So back to the time when hungary wasn't part of the EU?

The motto of next year's Polish presidency will be Great International Government Association

I so have a slogan for Hungary's next presidency: Hungary's Yuropean Presidency Exults Rednecks

Contact me, Orban! I am committed to licensing this.

We are officially ending Europe to create the new continent of Mega Europe. 1,000,000 times better!

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 22 points 4 months ago (2 children)

What the absolute fuck. How do you look at the MAGA trainwreck and think, that's something we should copy.

Last I checked it's working as intended for Trump

[–] anlumo@feddit.de 9 points 4 months ago

Trump has captured half of the US legislature and has a huge group of people who are willing to die for him in battle (and have done so when trying to take over the Capitol, only increasing their fervour).

Of course this is something totalitarians strive for.

Has any previous presidency of the Council of the European Union had an official slogan?

[–] idegenszavak@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I checked the websites of the recent presidencies, wikipedia has a nice list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_the_Council_of_the_European_Union#List_of_rotations

All of them has a detailed program and a custom logo, some of them just highlight the core points from the program, some of them has slogans, all of the slogans are just big meaningless words:

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

I'm pretty sure that they usually have slogans, which are more or less mottos of what issues they want to focus on.

But I could be wrong.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago

Oh for fuck sake. The US is not a good example to follow!

Make Europe Great Again Make It Now Dreamers.

MEGAMIND.

[–] LANIK2000@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

Again? When exactly was Europe better? When it was in constant war?

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 8 points 4 months ago

Remember, it’s only for six months

I'm thinking maybe a red version of one of these hats with some suitable text to be the official hat of the Hungarian Presidency of the Council of the European Union:

They also appear, in a post two hours later, to have unveiled the official logo of the Hungarian Presidency of the Council of the European Union:

[–] ganksy@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Don't know what to make of that. Rubik's cube? It's a stupid logo

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

goose with a knife in its mouth "What time whas Europe great, and what was it that made it great?"
