    Authleft = Soviet

    But not libleft

    The Sovs weren’t big fan of drugs, tattoos, or dyed hair.

        Some people use the hammer and sickle as a general left symbol rather than explicitly Soviet.

          A libertarian who uses such extremely oppressive symbols is, at best, ignorant.

            the hammer and sickle symbol does not symbolise the USSR even if it is most closely associated with it. unlike the swastika being coopted by Nazi Germany and forever tainted, the hammer and sickle has remained in use by many different factions on the left.
