note from the blogger:
this text is taken directly from the manifesto- nothing has been altered- if you doubt me, read it for yourself here. It comes from Section II, entitled, "proletarians and communists"...http://www.anu.edu.au/polsci/marx/classics/manifesto.html
who sounds like this, and who doesn't? I'll assume you'll think about it...
