The hammer and sickle has much wider acceptance.
It's still the symbol of
Aeroflot, it's a popular design on t-shirts and the like, and variants
incorporating the hammer and sickle or other work-related symbols (spade,
torch and hoe in the case of the British Labour Party's old symbol) have
enjoyed considerable popularity and virtually no controversy. The regime
was murderous but the ideals it traded on were not.
I'm sure you can find millions of kulaks who would politely disagree
with you. No, wait, you won't -- they all starved to death.
