Was I just stupid kid in the Midwest wrapped up in propaganda and a family history? How could I not fucking see what really was going on and what we do to the people of the countries we go to? Everything I wanted to be as a kid was based on fucking lies and the profits of the military industrial complex. What the fuck was the point of my deployments if not to oppress others? How can people fucking support these wars and invasions? In the name of protecting our freedoms while stripping away others? I fucking hate myself and wish I could take it away, but without it I wouldn’t be a communist and I wouldn’t have experience colonialism and imperialism first hand on the side of the oppressors. Fucking fuck.
We have to remember where we came from. I like the idea of a star, hammer and sickle, with partly a cog and wheat around them.
Eh, it should associate with work for current workers, it’s always about the future, not the past. red flag is universal historical symbol of labor (well, ahem, usa), that’s the through line to history, symbols are for recognition of what you represent: workers tools show working class unity as it exists. :juche-WPK: adapted sickle for their peasants for example :GDR-emblem: as well
I love the GDR symbol. And you’re correct. It should be for the current times and future, I’m just a sucker for nostalgia. There’s plenty of room for creativity
