    I read somewhere there’s only like 3000ish billionaires worldwide. It could be done before lunch.

    A classic anti-Semitic inflammatory image. Israel and Jews are portrayed as an octopus. Capitalism is equated with “world Jewry”. The “SS” in Class is depicted like the “SS” rune, the “Schutzstaffel” in the “Third Reich”.

      Is your suggestion that the OG Nazis made a prank submission to that magazine or something? Why would they do that? Remember that they hated communists, socialists and trade unionists so it’s not like they would have been secretly involved with the editors of that magazine.

      Bro, this has nothing to do with nazis. Don’t sully a good message with your uninformed nonsense. This drawing was published in One Big Union Monthly in May of 1938, a publication of the Industrial Workers of the World union.

      Here is the issue: https://files.libcom.org/files/OBUMmay1938.pdf

        Thank you for the background information. I didn’t know where the drawing was published. But that doesn’t change my opinion. The symbolism is clear. It would be interesting to have a historian research who the author of the drawing is and find out more about this person. I wouldn’t rule out the possibility that it was influenced by National Socialist ideas from the outset.

          FWIW, it took me about 20-30 minutes to find the original publication, issue, publisher, etc. Be the content you want to see on the internet. You keep claiming this is nazi-inspired, yet I see no proof. I would love to change my tune on this drawing, if you sleuthed out the proof.

          …just look how different the letter „S“ is written in the word „class“ and in other words.

            So is your whole argument that two of the Ss look vaguely like the Nazi SS runes? Or do you have anything to support your claim?

              The theme of an octopus grasping the world is textbook anti-Semitic symbolism. https://antisemitism.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Antisemitic-imagery-May-2020.pdf

                Good point, I did miss the octopus comment.

                As to the rest, I’m sorry to say I lost interest, thank you for linking the pdf though.
