    Some people are just stupid, don’t worry evolution will deal with them.

    communism – community ownership of the property
    anarchism – private ownership of the property
    They are not the same so I dunno why people link them together.

    Ummm, actually, no, they are not opposites. Communism is essentially an economic theory/system, and anarchism is literally “without a governing force or hierarchy”. There ARE anarcho-capitalists and also anarcho-communists, and many primitive societies were successful with anarcho-communism. But the two should not be equated because they can and do exist quite independent of each other, one being economics and the other a system of (non) government.
    Too many folk look at the Socialist regimes of the Soviet Union or China or Cuba and call them Communism. They are no more communist than a frog is a fish.

    No one is “affiliating” them.

    Communism will often ask itself under different flags just for the purpose of overthrowing whatever existing political system is already in place. Once the old system is overthrown, the communists move in and take over. You need look no further than the Bolshevik Revolution to see how they do it.
