When did anti-communist attacks that denounce communists as "Aka(red)" began?
During the French Revolution, the Red Flag was used by those in power, but the people won, and from 1792 the Red Flag became the people's flag.

On the first May Day in 1890, trade unions raised a red flag, which became ''communism = red''.

The overthrow of the autocratic power of the Tsar in Russia by the workers and peasants shocked the world's powers, and since then, attacks on the Communist Party began in Japan and other parts of the world.
