While most major institutions of American labor were decidedly anti-fascist in the 1930s, the Jewish Labor Committee (JLC) and Jewish labor unions held a special interest in anti-Nazi organizing.

Poster prikazuje radnika koji se bori protiv zmije koja predstavlja fašizam i hitlerizam, a objavljen je u sklopu kampanje Židovskog radničkog odbora (Jewish Labor Committee) za prikupljanje sredstava za one koji bježe od nacističke Njemačke.

Prvi poznati primjer korištenja zmije kao simbola fašizma u propagandnim posterima dolazi iz Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, gdje je ilustrator Mitchell Loeb dizajnirao poster približno 1934. godine.

Slovenski Laibach su bili u pravu kad su 1985. na natječaj za Dan mladosti podvalili nacistički poster, a žiri ga odabrao kao najbolje rješenje za proslavu rođendana pokojnog "velikog vođe". Hrvatska 2025: Antifa nosi vizual kojeg je pokupila s nacističkog plakata o Židovima

"Just two years ago, when our union ratified a new national contract with UPS, it looked like management finally came to its senses. As part of our deal, the company agreed to start putting A/C and ventilation systems in our trucks. For me and my fellow Teamsters, it felt like our prayers were answered. Finally, we wouldn't have to spend more summers worrying about whether we would make it home safe to our families. UPS is intentionally refusing to live up to the promises they made in our contract. The way they treat us, it's like they forget we're human. While they continue to disrespect us, hundreds of thousands of UPS Teamsters are ready to fight for what we're owed."

A recent survey shows that registered voters oppose Postal Service privatization by an overwhelming 34-point margin. The public is overwhelmingly on our side across partisan, demographic, and geographic lines. #USMailNotforSale

Private shippers have been wanting to get USPS out of parcel delivery for years. We say #HellNo to handing them the keys! The Postal Service is for the people, and we’ll #FightLikeHell to protect the universal service all Americans rely on!

We joined 100+ national and local Jewish organizations to sound the alarm: democracy in the USA is under attack. History makes clear where this leads - and we refuse to stay silent.
