Why do you think Americans are so especially anti-communist/anti-socialist?
What "Americans" are you referring to?
American elite loved Communism, American banksters financed the "Russian Revolution".
Stalin was an ally of the "free world" in WWII, they called him "uncle Joe".
Leading American financiers were Communist spies.
Harry Dexter White (October 9, 1892 – August 16, 1948) was an American economist and senior U.S. Treasury department official. Working closely with the Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., he helped set American financial policy toward the Allies of World War II while at the same time he passed numerous secrets to the Soviet Union.[1]

As we see, American elite loved Communism more than Nationalism, as long as Communism was a globalist ideology.
In other words, Commies were a tool of Globalists, because Commies were against national states and national identity.
After WWII the Communist regimes abandoned the globalist agenda, because Nationalism won in these countries. Stalin had to support Russian Nationalism to protect his own ass in WWII, because Russians were not ready to die for the "ideals of Comintern".
That is why Stalin is now remembered as a "bad guy", because he did not like (((cosmopolites))).
So the hate, promoted in the (((American))) media against Commies was in reality a hate against nationalism. American intellectuals still loved Trotzki, and American academia was subverted by Communists.
Today they hate Russia even more, than they hated the Soviet Union, precisely for the same reason: Russia became a Christian nationalist state and betrayed the ideals of "international Communism", which was a globalist thing.
It is an absolute taboo to whitewash Nantional Socialism, you will be imprisoned for this in most Western countries.
But in these "free" countries it is OK to whitewash the crimes of Communism, though Commies killed millions and millions of innocent civilians even before National Socialists came to power (because of the deadly threat of Communism) in Germany.
