- ELIMINATION PHASE — qualitatively distinct from HUN-CAMP-001 and HUN-CAMP-002. Previous campaigns used shame/label and chill/surveil logic. This campaign introduces elimination logic: discretionary blacklisting with existential operational consequences and no judicial remedy. FRA statement May 2025 documents concern. Campaign suspended not resolved — SPO infrastructure and LexNGO 2021 remain in place pending Magyar government repeal. Key learning for Playbook: elimination phase campaigns can be interrupted by electoral outcomes but structural enablers (SPO, legal architecture) survive regime change unless actively dismantled. Monitor for dismantling signals as validation of democratic restoration analysis.
