Those things that you mention are all features of the Orban regime in Hungary, classed as illiberal democracy. Essentially control of the press, making it hard for opposition parties, gerrymandering etc. Illiberal democracy - Wikipedia share.google/gjSBxXF2EKZ2...

Yes, we started from Orban and we’ve slipped from it. Easy fixes would only get us back to illiberal democracy. And it feels like we constantly bargain to let things get partly worse because people and institutions don’t want to do the work, or don’t have the capacity after years of deprivation
