In Budapest, a massive crowd gathered to show their support for Pride and equality, despite the government's attempts to stop them. The event was a big deal, with people from all over Hungary and even other countries joining in. The government had tried to ban the march, but the mayor of Budapest found a way around it by making it a city event instead. Many people came to show they disagree with the government's new law that targets the LGBTQ+ community. The law makes it illegal to talk about or show support for homosexuality around kids. This made a lot of people upset, and they wanted to show their support for equality and freedom. The crowd was huge, with some estimating up to 200, 000 people. This was a big deal because it showed that many people in Hungary support Pride and equal rights. The government had warned that people could face legal consequences for attending, but that didn't stop the crowd.
Some people came with their kids, wanting to show them what it means to stand up for what you believe in. Others came because they wanted to show support for their friends and family who are part of the LGBTQ+ community. The mood was happy and determined, with people waving flags and holding signs. The government had also talked about using facial recognition technology to identify people at the event and fine them. This made some people nervous, but the big crowd made others feel safe. The event was also seen as a way to stand up to the government, which has been criticized for limiting democratic freedoms. The government's actions were seen by some as a way to distract from other issues and rally support before an upcoming election. The Pride march became a symbol of resistance and a way to show that many people in Hungary support equality and freedom.
