Our issues with Russia during the Cold War were not limited to Communism. Our problem with Russia stemmed from the disagreement over how to rebuild Germany after WWII. Communism played into that, of course, because America didn't want Germany to be a communist nation.
Communism is part of the Socialist ideology, and Germany had previously been run by the National Socialists, or Nazi's, which is another reason America didn't want Communism in Germany. There are several types of communism, including Marxism and utopian communism. The main properties of communism deal with a common ownership of property, a classless society basically. On paper, communism is brilliant...in real life applications, however, it never works because of the human element.

Censorship of all media Only one political party is allowed

Like christianity there are many different versions, most of which are corruptions of the original idea.
Like christianity the most basic of the ideals is a distate for personal wealth and power, all property being held in common for the good of the community and all decisions on the welfare of the community being made on a joint basis.
