I need something that can help me tell if a house guest has communist brainworms, but doesn't signal anything to the uninfected. I was thinking something like a print of one of the Diego Rivera murals where Lenin is lurking in the background. I need some more ideas. It could be music, some choice phrases, some prominently displayed literature, etc. But it has to only be meaningful or interesting to the already initiated.

Edit: My wife is pretty sure that a normal American does not know what Lenin looks like. However, a portrait of Lenin won't work as a shiboleth if I'm asked to explain who he is.

    I think if your workplace is a site of acute class struggle then you can be more direct in your propaganda.

    I've been there, and frank amd honest organizing was easy. Where I'm at now there's no class consciousness at all. I don't know if it's the work environment, regional culture, or the cumulative impact of nationalist propaganda.
