"Nobody talks about how Hitler, Stalin, Tito, Trotsky, and Freud lived in the same section of Vienna simultaneously in 1913. I feel like you could do something very funny with that"

"When I first heard that Trotsky was assassinated with an ice pick I didn't know what an ice pick was so I thought it meant icicle, meaning I thought some fucker stabbed him with an icicle and it melted away the evidence"

"Another highlight would be Felix Dzerzhinsky straight up fucking dying of a heart attack moments after delivering a 2 hour long speech condemning the opposition members. Also Trotsky having an economics textbook thrown at him. Kino."
