So far, two major slogans have emerged from the pensions movement, both recalling the kinds of playful slogans heard in 1968. They were both ubiquitous yesterday. The first is a straightforward pun: "Rêve Générale" (a play on grève générale). The second, printed on stickers and in a tear-out page of l"Humanité, is more enigmatic and droll: "Je Lutte Des Classes" -- "I Class Struggle."

The link is to a straightforward analysis of the two slogans by a non-left French blogger (I think he's a law professor). Not particularly revelatory analysis, but it displays the images of the slogans' graphics. You can also see a few photos of "Je Lutte Des Classes" at yesterday's demonstrations here:
