Was there a star above the sickle on the Soviet flag? Users today argue about it on social networks. It all started with a post in English about the new Mandela Effect: "Since when does the Soviet flag have a star on the hammer and sickle? " And we go: "I was born in the Soviet Union in 1976, I saw the flag of the Soviet Union a thousand times. There was no star - I've never seen one above the hammer and sickle," writes one user. Some mention the lines of Yegor Latov: "On my cap: a sickle and a hammer and a star" - but the song is not about the flag. Furthermore, the star was actually on the Soviet flag. She can be seen in many archive photos. "Literally two weeks ago, I explained to the children the heraldry of the Soviet Union flag as a unity of soldiers, workers and peasants on a red background, symbolizing the blood shed in the struggle. This is what I was taught as a child. He was always a star," claims the user.
