"The raised fist (also known as the clenched fist) is a salute and logo most often used by left-wing activists, such as: Marxists, anarchists, socialists, communists, pacifists, trade unionists, and black nationalists. The raised fist is usually regarded as an expression of solidarity, strength or defiance."

In fairness, a lot of people and groups use the raised fist. Just because someone hoists a clenched fist doesn't mean they're a CommieLib or other Leftist. When I pump my fist in the air at a Ted Nugent show, I'm not calling out to overthrow the Republic.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

The Days of Rage.

When the SDS became the Weather Underground terrorist group.

Riots staged in Chicago over the Chicago 7 trial.

Funny, I thought that fist thing had to do with gay stuff (Yeah, I know, it’s a pun).

Apologies to those who read this while they were having lunch.
