This fear of communism is truely interesting. Fascism is something else, and communism is also not interexchangable to a totalitarian state. That just closes off a whole lot of alternatives to capitalism. Bolshevism or Marxist-Leninism is a theory bound to lead to communism - but which never happened to be true. That can be critized. But that is not to throw away the whole idea of communism, which is a libertarian concept which the authoritarians claimed. You really have to get your politics straight. This really is high school level politics.
Second some seem to be very intimidated by this development. Maybe the upsurge not only of libertarian ideas has also something to do with the fact that many anarchists seem to have forgotten that their place is in society and not in some fringe niche. Something many socialists, communists and marxist-leninists still do know (even though they sometimes also use out-dated vocabulary).
See it as a challenge to become more socially relevant and maybe the race isn't lost. But then you also need to work on the level of your politics, because posting this kind of superficial things on some spray paint really isn't sexy.
