This third instalment of the who’s who pictorial series will examine persons and organizations displaying the Bolshevik salute (also known as the Communist clenched fist). For a thorough study of this salute, see Texe Marrs’ article Blood Red—red stars, clenched fists, hammers and sickles, and other symbols of Communist murderers and thugs. Briefly speaking, the Bolshevik salute symbolizes violence and loyalty to the Satanic world revolution to dethrone Christ and His saints. Sometimes, secret Communists (controlled opposition) will reveal their loyalty only covertly, through displaying the Bolshevik salute. They often obscure its meaning by masking it under vague notions of “solidarity. Here we go!

How convenient that the Bolshevik salute doubles as the black supremacism salute. In the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC, September 29, 2016, President Barack Obama gives the “Black Power” salute, as Josh Brunais, a U.S. Paralympic Soccer player, presents a custom surfboard to him.

GERMANY – JUNE 13: Decorative cover from Ruhmesblatter der technik (The glorious chapters of technology) by the engineer Franz Maria Feldhaus (1874-1959) published in Leipzig by Friedrich Brandstetter in 1910. The development of publishers’ book bindings in the late nineteenth century led to a huge increase of bright, decorative covers for popular science and technology books. Most were unsigned by artists employed by the publishers, not by the authors. This visually arresting binding has a strong symbolic meaning. A hand holding an iron hammer erupts from an industrial landscape; technology is portrayed as all-conquering. (Photo by SSPL/Getty Images)

I regularly watch O’Connell’s videos. Completely overlooked that fist in the Talpiot Talk logo. What are your thoughts on Brendon? He seems to do good work on Israeli subversion of Western critical infrastructure, and also calling out controlled opposition.
