It's a bit bizarre that if you have a hammer and sickle on your shirt it's a kind of edgy cool, but if you had a swastika on your shirt you risk being fired/cancelled/arrested

Don't you think that depends where you go? In some parts of the world you'd probaly be killed for it

This is fair, I wonder if in former Soviet spaces the roles are reversed

Also depends where you go I guess. I just know that in the Balkans they are more chill about it, because Tito was one of the 'friendlier' dictators. So some people wish to go back to a united Yugoslavia. Makes sense considering the rising ethnic tensions in the post-yugoslavia days. Most of the eastern european countries however will probably have a more negative stance on this (Poland, CZ etc).

And my bet is that you'll definitely have a hard time in Indonesia, because they still make the communist responsible for a lot of deaths that happened in the 60s - good documentary about it is 'The Act of Killing'. Also Cambodia... dunno about Thailand
