also, has hungary built out renewables during orban tenure? that would help a fair bit in any scenario

article says that hungarian dependence on russian oil went from sixty-ish% to almost 100% after 2022, and many countries started sourcing oil elsewhere, meaning they used to have other sources, but dropped them for some reason. this can be restarted

on top of druzhba, there is an oil pipeline called adria from croatian coast in omisalj that goes among other places to hungary. turkstream is for gas, but it's not the only source for the grid, and there are lng ports on the adriatic coast, and all these pipelines also go to groningen gas field and norwegian shore and other places https://www.entsog.eu/sites/default/files/2018-10/ENTSOG_CAP_MAY2015_A0FORMAT.pdf

Yeah there are only so many ways to get it going, you don't hear about these that don't figure it out because cops bust them making them look like clowns and nobody wants to get associated with them afterwards

there is also a barrier between step 2 and 3, because sometimes news like that are suppressed. american school shootings get that treatment sometimes, not to mention all the info filtering at facebook and friends. this is why sympathetic media is an important bit to have in advance. there's also this bit where any serious insurgency needs money and it looks like what they got didn't work out

that southern police chief was per blogpost Laurie Pritchett and this kind of thinking is also what makes COIN tick. worry not, Hegseth declared it all woke nonsense

hungary already imports 1.3GW on average

at minimum that 40% of non-russian oil supply to hungary didn't evaporate overnight, and there was supply from other places secured by other countries (norway will make a killing on this all)

microwave datalinks might have beamwidths of perhaps fraction of degree, but it's still not much

eliezer misses that (as used in decolonization/civil rights era) nonviolence is effectively a sophisticated propaganda strategy that takes existing injustices and violence and uses it to bait opponent into attacking you, all while your own people take photos and show to entire world carefully crafted messaging that appeals to general public conscience. the messaging part is extremely important in this. there's no fucking way this could work for him because his cause is comprehensible only to those who already buy his cult messaging as ground truth. he's in just for the moral superiority of being nonviolent. he's never gonna get it because comprehending it requires touching grass

there is empirical series of materials sorted from which one is most likely to lose vs gain electrons, but what exactly happens is one of unsolved problems in physics
