Telegraph receipt and implementation.

Few people here have known what it means to live in absolute terror for yourself, your spouse, children, friends, relatives etc. in the name of a 'workers paradise'. You might as well post a Childs poem in Finnish, accompanied by abstract art. Even fewer understand or accept that no "communist" regime has ever existed without effectively developing and wielding that terror as its best tool.
