I’d reverse the hammer and sickle. It’ll look more like a “C” and people don’t really know the “proper” way it faces anyway.

It is a sad fact of our times that most Americans do not even recognize the symbol and would have no idea what it signifies.

So far as they would be concerned, it's a funny looking "C".

I see the hammer and sickle on tee-shirts and hats and buttons around NYC probably about once a month. Usually being worn by kids who were not alive before the Soviet Union fell. I always want to stop and ask them about it, but I keep my distance from them just in case stupidity is contagious.

We can thank our “educators” and the publishers who print “so called history books” and many disciplines dropped from the education of our children.

People today would say “What’s the Soviet Union?”
