Karl Marx was a advocate of mass state sponsored violence. My report on the Communist Manifesto was in response to an debate I had with a acquaintance on whether Communism is as bad as Fascism. I contend that it is. Upon reading it I have discovered that The Communist Manifesto is certainly a call to violence though not explicit it is very much implied. As none of its tennats could be adopted without violent revolution "Which Marx is on record as being supportive of."
