Yes, I know that the flag have anti imperialist history that predates Batista's mafia state, but usually AES states would pick something much more overtly AES-sy instead of just settling with the old republican flag.

But by using the old flag, Cuba hilariously robbed the ability of gusanos to differentiate themselves from the existing revolutionary state. No dumbass "this is the real Cuban flag" meme because it's the same 🇨🇺 , no way for libs to include flag in their screen name because then they'll be supporting the Cuban revolution 🇨🇺, no way for alt history dork to make "world if neoliberalism win forever" without showing stalwart Cuba 🇨🇺.

    Ngl I kinda wish one of the AES countries add hamsic to their flag. :ussr-cry:

    Flying that stuff over countries where the symbol is banned would be so funny.

      Transnistria still has it on their flag lol. Also, not the country’s flag but the CPC flag does get flown quite a lot in China.
