      I think there might be something to this. Like rightwingers used to call everything COMMUNIST DISSENT, so even people who are not communists start calling themselves COMMUNIST DISSENTERS to piss off rightwingers. And then maybe they get to wondering about communist dissent a lil, and maybe they read the Manifesto. Y'know, just for the bit... soviet-hmm
