[spectre] on Hungary

[Andreas Broeckmann]

janos,

it is weird to read this, but isn't it clear that these things are 
happening? and isn't the really worrying thing that hungarians have 
voted for fidesz (party, leader, and candidates) despite the likelihood 
of this kind of manipulation of public opinion?

i don't want to sound fatalistic, but the worrying thing is that while 
telling the truth is still important, it does not seem to make much of a 
difference...

ok, yes, we have to keep on telling the truth, searching, telling...

excuse the fatalistic glitch.

regards,
-a
