Why don't communist symbols cause the same outrage as Nazi symbols?

Quote from acronym:

The nazis lost a major war, consequently their deeds were exposed by occupying powers-with a point to prove.

The soviets didnt lose a major war, so practically none of the proof required has been examined independently, certainly not with the prejudice of of an occupying force-plus, multiple generations have grown up with the hammer and sickle, not knowing anything else, clearly a sentimental attachement has occured at a national level that could only have occured with the swastika, had it been around longer.

In short, the continuum of government precludes the hammer and sickle being associated with a single person, unlike the swastika.

The fact that Che Guevera t-shirts probably produce more global capitalist income than all of cuba, must be irksome to the die hards.

Agree. A multinational corporation is a totalitarian system.
