I looked at a list of OSS project leaders and other programmers recently and was surprised at the popularity of the hammer and sickle symbol in their bios. Upside is that I now know who not to listen to when the next tech drama pops up.

Do you literally mean hammer and sickle? Or is that a literary device?

  Literally the unicode character for hammer and sickle (U+262D)

        I can't blame you for wanting to feel the same rush from promoting cruel radical ideologies with a postironic wink that the aforementioned alt-right leaders feel, so... good luck.
