As communists, we want communism. It's better for us to break the club of anticommunism than think we can avoid it by hiding the label. In doing so, in the equation "communism = Actually Existing Socialism = bad" we should break the second leg, defending existing socialism and engaging honestly. Rather than let fascists beat us anyways as we continue to dream of an ever-more perfect world that will never exist as long as we don't roll our sleeves up and build it, running into the same struggles socialism in real life has already been met with in the process and marring their "perfect" image.
