Vienna spent more than €650,000 of public money on its Pride Parade this year, according to Magyar Nemzet, which was in town to capture all those present and their messaging.
Calling it a platform for left-wing provocation, anti-Christian hatred, corporate marketing, obscenity and political hypocrisy, the portal also cited some data from Austrian press, specifically that Austria’s largest LGBTQI advocacy group, HOSI (Homosexuellen Initiative Wien), which organizes the Pride Parade every year, received more than €1.5 million in funding from the city of Vienna between 2020 and 2025. This year, the group had a huge bus leading the parade.
Joining the march was the queer feminist group “Furia,” which also held a demonstration in the city center featuring an image of a male-female hybrid carrying a small man holding an Austrian flag and a cross the she-he apparently had crushed.
Organizers and participants of Vienna Pride described themselves as intersectional, anti-capitalist, and anti-imperialist, writes Magyar Nemzet, with flags of the far-left extremist Antifa clearly present.
One speaker criticized the Pride Parade, according to Magyar Nemzet, precisely because it had become too “commercial” and instead demanded a more radical left-wing presence. The rhyme “Alerta, alterta, antifascista!” heard during the march is a clear reference to the slogan of the international Antifa movement.
Members of “Queers for Palestine” were also present, as well as the Revolutionary Communist Party of Vienna, which openly promotes communist, Marxist ideology. Then there were the normal political parties and groups such as the Social Democrats (SPÖ), the Greens, and the Anti-Discrimination Office.
Alongside the anti-capitalists were dozens of large political parties, companies and organizations, including the social democratic party (SPÖ), the Greens, the Anti-Discrimination Office, Wien Energie, ÖBB, Nivea, got2b, Spar’s S-Budget brand, the Austrian Post, and the Wiener Städtische insurance company. This latter made a promotional video with an organization that provides digital counseling to young people who think they may be gay.
The right-wing Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) sharply criticized the timing and tone of the pride march, especially in light of the fact that Austria is currently mourning the 10 victims of the Graz school massacre.
Lawyer and former government spokesperson Alexandra Szentkirályi was in Vienna for the parade as well.
“We went to Pride in Vienna to see exactly what they want to bring to the children on the streets of Budapest. What we saw there was so brutal that we can only share the pictures on the Fidesz Budapest page, where only people over 18 can see them – link in comments,” she posted on Facebook.
The content linked via the other Facebook account appears to be currently offline, but Szentkirályi commented on some of the sights on display. “Sexual parades of adults in front of children have no place on the open street,” she wrote.
“How can they want to show this to children? What kind of grown man wants to get naked in front of children? This has no place in Budapest. We Hungarians do not ask for this,” Szentkirályi closed her post.
