Communists
Why were people so fearful of communists during the cold war, was it just the possibility of enticing revolution? I'm referring to the individual sympathisers as opposed to the USSR/China as a whole.

Every oppressive society needs an Enemy, a Bogeyman.
Capitalists - the rich, if you will - never want the workers (the poor) to turn their rightful anger on them, so it is in their interests to maintain an enemy - it used to be the Communists, now it is messier - foreigners, Moslems, Europeans.
That the Soviet Union went badly wrong in its goal of socialism is another argument, and as another oppressive regime, it suited its purposes having the West as Bogeyman.
You have to stand back from it all and decide whose side you’re on.
