    Accepting of all sexualities, genders , and races with a dumb fuck hammer and sickle. What alternate reality do you live in where the USSR was accepting of these?

          It’s making fun of people who see hammer and sickle and think only of left-authoritarians, whose methods are the same as those of any other authoritarian, regardless of their goals.

      That’s NOT about URSS anymore, that symbol is the most famous symbol of communism, so it’s used that, but it’s NOT indicating the URSS

        AFAIK the USSR was the first country to implement communism and it exported it to others. The hammer and sickle originates from them.

        So anyone romanticizing those symbols and claiming that this flavor of communism was open to different sexualities, genders, religions, races is extremely ignorant.

        It is liberalism that is accepting them, the communism that we had so far is just the other extreme compared to fascism.

          Fake, Marxism never had these issues to begin with, simply no one implememted marxism, i wouldn’t even say that those other ideologies(stalinism etc etc) are communism but whatever

      Exactly this. Seems like a lot of people romanticizing communism never lived under it.

      In practice it is the other extreme compared to fascism.
