Is there a specific reason LeVeyanists/LaVeyan Satanists tend to be anti-communist? (lemmygrad.ml)

Don't get me wrong, I know Anton LaVey is a huge piece of shit regarding his flirtations with fascist attitudes and eugenics. I've known a few of them and they tend to have straight up obnoxious opinions on communists despite the fact that we both share a lot of the same criticisms of religion. Then there's LaVeyanist groups attacking leftist groups as well.

Generally, it seems like there's a lot of left-leaning ones with a good mass of reactionaries with a anti-theist bend. Is there a reason the anti-communism comes into play here though?

Could also purely be anecdote. Reason I post is because I'm curious on the thoughts you all have.

Their manifesto literally told them to be vegan. 99% of them aren't. They're beliefs are idealistic and they aren't even good at being that
