To be honest that isn't such an issue until it's an ideology enforced by the state. Most ideologies are pretty hostile to other ideologies. However they normally exist in free societies where people can opt in and out of them.

I still don't understand why there aren't many communist communities. Wouldn't it be better if you could opt in or out?

Not sure if you're serious or if this is expert level Socratic method questioning! The lack of choice is the defining characteristic of communism: many of the folks required to make communism work will _never_ go along with it.
