My submission is maybe the most obvious, Soviet flag over the Reichstag

It can be anything, photograph, painting, meme, screenshot of CCTV footage of a CEO getting domed in the street, etc

I always love how reactionaries point to in this photo the one ussr officer has two watches, because he obviously stole them off a german troop (who were good and heavenly little angel babies following orders).

As opposed to GI Joe, who only took Japanese skulls as souvenirs

One is a clock and the other is a wrist mounted compass he was issued IIRC

Makes sense, but would I fault him for taking a fascist's watch? Nope.

I mean, what does a dead fascist need a watch for anyway?

We don't know for sure but it was likely a wrist mounted compass which were popular in the Red Army.
