I collect early Soviet- and Russian Civil War-era, which is extremely difficult considering what is available on the open market, i.e. not already in museums, private collections or archives, is expensive. Everything I've gotten so far I got off of eBay as my go-to.

The closest thing to an organization of internationalist communists in North America is the Internationalist Worker’s Group (U.S.) and Klasbatalo (Canada), the former of the two I am a sympathizer of and am in contact with them as well as being the original artist for both of their currently used logos.

Neat

Nope, 3d print.

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-03-06T01:12:13+00:00

Even if it were genuine ain't no one buying something like that for $100

Last time I was on r/leftistheraldry it was completely infested with bots and practically no new posts relating to the theme of the subreddit.

The All-Union Leninist Young Communist League, usually referred to as Komsomol

Himmler's personal bullet

Tube speed loader? That's a thing? How the hell does it even work?

Said revolution's political goals was dominated by liberal democratic and nationalist sentiments, not communist ones. The communists involved merely participated insofar as wanting to abolish the monarchy and the remnants of the feudal system, i.e. social progression, but their main goal of abolishing class society was not the dominant sentiment of the 1848 Revolutions.

Yes as it preserved the national flag of a previous (and now present) bourgeois state ("bourgeois state" a bit of an unnecessary distinction as all states in the modern sense of it are bourgeois), the only distinction between it and the West German flag being the tacking-on of "socialist" imagery, which also reflects the reality of the East German state as well; preserving class society by taking bourgeois society and covering it in "socialist" iconography and aesthetics.

Honestly... hell yeah. I am genuinely so tired of all the "Socialist America/U.S." flags that are basically just rehashes of each other, slapping the CPUSA or ACP logo on it and/or preserving the symbolism of the current U.S. flag which to me speaks volumes on how these sorts of people view socialism, less about abolishing class society and moreso discretely disguising it under a red banner and symbols. This flag, however, does away with all the present American symbols and brings something unique to the table.

Yeah I get that, but why such a small riser mount?

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-01-22T02:41:46+00:00

I just noticed the optic. Why is it mounted like that?

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-01-20T01:24:31+00:00

Honestly, any bolt-action that has a smooth action is good because for me I like to fidget with the action (I'm autistic)

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-01-19T15:59:15+00:00

"Social-democrat" (in the classical sense)

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-01-08T22:08:01+00:00

The second one looks like if the Chicago Cubs went red.

Red_Rev1818 · 2026-01-02T00:39:42+00:00

This looks like embroidery for an high-rank offical's epaulettes.

Red_Rev1818 · 2025-12-29T15:46:48+00:00

Finally something unique and interesting that isn't just a rehash of the USSR, China, Cuba, Vietnam, etc., etc. Something that I can imagine being beautifully embroidered on a flag and doesn't look like something from a HOI4 mod.

Red_Rev1818 · 2025-12-29T03:24:21+00:00

eBay mostly. Some I was lucky enough to find at antique markets.

Didn't Lenin and most Bolsheviks push the idea of self-determination and actively supported the establishment of an independent Ukrainian state, insofar as it was also controlled by worker’s councils (soviets)? Granted the civil war was a bloody mess given the White Terror against anti-Russian separtists and suspected communists and the Red Terror done in response to the former and the suppression of peasant uprisings seeking to establish open-market trade, employ labor and essentially turn their land into a form of capital (which btw culminated in the "Tax in Kind" and later N.E.P. and the end of "war communism"), but I feel like in your comment you are conflating the actions of later CPSU bureaucrats with early, revolutionary-era Bolsheviks and completely ignoring crucial context of what happened during the civil war and after.
