They actually are the symbols of the workers and do belong to the descriptions.
It’s just that many bad actors have and are trying to steal the symbols, such as the Soviet Union and China. Those have no correlation with leftism but people associate them to the symbols

I didn’t say against that. The fascist powers have made their mark on the symbols that is true. As I said, it is what people associate.
Do swastikas, hammers, stars etc. have positive meanings originally? Yes
Have fascist dictatorships ussd those symbols with horrible atrocities in the past and even today? Yes
Do people generally associate the latter? Yes

Yes you are reiterating my point
Symbols are just part of language, which evolves. Drop “fag” in a conversation in the uk and nobody bats an eye. Do it in the US, however…
