Communist manifesto Quote by Kurt Vonnegut

“Some of you might go out and kill Communists, but that is no longer a fashionable thing to do. And you wouldn’t be killing real Communists anyway. This country has fulfilled more of the requirements of the Communist Manifesto than any avowedly Communist nation ever did. Maybe we’re the Communists.” quote by Kurt Vonnegut — Download Open image
