Using Lenin for communism jokes is kinda outdated and gives some bad vibes. Aren't there any other fresh figures for it available or they haven't born yet?
Seriously, one of the top 5 all time betrayers of socialism is not the mascot.
Still better than Stalin though, although I am not a big fan of Lenin either. After all, if socialism is not free, it isn't truly socialism.
It's not like there have been successful communism or socialist states that weren't authoritarian hellholes. Soviet union wasn't even communist, it was one-party authoritarian state which goes against the core idea of communism or socialism (power was for the state, not distributed in society/between workers)
I totally agree. That is why we need to, at least, create a fixtional character as a good example for it, rather than using bad examples of reality. I mean something like a mascot.
“Comrade Mao Vissarionovich Tito-Castro the four headed titan, feller of remuneration” sounds cute and comfy
Now that's an Elden Ring DLC that would deserve GOTY
Makhno? Zapata?
I am not familiar with their activities in this field, so I can't answer your question.
No clue what Makhno is, but Zapata is along the lines Amish communities in US, except in Mexico and with different ideology.
Ie. The only reason they don't collapse and function is because they're within a state. They really like to roleplay that they're not, tho
Add Rojava to that list
pete seeger? Some famous socialist musician seems like a good fit for a mascot
