Hungary Bans Transgenderism and LGBTQ Propaganda for Minors.

Hungary's 2021 "Child Protection Law" has prompted legal proceedings from the European Commission and more than a dozen EU countries, who see the law as discriminatory and anti-LGBTQ. The law would ban content that "promotes or portrays" what it refers to as "divergence from self-identity corresponding to sex at birth, sex change or homosexuality" to minors. Balazs Orban, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's Political Director, defended the law, saying nearly 4 million Hungarians voted in favor of it and sent a clear message that they wanted to "ban transgenderism and LGBTQ propaganda for minors."
