Hungary is an outlier not the norm.
EU is doing fine in general, out of 27 countries obviously there will be problems in some of them.
Hungary may very well be on the way to a better path by next election. Orban thought he was clever playing both sides, but I think that game is over.

"Entire rest of the world" is of course an exaggeration, just look at Russia. But overall if it wasn't for Russia and USA we would be doing pretty well in the world right now.

The far right is on the rise in nearly every European country that it hasn't already conquered, and even the establishment parties in many countries are dismantling rights, increasing inequality and decreasing the quality of public services as if they can't wait for a coalition with a far right party.

Even on other continents, many countries have seen a rise of the far right in recent years, e.g. Japan, India, Afghanistan, Argentina.
