To be fair, being considered a threat to national security and held as a pariah for having communist ideas is hardly a recent development in the US.

Yeah, turns out of one thinks, "maybe the relentless pursuit of growth above anything else is bad" is pretty scary to some folks?

If that's the defining characteristic of being a communist, then the defining characteristic of being a capitalist must be thinking "maybe the relentless pursuit of financial equality above anything else is bad".

If both of those things are true, then I would guess that at least 90% of people in the world are simultaneously capitalists and communists.
