    As an action not a symbol. It’s not on our posters. It’s super common among radical liberals who appropriate the feeling of radicalism that it has thanks to our real world use of it.

      Are you serious? Did you do literally zero research?

      The raised fist has been a major communist, socialist, anarchist, and syndicalist symbol for over a hundred years. It has been the symbol of many ML movements, case in point the Black Power and Black Panther movements, the Yugoslavian and Spanish partisans, the MPLA and South Africans, etc.

      No investigation, no right to speak.
