The DDR goes hard, but also a fan of Angola, despite them not being (as) communist anymore. Really hits that decolonial message.

I've always really liked this flag aesthetically, just wish it was the flag of a communist country instead of a liberal one that lives on exporting fossil fuels 😑

They have their problems (mostly due to the civil war and then the SU's collapse), but there's still Communists and Socialist factions in the MPLA, and hopefully with them pivoting to China and the economy finally stabilising we can see some progress there. I like to think they're trying in good faith.

They have recently improved their record of LGBT rights which is a clear positive as well.
