G.B.T.Q. issues and gender ideology. And I actually had to interrupt the guy and say, No, actually, I want to speak to you about your relationship with Vladimir Putin. So I think that the language that they used was to encode the critique in a frame of, “This is L.G.B.T.Q.” — in their words — “ideology infecting our society,” even if what was generating the legitimate political concern didn’t have much to do with L.G.B.T.Q. issues at all.
