    The symbol originates from Soviet Union, and was adopted by other “socialist” regimes around the world, so I guess describing it as a ‘symbol of authoritarian socialist regimes’ would be more accurate idk

      It is also the symbol of many socialist movements, some of which has some pretty major issues with said socialist regimes around the world, so no, that wouldn’t be more accurate. It’s just a socialist symbol.
