The flag of the Communist International is red. All communists see the red flag as their symbol hence REDS. The association of red with the radical left dates back centuries. It's likely that it began with an association between red and sacrifice, conflict, revolution (bloodshed).
Communists are called "Reds" because the color red has historically been associated with revolutionary movements and socialist ideologies. The term gained popularity during the Russian Revolution of 1917, where the Bolsheviks, who established the first communist state, used the color red as a symbol of their movement.
