[QUOTE="Paradoxum, post: 68209756, member: 292677"] They are somewhat different, but I think they are both similar in ways which are relevant to whether it's wrong to fly the flag. If you think it's wrong to fly a flag that stands for genocide, you should probably also think it's wrong to fly a flag that stands for slavery. Of course genocide is worse than slavery, but slavery still isn't a minor evil. I'd say that the Nazi and Confederate flags more strongly symbolism genocide and slavery (respectively). But perhaps I'm incorrect, and the Soviet flag should be strongly associated with the wrongs done by the Soviet Union. I suppose it depends on how strongly connected the nations principles were to the wrongs done. Ie: Were the acts done on principle, or something like convenience. (I don't know much about Che Geuvara). [/QUOTE]
