My recent favorite from the Daily Worker in 1924 is this,
"One particularly loathsome example of that type [renegade radical] is
X.Y.Physically he is a big chunk of anamated protoplasm, who wears a 22
inch
collar and a 6 1/2 inch hat.The brain capacity of a moron with the neck of
a
gorilla. The political pus that flows from the social excrescence of X.Y
finds it's way into the organs of big business."
