The poster for the General Strike Illinois effort features three hands each raising a wrench, an ax, and a paintbrush. They are all blue with their respective tools in black. The seal of the group is one red hand holding the wrench.

🚩🇺🇸Solidarity with the Workers at the Chicago History Museum who hold their union election today! One Voice growing! 🚩🇺🇸 @chicagomuseum @chicagohistorypod @chicagosocialistalternative @chicagocommunists
The pic shows the front of the Chicago History Museum - a glass rounded front with a large display of the Chicago flag: two blur stripes symbolizing the lake and river, three white stripes symbolizing the city’s west, north, and south sides. Four red stars are centered, symbolizing Fort Dearborn (the original non-native settlement), the 1871 Fire, and the two worlds Fairs (1893 & 1933)

🚩🇮🇹89 yrs ago today: Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937), cofounder of the Italian Communist Party, died in a Fascist prison, having served half of a 20-yr sentence to “silence that brain.”
(It didn’t, btw!)🚩🇮🇹

A colorized image of Gramsci with a green background. He wears a dark suit, white shirt, black vest and tie. He has wire glasses and a thick crop of dark hair.

Confirmed: ICE agents are at O’Hare International Airport as of this morning. Hmm, $ to pay ICE for TSA, but no $ to pay TSA for TSA - curiouser and curiouser by the day! 🚩🇺🇸❤️ Stay strong, Chicago! @chicagosocialistalternative @chicago @speakermjohnson

So when an ICE officer tells you to get out of the car, you’re supposed to get out of the car. What are you supposed to do when a judge tells you to release the Epstein Files?

88 yrs ago today, Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) died in fascist imprisonment, begun in 1926. A co-founder of the PCI, he and other communists and socialists became the first bulwarks against fascism. @chicagosocialistalternative @chicagocommunists @casagramsci @centrogramsci @af_gramsci
The verticle tombstone of Gramsci - it’s an off-white stone with his last name carved. There’s a square stone box at the foot of the upright stone with his full name and birth/death dates inscribed.

100 yrs ago today, Italy began a 21-yr election ban (1925-1946). Mussolini began mass arrests of socialists & communists. We are not living in a vacuum, People - the Felon’s admin knows what it’s doing. “No need for elections.” (2024). We are here. 🚩🇺🇸 @chicagosocialistalternative @chicagocommunists
Mussolini is pictured on the left with a bandaged nose after an alleged 1926 assassination attempt; on the right, Trump stares ahead with the tampon on his ear after the 2024 alleged shooting.

Klemperer’s book is hauntingly relevant. #magaproud🇺🇸🇺🇸 #chicagosocialistalternative
An A I image combining half of Hitler’s face and half of the Felon’s face onto the Felon’s body. A quote from a German author in 1946: “What does a perfect group of followers do? It doesn’t think and it doesn’t even feel anymore - it follows.” The book is called The Language of the Third Reich.
