Then just make a new symbol, the sickle is not as representative today as it used to be when it was invented anyways, since agriculture is more industrialised now, at least in Finland.

I'm sympathetic to the Juche symbol as well.

They can't ban stars and the color red, lmao. So long as those are around they'll be good.

Finland to declare war on space

They can ban anything they want. The cops and judges enforcing the law instinctively knows who to target and who to ignore.

Worst comes to worst they can still wave the flag of AES countries, at that point banning even those would start to have its consequences. It's a losing battle by the bourgeois state, because socialism isn't tied to specific symbols and flag waving, we can adapt.

The problem is that they’ll just ban the new symbol if it gains enough traction

Of course, but that's dialectics for you. There is no eternally solved problem with no negative effects.

Based.

I fucking love this symbol.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've seen that symbol before, but I can't remember where or when

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

It's from Disco Elysium.
