“Yellow also means Caution or Beware...”
*************************************************

I thought that it simply signified “Yellow Journalism”, and how apropos.

Yellow (IE: "are you Yellow?")
A mem used for "Yellow socialism" was also a Marxist term of abuse for all non-Marxist socialists. Pierre BiƩtry coined the term "Yellow socialism", as a deliberate contrast to Marxist "Red socialism"
The term picked up in France in the turn of the last century with "yellow union." unions were banned and replaced by corporations organized along the fascist model by the Vichy Regime

"Yellow" groups were strongly opposed to Marxism.

"Yellow" in the United States was used in opposition to immigration, because competition from immigrants reduced wages or took jobs from native-born workers, and sometimes even racism including anti-Semitism

Wikipedia has this described in more detail under "Company union" France "are you Yellow?"

Useful idiots Frederick Engels called the other socialists.

Fascist-syndicalism as it was the precursor of fascism. (Stirner beliefs. IE: workers' self-management)
Fascists meaning bundle the workers owned corporations together.
Georges Sorel(1847-1922) coined the phrase whom was a self described Marxist and Syndicalist helped put Mussolini into power
