@fulelo That was an interesting read. I wonder how many more like the Šapošnikovs are out there.

@alcinoe aplenty, likely. Especially in countries that made it comfortable and easy in the early 90ies, e.g. Cz and SL - Hungary on the other hand with its incomprehensible language etc was harder to crack - up until a very Kremlin-friendly govt took over...

@fulelo There were a couple living a few blocks from me. Nobody had a clue. I am sure that there are others. Between the spies and the propaganda machine, we've let Russia infiltrate our democracies. It's hard to see Slovakia and Hungary go down that ugly path. I'm just hoping that we don't.

@alcinoe it feels it is too late for many countries

@fulelo Haha, "incomprehensible language." Funny coming from you.

@alcinoe I always advice volunteers to turn their attention to less cryptic languages when they turn their attention to Hungarian - other than you are born with it it is a hard nut to crack...

@alcinoe not impossible though. Remembering a course mate at uni who was actually studying Hungarian and could come up with some real Hungarian words (historically originated in Transylvania) I never heard of and couldn't make sense of 😀
