One thing I don't really understand is what you mean by the hammer and sickle representing "something else entirely," or that you're "bringing it into thr 21st century." The hammer and sickle is used by communist parties around the world that are presently in power and building socialism, such as the CPC in the PRC. The h&s is linked to socialism and socialist movements both past and present, that's why orgs use it as identification with that internationalist movement in the present day.
