What is described has no correlation with the symbols.
They actually are the symbols of the workers and do belong to the descriptions.
It’s just that many bad actors have and are trying to steal the symbols, such as the Soviet Union and China. Those have no correlation with leftism but people associate them to the symbols
I’m usually brigaded by fascist-minded and reactionary accounts
Not allowed to call out dictatorships
Same response as a “Swastika is just a sun symbol”
A symbol can change meaning depending on history. Hammer and sickle is the symbol of oppression, suffering, dictatorship, imperialism and inequality, and it’s meaning is influenced by the actions of soviet union and china.
I didn’t say against that. The fascist powers have made their mark on the symbols that is true. As I said, it is what people associate.
Do swastikas, hammers, stars etc. have positive meanings originally? Yes
Have fascist dictatorships ussd those symbols with horrible atrocities in the past and even today? Yes
Do people generally associate the latter? Yes
