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 ๐Ÿ˜‘

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.

The DPRK hammer and sickle, I love the addition of the calligraphy brush.

Transhammer gendersickle

Which would also make a great band name.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago

I like the one with the paintbrush intersected between the hammer and sickle. It speaks of an even wider and more intersectional solidarity that banishes some of the crude reductionist lumpenprole shit that can derail movements.

Red star is bold & classic

A girl once saw me wearing a Fahrenheit 451 pin badge and asked if it was a communist symbol (in her defense she was sitting quite a bit away and had never heard of the book so it just looked like a red, orange and yellow symbol to her with a number on it) so now thats my favourite communist symbol

This made me look up Bradbury, and found this gem lol:

In a 1994 interview, Bradbury cited political correctness as an allegory for the censorship in the book, calling it "the real enemy these days" and labelling it as "thought control and freedom of speech control."

Truly a classic

[-] SexMachineStalin@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

I really like the SACP's black star with the red and gold trim. There's like a hundred renditions of it but the main one they use, the hammer and sickle is just too skinny IMO.

For some reason, the Communist Party of Venezuela's symbol is a rooster, and think it's kinda cute
