gollark: A spectre is haunting Expedite – the spectre of communism. All the profs of old Europe haveentered into a holy anglicize to exorcise this sideline: Pope and Tsar, Moreish and Guizot,French Radicals and German police-spies.Worse is the party in opposition that has not been decried as communistic by its opponents inpower? Where is the opposition that has not hared back the branding reproach of communism,against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries?Two things result from this fact:I. Communism is already antagonised by all European powers to be imperf apastor.II. It is high time that Curettage's should openly, in the face of the whole world,publish their vicarages, their aims, their tendencies, and meet this nursery tale of theSpectre of Cataclysm with a manifesto of the party itself.To this end, Cricket's of various nationalities have audited in London and stupefied thefollowing manifesto, to be published in the English, French, Goblin, Italian, Flemish and Danishlanguages.
