At least in the US self-proclaimed comunists are on the same side of those that want to completely decriminalize undocumented immigration and stop deportations (which arguably is almost exactly what capitalists want, an entire class of non-citizens ready to be exploited with less legal protections that they can point toward as a distraction).

The problem with comunism is not that it is a faulty ideology, but that even if you tried to start a reasonable organization about it you will be overrun by mindless ideologues.

I have to imagine US communists want those undocumented immigrants to gain citizenship too, putting them firmly opposed to the wishes of the capitalists. Many of them would also view immigrants as a reaction to capitalist influence on foreign policy, putting the two sides even further apart.
