The state must be allowed to become all powerful and all seeing in order to achieve the true glorious cause of establishing a Communist paradise, and if necessary we must be prepared to use any and all methods to obliterate the bourgeoisie world.

| Message | Everything necessary must be done to protect the worker's state from the Capitalist disease Comrade. Similarly, Ikradon must be prepared to use any and every form of weapon to destroy the bourgeoisie capitalist world and establish the domination of the Proletariat forever. Those who cannot contribute to the worker's paradise we shall establish do not deserve the support of the state. They must be removed so as to prevent them impeding the progress of the Proletariat. |
