Could you kindly explain how it represents hate?
It has been and continues to be the symbol of regimes that have oppressed and tried to destroy a number of indigenous cultures in Eastern Europe and Asia
Does that mean nearly every European flag and the US and Canadian flags are hate symbols in your perspective?
Sort of, especially the US flag bc of how it's continued to be used, but not to the same degree, because they represent nations instead of a specific hateful ideology. The Confederate flag, on the other hand, is 100% a hate symbol.
So would I be understanding correctly that to you, socialism itself is a hateful ideology, and therefore the hammer and sickle is a hate symbol?
